Silver fluoride and light therapy for sensitive molars in children
Part of Genetic & congenital, Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This study tests a treatment for children with a condition called molar-incisor hypomineralization (MIH), which causes weak, sensitive molars. The treatment uses a special silver fluoride liquid and light therapy to reduce pain and sensitivity.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Child is between 7 and 12 years old
- Diagnosed with molar-incisor hypomineralization (patchy, soft enamel on first permanent molars)
- The molars must be sensitive to touch, cold, or hot
- Child can cooperate during dental visits
- Parent or guardian must give permission
- No other enamel conditions (like fluorosis or genetic issues), no recent desensitizing treatments, and no allergy to silver

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 study looks at markers of inflammation in the gums of children with a condition called molar-incisor hypomineralization (MIH), which causes molars and front teeth to have weak enamel. The goal is to see if gum health is affected in these children, which could lead to better dental care.
This trial tests two treatments for sensitive teeth that have a condition called molar incisor hypomineralization (MIH), which causes weak enamel and pain. It aims to see if a special varnish or gel can reduce the sensitivity and improve comfort.
This study compares two ways to make dental numbing more effective for children with MIH (a condition that causes chalky spots on teeth). It tests whether silver diamine fluoride or cold therapy applied inside the mouth helps the numbing medicine work better, so your child may feel less discomfort during dental work.
This study tests a new treatment for children with a tooth condition called MIH that causes sensitive and weakened molars. It combines a special light therapy and a new filling material to help reduce pain and make the fillings last longer.
This study tests whether applying silver diamine fluoride (a cavity-stopping liquid) changes how well local numbing works during dental treatment for certain tooth defects. It may help determine the safest and most comfortable way to treat weak, cavity-prone molars in children.
