Detailed Description

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

A Randomized Clinical Trial was taken Fatima Jinnah Dental College Hospital, Karachi, from 1st November 2019 To 30th April 2020. Total 30 teeth in each group were included. Preoperatively shade was checked. The mixture was applied 10 times or more during the same session. Total treatment time was around 30 minutes. Every patient received entire microabrasion treatment. At the end of the treatment, neutral sodium fluoride gel was applied. Then changes in shade were checked. Descriptive statistics were calculated.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

GROUP A (HYDROCHLORIC ACID)

Total 30 teeth in each group were included. Preoperatively shade was checked with VITA classical A1-D4® shade guide. The mixture (hydrochloric acid pumice compound) was applied 10 times or more during the same session. Total treatment time was around 30 minutes. Every patient received entire microabrasion treatment. At the end of the treatment, neutral sodium fluoride gel was applied. Then change in shade was checked again with VITA classical A1-D4® shade guide.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

enamel microabrasion

Intervention Type OTHER

It is a non-restorative, conservative treatment that works both chemically and mechanically to remove up to 0.2 mm of affected enamel per application. Pumice either mixed with 18% hydrochloric acid or 5.25% sodium hypochlorite was used to remove fluorosis stains.

GROUP B ( SODIUM HYPOCHLORITE)

Total 30 teeth in each group were included. Preoperatively shade was checked with VITA classical A1-D4® shade guide.The mixture (sodium hypochlorite pumice compound) was applied 10 times or more during the same session. Total treatment time was around 30 minutes. Every patient received entire microabrasion treatment. At the end of the treatment, neutral sodium fluoride gel was applied. Then change in shade was checked again with VITA classical A1-D4® shade guide.
