About

The aim of this study is to evaluate the addition of new technology of resin modified glass-ionomer in comparison to resin infiltration in treating post-orthodontic white spot lesions; both applies into the same patient's mouth; to reveal which material will have more clinical satisfactory performance inside the oral cavity and to overcome the high expensive cost in treating such clinical cases

---

35 participants in 2 patient groups

Vanish xt Extended Contact Varnish

Experimental group

Description:

Vanish xt Extended Contact Varnish is a resin modified glass ionomer cement and fluoride varnish used to treat white spot lesions to be more resistant to early caries progression.

Treatment:

Drug: Vanish xt Extended Contact Varnish

Resin infiltration

Active Comparator group

Description:

Resin infiltration is a low viscous resin infiltrates into small pores of white spot lesions to block entrance of bacteria into dentinal tubules of the tooth and more resistant to early caries progression.

Treatment:

Drug: resin infiltration
