In order to longitudinally evaluate the surface integrity of teeth affected by Molar Incisor Hipomineralization (MIH), 45 childs will be randomized trhough three preventive treatments, resulting int t
G2/n = 15
G3/n = 15). Randomization: Because of the inclusion process it is based on a continuous form, the randomization will be aided by an eletronic tool ("True Random Number Service" - www.random.org). The
