Not Applicable
Not yet recruiting
Conditions
White Spot Lesion
Interventions
Other: Remineralization gel
Registration Number
NCT05868603
Lead Sponsor
Marmara University
Brief Summary

The aim of the study is to treat white spot lesions that occur after orthodontic treatment.

Different gels will be used for remineralization. The study will consist of 45 people between the ages of 15-18. 45 people will be divided into 3 groups.

Detailed Description

Oral hygiene training will be given to each group and a toothpaste containing 1450 ppm fluoride will be given to brush their teeth twice a day.

Essix appliance with reservoir will be made by taking impressions from 30 patients. Remineralization gel will be put into the Essix appliance for 5-7 minutes twice a day for one month.

Remineralization gel with calcium glycerophosphate (R.O.C.S.® Medical Mineral Gel, Russia)Remineralization gelRemineralization gel containing calcium glycerophosphate (R.O.C.S.® Medical Minerals Gel, Russia) will be put into the Essix appliance with a reservoir for 5-7 minutes twice a day for one month. Before and after the applying remineralization gel, the laser fluorescence values will measure with a DIAGNOdent pen( KaVo Dental corporation, East Main street Lake Zurich, lL).
