Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Based on previous studies carried out in a population residing in the same region, it was estimated that the resin infiltration technique is able to reduce in half the loss of dental structure in MIH permanent molars that have white or yellowish-brown demarcated opacities, compared to the control group over a 24-month period<br>
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
It is expected that there is correlation between the quality and amount of supragingival biofilm of the teeth evaluated with their protein profile and caries activity
