August 28, 2024 updated by: Hadeer Mohammed Abd El wahab

Caries Inhibitory Effect of Nano Silver Varnish Versus Tri Calcium Phosphate Varnish Among Children With Visual Impairment

Assessment of pH,streptococcus mutants count, lactobacillus count and immunoglobulin A among visually impaired children after nano silver varnish application it tri calcium phosphate phosphate varnish application

Study Overview

Detailed Description

Sixty children will be randomly divided into three equal treatment groups, composed of 20 children each, according to the type of material used as follows:

  • Group I: children will receive oral health education and nano silver fluoride varnish.
  • Group II: children will receive oral health education and tri calcium phosphate varnish.
  • Group III: children will receive oral health education

for all children ,Assessment of pH, streptococcus mutants count, lactobacillus count and immunoglobulin A will be assessed at baseline, one day , 3 months and 6 months after application
