Peptide vs fluoride varnish for white spots on teeth
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This study compares a new peptide treatment to a standard fluoride varnish for reversing small white spots on teeth (early cavities) in teens and young adults. You’ll receive one treatment on one side of your mouth and the other treatment on the other side, and we’ll see which works better.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have at least one small white spot on both sides of your mouth that doesn’t need a filling yet.
- You are between 15 and 25 years old.
- Your teeth are in generally good health (no serious erosion, enamel defects, or many fillings on front surfaces).
- You haven’t had any fluoride varnish or treatment before the study.
- You are not taking medications that affect your saliva, and you are medically healthy (ASA I).

This study looks at two treatments for early tooth decay (white spot lesions) on premolars. It compares how well each treatment reduces the depth of these lesions.
This trial compares two tooth treatments to see which one works better for “white spot” areas that can appear after braces come off. If you have mild plaque buildup and at least one white spot on front teeth, you may be eligible to test one of these options and improve tooth surface healing.
This trial tests a home whitening gel (10% carbamide peroxide) to see if it can make white spots on front teeth less noticeable and if people are happy with the results. It might help if you have white spots and want a simple way to improve your smile.
This trial tests if fluoride sealants can prevent white spots and cavities on the front teeth of teens getting braces. It may help keep your teeth healthy while you wear braces.
This trial tests whether a new peptide treatment or a calcium-phosphate paste works better at reversing early white-spot cavities on front teeth. If you're a young adult with early decay on your front teeth, you may be able to join.
This study tests whether a new coating (PRG Barrier Coat) can heal white spot lesions on permanent front teeth in children, compared to a standard fluoride varnish. The study wants to see if this treatment can help stop early decay and improve the appearance of teeth.
