Brief Summary

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

The aim of the following study is to evaluate che clinical efficacy of a toothpaste with biomimetic hydroxyapatite for the management of Molar-Incisor Hypomineralization. Patients who agree to participate to the study will use Biorepair toothpaste for the first 7 days of the month for 3, 6 and 9 months. The following indices will be measured: BEWE, Bleeding Index, Gingival index, Plaque index and the dental sensitivity test. The contralateral tooth will be used as control if not affected by MIH; otherwise, adjacent teeth will be considered.

Detailed Description

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

Informed consent will be signed by the parents of the patients underage; patients will be asked the approval for the attendance of the study.

Adult patients will sign the informed consent for the treatment and for processing personal data for research purpose, with their approval for the attendance of the study.

Patients will be given for free a toothpaste with biomimetic hydroxyapatite (Biorepair Enamel-Repair Shock Treatment) and the Investigator will explain the correct procedures for home oral care. The toothpaste will be applied the first 7 days of the month for 9 months with a specific tray.

Teeth will be randomly assigned to:

* Trial group: 1 tooth with MIH from 1 quadrant will be treated with the biomimetic hydroxyapatite toothpaste. The applications will be performed for the first 7 days of the month for 9 months (1 application per day that lasts 10 minutes).
* Control group: 1 contralateral tooth with MIH will not be treated with the biomimetic hydroxyapatite toothpaste Patients will be visited after 1, 2, 3, 6 and 9 months from the baseline. For each visit, BEWE index, Bleeding Index, Gingival index, Plaque index and Dental sensitivity test. Tooth with MIH will be assessed, together with its contralaterals as control. If the contralateral tooth should suffer from MIH too, measurements will be carried out on the adjacent tooth.

Trial Group

Teeth from this group suffer from MIH. They will be evaluated after home oral care with BioRepair toothpaste containing microRepair®.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Biorepair Shock Treatment

Intervention Type OTHER

Teeth from this group will undergo the application of Biorepair Toothpaste for the first 7 days of the month for 9 months (1 application per day that lasts 10 minutes).
