Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| The primary outcome of the study is to see the changes in salivary bacterial load, which serves as a direct indicator of caries risk modification in high caries risk children along with changes in salivary pH and salivary flow rate, which help evaluate the acid-neutralizing and salivary stimulation effects of the remineralizing agents, which aids caries control in high caries risk individualTimepoint: 1 month. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| A secondary outcome of the study is to assess the sustainability of the effects of remineralizing agents beyond their active usage, through follow-up evaluations after cessation. If favourable results are observed, the findings would warrant further investigation on a larger sample size to validate the outcomes and enhance the reliability of the conclusions.Timepoint: 2 months | — |
