About this study

Official title: Reminerlization Potential of Innovative Biomimetic Material Versus Casein Phosphopeptide-amorphous Calcium Phosphate in Caries White Spot Lesions "A Randomized Clinical Trial"

to remineralize the white spot caries lesions after orthodontic treatment , the investigator will use two different materials ( Clinpro tooth creme versus Gc tooth mousse) and will compare between their effects in remineralization of white spot caries lesions.

Read the detailed description

Dental caries is the localized destruction of tooth tissues by acids, especially lactic acid, produced by the fermentation of dietary carbohydrates by bacteria in dental plaque. Demineralization can be arrested or reversed when remineralization agents are applied to incipient carious or non-cavitated carious lesions. A large number of therapeutic agents including non-fluoridated products have been developed to promote enamel remineralization. The process of restoring lost mineral ions to the tooth structure and strengthening the lattice work is known as remineralization.

The development of decalcification around orthodontic brackets and bands, commonly called white spot lesions (WSLs), is often observed in patients with poor oral hygiene during treatment .In many instances, these WSLs continue to be visible after the removal of fixed appliances and after natural remineralization. The remineralized enamel crystallites are generally more resistant to decalcification and also have the same orientation as the original enamel crystallites. The early enamel lesions have a potential for remineralization with an increased resistance to further acid challenge, particularly with the use of enhanced remineralization treatments.

Recaldent™ is derived from the milk protein, casein. For many years it has been known that milk and its derivatives have a tooth protective effect. Research has shown that this activity is due to a part of the casein protein called Casein Phosphopeptide (or CPP), which carries calcium and phosphate ions in the form of Amorphous Calcium Phosphate (or ACP) which used in reminerlization of white spot caries lesions.

Clinpro tooth crème (3M ESPE) is a 0.21% w/w sodium fluoride (NaF) anti caries dentifrice that contains 950 ppm fluoride and a functionalized tricalcium phosphate (f-TCP) ingredient.One major advantage of this calcium phosphate system is that it is stable in aqueous environment and also does not affect the fluoride activity added in the dentifrices. Furthermore,it has been suggested that fluoride combination with f-TCP not only provides greater remineralization in terms of microhardness and fluoride uptake, but also decreases the dose of fluoride required to achieve the same degree of remineralization,

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Clinpro Tooth CremeDrug

    Also called Anti-Cavity Paste with Tri-Calcium Phosphate

    The participant will be instructed to Place a pea-sized amount of Clinpro Tooth Crème on a soft bristled toothbrush and brush teeth for at least two minutes then after brushing the patient will rinse out his mouth with water and spit out. It will be used twice daily at first in the morning and before sleep.

  • GC tooth mousseDrug

    The participant will be instructed to squeeze a small amount of GC Tooth Mousse out onto a clean finger. A cotton tip, swab or custom tray are suitable application methods as it will Applied directly onto his tooth surfaces and leave undisturbed for three minutes then he will be instructed to Spread any residual crème around the mouth with his tongue and hold for a further one to two minutes then the participant will expectorate thoroughly and if possible he should avoid rinsing. Any GC Tooth Mousse remaining in the mouth can be left to gradually dissipate. The participant will be instructed to avoid eating or drinking for 30 minutes following application.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. esthetic assessment

    Spectrophotometer ( L, a, b) will be used to measure the change in the shade of the white spot lesions during the study

    Measured: baseline, after 1 month , 3 months and 6 months of the application

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. patient compliance

    The participants compliance will be detected by a questionnaire by asking the patient to describe his satisfaction to the total outcome of our intervention by giving a score from 1-10

    Measured: 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Clinpro Tooth Creme and GC tooth mousse in people with White Spot Lesion of Tooth, run by Cairo University at 1 site in Egypt.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 30 Jan 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Egypt. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Each site lists its own contact: choose the nearest one under Trial locations. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

esthetic assessment (time frame: baseline, after 1 month , 3 months and 6 months of the application). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 30 Jan 2019.
