Enamel cleaning before remineralizing paste for tooth spots
Part of Genetic & congenital, Mouth & dental clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your child has at least two permanent molars with mild white or yellow spots (no broken enamel).
- Your child has at least one permanent molar without any spots.
- The spots are at least 2 millimeters wide (about the size of a pinhead).
- Your child is not allergic to milk proteins (casein).
- The spots are not part of a larger condition like fluorosis or a genetic enamel problem.

This study tests a new way to hide white spots on permanent front teeth in children. It compares a cosmetic masking technique with a resin infiltration method to see which works better.
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.
This study tests a new toothpaste containing nano-hydroxyapatite, a substance that mimics natural enamel, to see if it can help reduce sensitivity and improve the color of teeth affected by Molar-Incisor Hypomineralization (MIH)—a condition where first molars and sometimes front teeth have white, yellow, or brown spots. It is for children aged 6 to 12 who have these spots on at least one permanent molar or baby molar.
This trial tests a special technique (etch-bleach-seal) using Icon® to treat white or cloudy spots on permanent front teeth caused by a condition called Molar Incisor Hypomineralization (MIH). This approach may improve the appearance of these spots without drilling or filling.
This study tests whether a special remineralizing agent can help reverse early white spots (soft spots) on adult teeth before they become cavities. It's for people who have a few small spots but keep their teeth clean.
This study looks at how the color of white, yellow, or brown spots on children's first permanent molars (the back teeth that come in around age 6) relates to the breakdown of the enamel (the outer layer). It aims to help dentists better identify and treat this condition early.
