Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Enamel demineralization cariogenic challenge after 28 days , as determined by clinical examination using ICDAS II content and Laser Fluorescence DIAGNOdent® , at least 40 % of the teeth, measured at the beginning and end of the cariogenic challenge. ;At the end of 28 days , all specimens received cariogenic site showed enamel demineralization, that is, developed white lesions of enamel, a significant difference ( p < 0.001) between the values ??of clinical examination using ICDAS II index and Fluorescence Laser DIAGNOdent® , baseline and 28 days after the cariogenic challenge. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Comparison of the effectiveness of different materials in the clinical treatment of permanent teeth with white lesions enamel ( demineralization ) resulting from biofilm accumulation during orthodontic treatment . To evaluate the materials will be used: toothpaste without fluoride, toothpaste with fluoride ( Sodium Fluoride 1450 ppm fluoride ) and fluoridated mouthwash ( Sodium Fluoride ( NaF) to 0.05 %) in the period of 07 days . And for finding the expected outcomes , it is considered a variation of at least 5 % in the assessment , as measured in the beginning and end of the 07 days , through clinical examination using ICDAS II index and Laser Fluorescence DIAGNOdent® for what differences are considered statistically significant .;In our study, there was no siginificative drop-out (Only 6%). | — |
