Summary

The aim of the present study is to evaluate the efficacy of a novel fluoride varnish (NFV) in preventing white spot lesion development in adolescents during and after treatment with fixed orthodontic appliances.

Conditions

  • Orthodontic Appliance Complication

Interventions

OTHER

Fluoride varnish

The study will employ a double-blind, randomized placebo-controlled design with two parallel groups. The intervention will start at onset of the fixed appliances and will be finalized one year after debond. The primary outcome will be incidence of white spot lesions on the labial surfaces of the maxillary incisors, canines and premolars, as assessed from high-resolution digital photos. The secondary outcome is the prevalence of WSLs at debonding.
