Novamin for weak enamel in children's teeth
Part of Genetic & congenital, Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This study tests a special toothpaste ingredient (Novamin) that may help repair weak enamel on permanent back teeth and front teeth in children and teens. The treatment is applied by a dentist and may strengthen the teeth and reduce sensitivity.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have at least two permanent teeth (back teeth or front teeth) with weak enamel spots (white or yellow patches).
- The enamel damage is mild to moderate — not so severe that more than two-thirds of the tooth is affected or large pieces have broken off.
- You are generally healthy and do not have any major medical conditions.
- You are not currently wearing braces or other orthodontic appliances.
- You are not taking any prescription medications.

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 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 whether cleaning the tooth surface before applying a remineralizing paste makes the treatment more effective for children with mild white or yellow spots on their permanent molars.
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 compares two types of dental sealants applied to the first permanent molars of children aged 6-12 who have a condition called molar incisor hypomineralization (MIH), which means their back teeth have soft or chalky spots. The goal is to see which sealant works better at protecting these teeth from 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.
