About
This study is a randomized controlled trial involving 118 children ages between 4 and 5 years to assess the remineralization effect of Casein Phosphopeptide-Amorphous Calcium Phosphate (CPP-ACP) on white spot lesions in primary teeth using Quantitative Light-induced Fluorescence (QLF) system, and compare that with fluoride alone or combined use of fluoride and CPP-ACP.
Full description
Aim: To assess the remineralization effect of CPP-ACP on white spot lesions in primary teeth using QLF system, and compare that with fluoride alone or combined use of fluoride and CPP-ACP.
Materials and Methods:
o Study design:
The present study is a randomized control trial (RCT).
Study setting: The present study will be conducted at Kindergartens, Irbid, Jordan. A list of schools will be obtained from the development sector, schools will be invited to be participate in the study. Children will be randomly allocated into groups.
Study procedure:
Group 1: children will brush their teeth with CPP-ACP twice daily.
Group 2: children will brush their teeth with fluoridated toothpaste twice daily.
Group 3: children will brush their teeth with fluoridated toothpaste and apply CPP-ACP immediately after tooth brushing, twice daily.
The researcher will do the morning application at school, the evening application will be done at home with help of the parent. The researcher will give oral hygiene and brushing instructions to the parents and also diet advice. An oral hygiene chart will be given to monitor twice-daily tooth brushing.
