Journal Title: Journal of Medical and Dental Science Research (Quest Journals JMDSR) - Year 2017, Vol 4, Issue 7
Abstract
Background: There are only few in vivo clinical studies evaluating the laser fluorescence for monitoring changes in incipient caries lesions under preventive procedures. Objective: Our study aims to evaluate the effect of mineralizing fluorine varnish on the progression of initial caries of enamel in temporary dentition by laser fluorescence. Material and Methods: Object of observation. 1 group - 100 children aged 3, 4, 5 and 6 years treated with Clinpro ™ White Varnish with TCP (Tri-Calcium phosphate) (3M) – CV. Two groups - 100 children aged 3, 4, 5 and 6 years without treatment with varnish CV. Location of the study - University Medical Dental Center Varna, Clinical Halls for Children's Dentistry, Faculty of Dental Medicine – Varna. Units of observation: Temporary teeth, Caries lesions at level d1 and d2. After processing the results and determination of the highlights was conducted by actual survey data processing package for mathematical and statistical analysis SPSS v 20.0. Results: The comparative analysis of the results showed a significant difference in the five-year-old children in the control group (9,17) and those in the treatment group before treatment (6,42), with the latter being significantly lower (t = 3.27, p<0.01). Results in temporary canines showed significant differences between the control group and the treated group after treatment (t = 5.45, p<0.001) as well as the results before and after treatment with CV varnish (t = 5.04 , P<0.001). The trend was also observed in the results of the temporary first and second molar t = 2.63, p<0.05 and t = 4.76, p<0.001 for the control group and test group after treatment and t = 4.04, p<0.001 and t = 2.80, p<0.05 for values before and after treatment with Clinpro White Varnish with TCP. Conclusion: 1. After the first week, DIAGNOdent pen scores improved from less than three steps for d1b and d2 lesions and improved by two steps for d1a lesions. 2. Increased therapeutic efficacy of dental agents for noninvasive treatment is achieved by enhancing them with fluorides
