An interventional study of enamel microabrasion in Dental Fluoroses, sponsored by Fatima Jinnah Dental College. Completed at 1 site in Pakistan. Open to participants aged 18 Years to 40 Years, including healthy volunteers. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2022-05-02.
Sponsored by Fatima Jinnah Dental College · Not applicable, Interventional, and Treatment
To compare the clinical effectiveness of hydrochloric acid-pumice compound and sodium hypochlorite-pumice compound in treating dental fluorosis using microabrasion technique.
A Randomized Clinical Trial was taken Fatima Jinnah Dental College Hospital, Karachi, from 1st November 2019 To 30th April 2020. Total 30 teeth in each group were included. Preoperatively shade was checked. The mixture was applied 10 times or more during the same session. Total treatment time was around 30 minutes. Every patient received entire microabrasion treatment. At the end of the treatment, neutral sodium fluoride gel was applied. Then changes in shade were checked. Descriptive statistics were calculated.
24 studies on the registry are indexed under Fluorosis, Dental; 4 are open to participants now.
This study's enrollment of 60 is close to the median of 60 across 18 interventional studies indexed under Fluorosis, Dental.

Exclusion Criteria:
Total 30 teeth in each group were included. Preoperatively shade was checked with VITA classical A1-D4® shade guide. The mixture (hydrochloric acid pumice compound) was applied 10 times or more during the same session. Total treatment time was around 30 minutes. Every patient received entire microabrasion treatment. At the end of the treatment, neutral sodium fluoride gel was applied. Then change in shade was checked again with VITA classical A1-D4® shade guide.
Other: enamel microabrasion

Other: enamel microabrasion
It is a non-restorative, conservative treatment that works both chemically and mechanically to remove up to 0.2 mm of affected enamel per application. Pumice either mixed with 18% hydrochloric acid or 5.25% sodium hypochlorite was used to remove fluorosis stains.
HYDROCHLORIC ACID PUMICE COMPOUND
Tooth shade was recorded at the baseline with the help of VITA classical A1-D4® shade guide. The arrangement of the shades in the VITA classical family of shades is as follows: A1 - A4 (reddish-brownish), B1 - B4 (reddish-yellowish), C1 - C4 (greyish shades), D2 - D4 (reddish-grey).Determination of shade was done under daylight. Closest shade was selected from the shade tab. Effectiveness was marked positive if there was atleast one change in shade from the baseline just after the procedure to shade group from A1-D4. Effectiveness was marked negative if there is no change in shade from the baseline.
Time frame: 30 minutes
