Brief Summary

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

The goal of this randomized clinical trial is to compare the influence of casein phosphopeptide amorphous calcium phosphate (CPP-ACP), CPP-ACP in combination with fluoride (CPP-ACPF), high fluoride concentration, and conventional fluoride toothpaste on the color and size of white spot lesions (WSLs) in orthodontic patients following bracket removal.
