Medical Treatment of Early-Enamel Carious Lesion Using Different Remeneralizing Agents: 2-years Randomized Clinical Trial

Medical Treatment of Early-Enamel Carious Lesion using Different Remeneralizing agents

Study Overview

Detailed Description

Medical management of incipient lesions by application of remineralizing agents like fluoride therapy, amorphous calcium phosphate (ACP), and Casin phosphopeptide amorphous calcium phosphate (CPP-ACP) has proved to be effective in reversing such lesions.

Fluoride was considered the "gold standard" remineralizing agent , However several recent researchers found that; the ideal remineralizing agents should diffuse or deliver calcium and phosphate ions into early enamel lesion.

Calcium-silicate based material such as β-CaSiO3 and β-Ca2SiO4 play an important role in hard tissue regeneration, showing good bioactivity and biocompatibility and can induce bone like apetite formation in stimulated body fluids. when β-CaSiO3 and β-Ca2SiO4 come in contact with saliva it will be dissolve forming silanol group (Si-O ) on the enamel surface which can bind to Ca ions and inducing the precipitation of hydroxyapatite.

In the light of this, this study was designed to compare the remineralization potential of silver diamine flouride/ potassium iodide, casin phosphopeptide amorphous calcium phosphate and experimental tricalcium silicate on early enamel lesions.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
EXPERIMENTAL: silver diamine fluoride-potassium iodide SDF-KI (riva star)
SDF-KI was applied once as a professional application over the early enamel lesions in cervical third of the buccal surface of molar teeth.
SDF-KI (riva star, SDI.Ltd )was applied ( as a professional application) by micro brush over the early enamel lesions on the buccal surface of molar teeth
EXPERIMENTAL: casein phosphopeptide amorphous calcium phosphate CPP-ACP(tooth mousse)
CPP-ACP cream was applied twice daily according to manufacturer's instructions over the early enamel lesions in cervical third of the buccal surface of molar teeth.
CPP-ACP (tooth mousse, GC, Matraville Sydney, Australia) was applied by using micro brush over the early enamel lesions on the buccal surface of the molar teeth twice daily. the patients were instructed to leave it for about 3minutes before rinsing
EXPERIMENTAL: Experimental tricalcium silicate
Experimental tricalcium silicate paste was applied twice daily over the early enamel lesions in cervical third of the buccal surface of molar teeth
prepared tricalcium silicate paste was applied by using micro brush over the early enamel lesions on the buccal surface of the molar teeth twice daily. the patients were instructed to leave it for about 3minutes before rinsing

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Medical Treatment of Early-Enamel Carious Lesion using Different Remeneralizing agents
Time Frame: 2-years after the first application of the remineralizing agents

The primary outcome was the change in laser fluorescence values that was detected by DIAGNODent Pen. The obtained values were interpreted according to the scale provided by the manufacture:

  • Value between (0-13) refers to sound enamel substrate
  • Value between (14-20) refers to early enamel caries
2-years after the first application of the remineralizing agents
