Summary

This study aims to investigate the color tone and fluorescence changes that may occur during fixed orthodontic treatment with brackets in patients' teeth using toothpaste with different properties. The study will include routinely taken three-dimensional models, fluorescence photographs, gingival index, periodontal index, ICDAS II, and DMFT index records of patients who have received orthodontic treatment at Erciyes University Faculty of Dentistry and who have been using the same toothpaste for a long time. Three different toothpaste groups were determined to be included in the study. These toothpastes will be examined in three groups: those with fluoride effect, those containing lactoperoxidase, and those without fluoride, which are routinely used by patients. It was decided that there would be 15 individuals in each group in case individuals were excluded from the clinical study to be conducted. As a result, 45 patients, 15 in each group, will be included in the study. This study will use digital models obtained by scanning the upper and lower jaws of the patients included using an intraoral scanner (3shape TRIOS). The reason for this is to evaluate whether there will be a change in the color of the patient's teeth during the orthodontic treatment process by comparing them with the records taken in the later stages of the treatment. Photographic records of the patients will also be taken with the Quantitative Laser-Induced Fluorescence (QLF) device. With this device, the fluorescence color change that occurs on the tooth surfaces will be examined.
