Filter by:white spot lesions are a common problem and are reported in up to 96% of orthodontic patients. In this study, the preventive effect of bioactive gel is evaluated in comparison to fluoride.
Dental cavities are among the most frequent diseases that affect teeth, particularly in patients who are treated with braces due to the difficulty in maintaining good oral hygiene in the presence of the mouth appliances. The white spot lesion (WSL) is the first clinical sign of cavities that presents itself as a milky-white opacity when located on the front face of the tooth. The aim to manage these early lesions focuses on promoting natural remineralization and preventing further demineralization. Various materials have been introduced for management of WSLs including MI paste and MI paste combined with fluoride (MI paste plus). Recently, a new material called resin infiltration has been found to treat these lesions with high esthetic results and great performance. According to the few numbers of in-vivo studies investigating the effectiveness of remineralization products, the aim of the current study is to clinically compare the outcome of the resin-infiltration and etching + MI paste plus to stop and improve the appearance of the WSL on front teeth in patients after treatment with braces.
Dental caries is the primary cause of tooth loss and oral diseases. Dental decay is a continuous pathological process with loss of tooth minerals, demineralization, which involves the destruction of tooth structure from acids. The first sign of early active demineralization is white spot lesions (WSLs) on the tooth surface, meanwhile, subsurface active mineral decomposition.
To evaluate the effectiveness of ginger and rosemary herbals versus sodium fluoride in remineralization of incipient enamel caries.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the addition of new technology of resin modified glass-ionomer in comparison to resin infiltration in treating post-orthodontic white spot lesions; both applies into the same patient's mouth; to reveal which material will have more clinical satisfactory performance inside the oral cavity and to overcome the high expensive cost in treating such clinical cases
The purpose of this study is to determine whether Fluoride varnish + calcium (Clinpro White Varnish) and polipeptide solution (Curodont Repair) are effective in the treatment of remineralization therapy. The investigators will diagnose their alone or in combination effects on white spot lesions. Aesthetics (tooth-colored), remineralization, microbiological effects will be evaluated separately. Spectrophotometer (Vita Easy Shade) , Quantitative Light Fluorescence (QLF), Diagnodent(Cavo Diagnodent) and culture methods in microbiology laboratories are used for aesthetic, remineralization and microbiological assessments. The measurements will be made baseline, 6 weeks, 3 months and 6 months later after the applications and recorded.
It was hypothesized that resin infiltration in conjunction with fluoride varnish treatment of smooth-surface caries lesions in deciduous teeth reduce considerably the progression of treated caries lesions, compared to fluoride varnish therapy only.
Study will look at ability of fluoride varnish to remineralize white spot enamel lesions that can occur around the edge of fixed orthodontic brackets.
Fixed dental braces are associated with the risk of developing White Spot Lesions (WSLs), which appear as white chalky marks on the teeth. They develop as a result of the acid produced by bacteria in dental plaque dissolving the outer surface of the tooth, known as demineralisation. Recently, amorphous calcium phosphate (ACP) stabilised by casein phosphopeptide (CPP) has become available, and it is reported to help rebuild the surface of teeth which have WSLs. CPP-ACP is available incorporated into a crème known as Tooth Mousse (TM). While there appears to be sufficient evidence regarding the use of CPP-ACP in promoting general remineralisation, for the first time this study aims to examine the use of CPP-ACP to treat WSLs in post-orthodontic participants.
