Comparing the effect of fluoride containing remineralizing agents and Er: YAG laser on enamel Demineralization and surface microhardness around Orthodontic Brackets (An In vitro study)
Aya Fahim Abdel Aziz;
Abstract
The formation of white spot lesions, or enamel demineralization, around fixed orthodontic attachments is a common complication during and following fixed orthodontic treatment, which marks the result of a successfully completed case. Preventive programs must be emphasized to all orthodontic patients which include
- Educating and motivating the patients for excellent oral hygiene practice
- Enhancing the enamel resistance using topical fluoride and additional new methods as using dental laser.
Aim of the Study:
The aim of this in vitro study was to:
• Compare the effects of fluoride varnish with added tricalcium phosphate (TCP), fluoride varnish with calcium fluoride (CaF2) and Er: YAG laser irradiation on:
1- Enamel demineralization around orthodontic brackets histologically.
2- Microhardness change of enamel around orthodontic brackets.
- Educating and motivating the patients for excellent oral hygiene practice
- Enhancing the enamel resistance using topical fluoride and additional new methods as using dental laser.
Aim of the Study:
The aim of this in vitro study was to:
• Compare the effects of fluoride varnish with added tricalcium phosphate (TCP), fluoride varnish with calcium fluoride (CaF2) and Er: YAG laser irradiation on:
1- Enamel demineralization around orthodontic brackets histologically.
2- Microhardness change of enamel around orthodontic brackets.
