Clinical Evaluation of an Experimental Remineralization Product

March 6, 2026 updated by: Ivoclar Vivadent AG

Clinical Study of Tooth Enamel Remineralization Using DoReMin Product

The study is designed as a split-mouth randomised controlled study. This means within the mouth of one patient one tooth with an initial lesion is treated and coated with the Experimental Remineralization product whereas another comparable tooth with an initial lesion is left untreated. Patients are included upon meeting the inclusion criteria as defined for this clinical trial. In the test group, a remineralization of the incipient carious lesion is expected. The patients are recalled after 1 day (optional), 4 weeks, 4 months and finally after 1 year to evaluate the untreated and treated lesion.

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
White Spot Measurement
Time Frame: Baseline to 1 Year
Analysis of incipient caries or demineralized enamel by using laser fluorescence technology.
Baseline to 1 Year
ICDAS II Visual Scoring System (Codes)
Time Frame: Baseline to 1 Year

Evaluation of the clinical status of the lesions:

0: Sound tooth surface: No evidence of caries after 5 sec air drying

  1. First visual change in enamel: Opacity or discoloration (white or brown) is visible at the entrance to the pit or fissure seen after prolonged air drying
  2. Distinct visual change in enamel visible when wet, lesion must be visible when dry
  3. Localized enamel breakdown (without clinical visual signs of dentinal involvement) seen when wet and after prolonged drying
  4. Underlying dark shadow from dentin
  5. Distinct cavity with visible dentin
  6. Extensive (more than half the surface) distinct cavity with visible dentin
Baseline to 1 Year
