Summary

This is a three year single site clinical evaluation of a FDA approved (510(k):K100062) lesion penetrating resin used to infiltrate and hamper progression of proximal carious lesions. The purpose of this study is to compare lesion progression infiltrated with (Icon, Hamburg, Germany) to a similar sized lesion in the same patient treated with a placebo. The study is designed as a randomized, controlled, prospective clinical trial with a three year follow-up evaluation period.

The clinical site will enroll 150 subjects (in the age range of 19 years or older) with 2 study lesions. The patients will be evaluated at six time points over a period of 3 years. Lesion status and caries risk will be monitored at 6-month intervals, while radiographic evaluation will be conducted at 12-month intervals at 1-, 2- and 3-year recall visits.

Conditions

  • Caries
  • Salivary Function

Interventions

DEVICE

Resin infiltration

The study is a split-mouth design. One tooth with a proximal caries lesion will randomly receive the infiltrating resin (Icon) while the other will receive a placebo, according to the manufactures´ instruction for Icon. In short, teeth will be isolated with a rubber dam and the tooth surface cleaned with non-fluoride prophylactic paste and pumice. The Icon material will be applied following the manufacturer's instructions and light cured, followed by polished using interproximal finishing/polishing strips (Sof Lex, 3M ESPE, St Paul, MN). Subjects will be given a letter to take to their local dentist asking them not to treat the selected lesions without informing the investigator first.

OTHER

Mock treatment

For the mock treatment the procedure will be identical to the "Resin Infiltration" intervention, with the exception that a placebo will be used. Essentially, syringes identical to the Icon materials will be supplied by DMG for the placebo procedure. The syringes will be filled with solutions having the same consistency and color as the Icon material.
