Evaluation of Enamel Resistance to White Spot Lesion Formation Around Orthodontic Brackets After CO2 Laser Irradiation: A Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial

Damascus University·interventional·Posted Apr 14, 2017·Updated Oct 24, 2017

In Brief

A clinical study evaluating CO2 laser irradiation and Placebo for White Spot Lesion. Completed, enrolled 25 participants across 2 sites.

Detailed Summary

This study aims to evaluate the clinical effect of CO2 laser on enamel resistance to white spot lesions formation around orthodontic brackets. 25 patients needing fixed orthodontic treatment will participate in the study, the CO2 laser will be applied in a split mouth design around orthodontic brackets in two contrast quarters of mouth in every patient and the other quarters will serve as a control. The white spot lesion formation will be monitored around the brackets during the orthodontic treatment after four and twelve weeks of irradiation with laser.
