Participant Flow

Subjects were recruited from patients seeking treatment at the University of Alabama at Birmingham, School of Dentistry, USA, and through advertisements. The first participant was enrolled in August 2015 and the last was enrolled in August 2017.

Within-person study (split-mouth design): Per participant at least one lesion pair (two lesions on seperate teeth) were included. These two lesions were randomly allocated to either treatment (resin infiltration) or control (mock treatment) group resulting in paired lesions within the participants. For some participants more than one lesion pair was included.

Unit of analysis: Lesions

Resin Infiltration / Mock Treatment (Split-mouth; Participants With Paired Lesions)
Within-person study (split-mouth design): For each participant at least one pair of lesions has been included, with one lesion per pair having been randomized to the treatment group (resin infiltration) and the other to the control group (mock treatment). Resin infiltration or Mock treatment was performed at baseline (study start) according to manufacturers' instructions for the respective study lesion; in addition to general caries preventive measures (standard-oral care hygiene treatment, diet counselling and fluoride regimen).

Baseline Characteristics

In this within-person study (split-mouth design), at least one pair of lesions has been included per participant, with one lesion per pair being allocated to the treatment group (resin infiltration) and the other to the control group (mock treatment). Consequently, half of all study lesions belong to the treatment group and half to control group.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 3 years

Population: This study was terminated. The 3 year follow up was not reached for any enrolled participant at the time of termination.

Cumulative number of study lesions that have progressed to a state were an invasive intervention (filling) has been required to restore the teeth as determined via an dental examination (baseline versus 3 year follow up).

Outcome measures

Outcome data not reported

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: 6 months and 12 months

Population: The intended follow up time frame was 6, 12, 24 and 36 months. However, due to the termination of the study, only the 6 and 12 month follow ups were completed for the enrolled participants.

Change in categorical lesion depth (progression to next depth category lesion; E1-\>E2-\>D1-\>D2-\>filling) as measured by pairwise comparison of radiographs (baseline versus follow up time point). E1 (lesion within the outer half of enamel), E2 (inner half of enamel), D1 (outer third of dentin), D2 (middle third of dentin). Reference: Anusavice K.
