Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • action of DMG Icon-infiltrative ® resin and micro abrasion to mask fluorotic enamel

    Evaluate the action of DMG Icon-infiltrative resin and micro abrasion immediately after application to mask fluorotic teeth by comparison of pre- vs. post-treatment photographs

    immediate after treatment

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • Surface changes

    12 month

  • Clinical characteristics Icon

    3, 6, 9, 12 month

  • Efficacy of infiltration to mask fluorotic teeth long-time

    12 month

Study Arms (2)

Resin infiltration

EXPERIMENTAL

The labial surface of fluorosed teeth (upper front teeth) that are selected for this group will be treated using the resin infiltrant "Icon" (DMG, Germany). This is a minimally invasive treatment to improve the aesthetics by masking the white spots.

Device: Resin infiltration

Microabrasion

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

The labial surface of fluorosed teeth (upper front teeth) that are selected for this group will be treated by microabrasion using the microabrasive material "Opalustre" (Ultradent, USA). This is a minimally invasive treatment to improve the aesthetics by masking the white spots.

Device: Microabrasion

Interventions

Teeth selected for this group will be treated with the resin infiltrant Icon according to the manufacturer's instructions. In short, teeth will be isolated with a rubber dam and the labial tooth surface cleaned with non-fluoride prophylactic paste and pumice. After an etching and drying step (to open the lesion surface), Icon will be applied following the manufacturer's instructions and subsequently light cured, followed by polishing. Digital images are taken before and after the treatment as well as at the follow-up visits (3, 6, 9 and 12 months).

Resin infiltration

The labial surfaces of teeth selected for this group will be isolated and precleaned. Subsequently, the microabrasive material, Opalustre, will be applied according to the manufacturer's instructions, using a rubber cup at low speed (5 times each for 5 seconds). Between each of the applications the surface is washed by flushing water using a syringe. Digital images are taken before and after the treatment as well as at the follow-up visits (3, 6, 9 and 12 months).
