Brief Summary
The present study aimed to compare the remineralisation capacity of white spot enamel lesions between two commercially available tooth pastes (Remin Pro and MI PASTE PLUS), applied at home twice a day on the anterior upper primary teeth by the patient and parents.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (2)
Enamel remineralisation degree
The remineralisation degree was quantified by the change in UF from the baseline (0 day) up to day 10 of twice-daily applications, by evaluation on the 10th day.
10 days
Enamel remineralisation degree
The remineralisation degree was quantified by the change in UF from the 10th day up to the 21st day, after twice-daily applications

Study Arms (3)
REMIN paste
EXPERIMENTALThe child's parents or caregivers were provided with printed instructions for applying the paste at home. The indicated procedure was as follows: application of the remineralisation agent was limited to the tooth's vestibular surface twice a day, after conventional toothbrushing (both in the morning and at night). The maximal amount of paste to be applied was equal to a pea-sized portion (one finger) per surface. The paste was applied using the parent or caregiver's finger across the WSL surface. After the application of the paste, patients were asked to avoid eating or drinking anything for the next hour.
MI PASTE PLUS
EXPERIMENTALThe child's parents or caregivers were provided with printed instructions for applying the paste at home. The indicated procedure was as follows: application of the remineralisation agent was limited to the tooth's vestibular surface twice a day, after conventional toothbrushing (both in the morning and at night). The maximal amount of paste to be applied was equal to a pea-sized portion (one finger) per surface. The paste was applied using the parent or caregiver's finger across the WSL surface. After the application of the paste, patients were asked to avoid eating or drinking anything for the next hour.

Interventions
Te toothastes were applied at home twice a day over the six anterior upper primary teeth
