Comparing two teeth cleaning methods for stained kids' teeth
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This trial tests if a special air-polishing method using erythritol powder is better than regular polishing at keeping children's tooth stains from coming back after a deep cleaning. It may help if your child has dark stains on their teeth and is healthy.
