Tooth mouse vs standard fluoride for root cavities
Treatments studied
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This study compares three treatments for cavities on the roots of teeth (the part near the gums). It tests whether a new device called Tooth Mouse, a special fluoride gel, or standard fluoride works best at stopping these cavities. If you have at least three root cavities, this trial might help you find an effective treatment.
