GIomer versus fluoride varnish for sensitive MIH teeth
Treatments studied
Part of Genetic & congenital, Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This study tests whether GIomer varnish or fluoride varnish works better to reduce tooth sensitivity in children with MIH (a common enamel problem). You may join if your child has sensitive MIH-affected molars or incisors and can attend follow-up visits.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Child is 8 to 10 years old.
- Child is generally healthy (no major body-wide medical problems).
- Child can cooperate with dental visits and follow-up appointments.
- At least one molar or one front tooth (incisor) has MIH and is sensitive to discomfort.
- Your child has not used any desensitizing (sensitivity-reducing) treatment in the last 3 months.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study compares two types of dental sealants (a protective coating) for children with mild MIH (molar-incisor hypomineralization), where the back teeth have sensitive spots. It tests if a newer material (giomer) works better than the standard resin sealant.
This study tests whether a glass ionomer sealant can protect molars with molar-incisor hypomineralization (MIH), a type of enamel weakness, by sealing the biting surface. It may help reduce damage in affected teeth when children still have healthy surfaces that can be sealed.
This trial tests whether a dental sealant or a special laser treatment can prevent cavities and breakdown in first permanent molars affected by MIH (a condition that makes enamel weak). Eligible children have a molar with MIH that hasn't yet broken down and has only minor cavities.
This study tests whether a new pre-etched bioactive sealant works better than a standard resin-based one to protect permanent molars affected by molar incisor hypomineralization (MIH), a condition that makes teeth softer and more prone to cavities. It aims to find a more effective way to prevent decay in these vulnerable teeth.
This study tests two ways to numb teeth—in the bone or in the gum—to see which works better for children with weak enamel on their back teeth and front teeth. It may help find a pain-free way to treat these teeth.
This study tests two methods—a special fluoride liquid and a cold therapy—to see which better numbs the pain of treating MIH-affected molars in children ages 6 to 12. It may help find a gentler way to make dental treatment more comfortable.
