Summary

Molar Incisor Hypomineralisation (MIH) is a qualitative defect of enamel that shows asymmetrically involvement of one to four on first permanent molars (FPM) with or without incisor teeth involvement. Hypersensitivity is one of the biggest challenges in the treatment of MIH. A sample of children having a first permanent molar erupted with MIH and suffering of dentin hypersensitivity (DH). All selected 45 first permanent molars will be randomly equally allocated into three groups. DH will be evaluated after the treatments. The primary outcome of this study is change in pain/sensitivity, when evaluated through a Visual Analogue Scale. OHRQoL will be also assessed for all children through the child perceptions questionnaire (CPQ8-10).

Conditions

  • Molar Incisor Hypomineralization

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Photobiomodulation usinf low level laser therapy

Diode laser will be used (SIROLaser Blue®, Sirona, Germany) at a wavelength of 660 nm and a power of 100 mW for 10 sec, corresponding to an energy dose of 1 J. Irradiation will be performed at the hypomineralized area: two irradiations scanning the surface in the mesiodistal direction and two in the occlusogingival direction (perpendicular to the tooth surface) precisely over the lesion, in a uniform scanning motion with relative isolation. Treatment will be performed in 3 sessions with a 72-hour interval between sessions.

PROCEDURE

Resin-based sealant

Cotton rolls and a four-handed technique will be applied for isolation. Scotchbond Universal will be rubbed in the cleaned surface for 20 seconds and air dried for 5 seconds. Afterwards, Fissured Novo Plus will be applied with a syringe. Before light-curing, the presence of air bubbles will be checked and teased out. Light curing for 40 seconds will be done. Occlusion will be checked using articulating paper and necessary adjustments will be done using finishing burs.

PROCEDURE

Glass ionomer sealant

Fuji triage will be applied after activating and mixing the capsule. Light cure for 20 seconds. Occlusion will be checked using articulating paper and necessary adjustments will be done using finishing burs. For the duration of the study, children will be instructed to undergo regular tooth brushing and flossing. Any other needed treatment will be done for the child.
