Summary

This study aims to evaluate the effect of hydroxyapatite-containing toothpaste and mouthwash in preventing white spot lesions in patients undergoing orthodontic treatment.

Participants: 75 patients will be divided into three groups:

* Group A: Participants will brush their teeth three times a day using hydroxyapatite toothpaste and rinse twice a day with a placebo mouthwash.
* Group B: Participants will brush their teeth three times a day using fluoride toothpaste and rinse twice a day with hydroxyapatite mouthwash.
* Group C (Control Group): Participants will brush their teeth three times a day using fluoride toothpaste and rinse twice a day with a placebo mouthwash.

Patients will be followed during their orthodontic treatment to assess the development of white spot lesions.

The study is safe and involves no surgical procedures or risky medications, and will be conducted under the supervision of Principal Investigator Heba Masri after obtaining ethical approval.
