Tooth stain cleaning for children comparing two polishing methods
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This study compares two ways to clean stains off children's teeth after a standard cleaning: one using a special air and powder spray, the other using a traditional rubber cup polish. It looks at which method keeps stains from coming back longer.

This study compares two ways of cleaning teeth before placing protective sealants (thin plastic coatings that prevent cavities) on children's permanent back teeth. It looks at whether a newer, gentler cleaning method ('guided biofilm therapy') helps the sealants stay in place longer than the traditional polishing method.
This study tests two different tooth-colored filling materials for cavities in the back molars of children. It aims to see which material works better and lasts longer, helping to choose the best option for pediatric dental care.
This trial tests if a special cleaning tool using erythritol can safely remove black stains from teeth caused by bacteria. It may help people with at least two stained teeth who haven't used antibiotics recently or have certain health issues.
This trial tests two new acid-based tooth polishing treatments for removing stains caused by fluorosis (a condition from too much fluoride when teeth were forming). The goal is to see which kit is safer and more effective at brightening your teeth.
This trial tests whether a light-activated treatment can reduce the return of dark stains on baby teeth in children aged 4 to 6. It may help keep teeth cleaner for longer without using harsh chemicals.
This study tests a special air-polishing cleaning method using erythritol (a gentle powder) during braces treatment. It may help keep teeth and gums healthier while you have braces.
