Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

to remineralize the white spot caries lesions after orthodontic treatment , the investigator will use two different materials ( Clinpro tooth creme versus Gc tooth mousse) and will compare between their effects in remineralization of white spot caries lesions.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Dental caries is the localized destruction of tooth tissues by acids, especially lactic acid, produced by the fermentation of dietary carbohydrates by bacteria in dental plaque. Demineralization can be arrested or reversed when remineralization agents are applied to incipient carious or non-cavitated carious lesions. A large number of therapeutic agents including non-fluoridated products have been developed to promote enamel remineralization. The process of restoring lost mineral ions to the tooth structure and strengthening the lattice work is known as remineralization.

The development of decalcification around orthodontic brackets and bands, commonly called white spot lesions (WSLs), is often observed in patients with poor oral hygiene during treatment .In many instances, these WSLs continue to be visible after the removal of fixed appliances and after natural remineralization. The remineralized enamel crystallites are generally more resistant to decalcification and also have the same orientation as the original enamel crystallites. The early enamel lesions have a potential for remineralization with an increased resistance to further acid challenge, particularly with the use of enhanced remineralization treatments.

Recaldent™ is derived from the milk protein, casein. For many years it has been known that milk and its derivatives have a tooth protective effect. Research has shown that this activity is due to a part of the casein protein called Casein Phosphopeptide (or CPP), which carries calcium and phosphate ions in the form of Amorphous Calcium Phosphate (or ACP) which used in reminerlization of white spot caries lesions.

Clinpro tooth crème (3M ESPE) is a 0.21% w/w sodium fluoride (NaF) anti caries dentifrice that contains 950 ppm fluoride and a functionalized tricalcium phosphate (f-TCP) ingredient.One major advantage of this calcium phosphate system is that it is stable in aqueous environment and also does not affect the fluoride activity added in the dentifrices. Furthermore,it has been suggested that fluoride combination with f-TCP not only provides greater remineralization in terms of microhardness and fluoride uptake, but also decreases the dose of fluoride required to achieve the same degree of remineralization,

GC tooth mousse

Drug: GC tooth mousse it contains complex of Casein Phosphopeptide,Amorphous Calcium Phosphate ( CPP-ACP ) other name: Tooth Mousse (Bio-available calcium and phosphate, without fluoride)

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

GC tooth mousse

Intervention Type DRUG

The participant will be instructed to squeeze a small amount of GC Tooth Mousse out onto a clean finger. A cotton tip, swab or custom tray are suitable application methods as it will Applied directly onto his tooth surfaces and leave undisturbed for three minutes then he will be instructed to Spread any residual crème around the mouth with his tongue and hold for a further one to two minutes then the participant will expectorate thoroughly and if possible he should avoid rinsing. Any GC Tooth Mousse remaining in the mouth can be left to gradually dissipate. The participant will be instructed to avoid eating or drinking for 30 minutes following application.

clinpro tooth creme

it contains 0.21% Sodium Fluoride, Anti-Cavity Paste is an advanced formula containing an innovative tri-calcium phosphate ingredient

other name:0.21% w/w Sodium Fluoride Anti-Cavity Paste with Tri-Calcium Phosphate

Group Type ACTIVE_COMPARATOR

Clinpro Tooth Creme

Intervention Type DRUG

The participant will be instructed to Place a pea-sized amount of Clinpro Tooth Crème on a soft bristled toothbrush and brush teeth for at least two minutes then after brushing the patient will rinse out his mouth with water and spit out. It will be used twice daily at first in the morning and before sleep.
