In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

This randomized controlled clinical trial aims to evaluate the efficacy of two commercially available toothpastes containing hydroxyapatite in the remineralization of early enamel lesions. The study compares Biorepair® Total Protection Plus, which contains biomimetic microRepair particles, with Bioniq® Repair, a conventional hydroxyapatite-based toothpaste. Forty participants will be randomly assigned to either the trial group (Biorepair®) or the control group (Bioniq®), and both groups will receive quarterly professional dental cleanings and use the assigned toothpaste twice daily for 6 months. The primary outcome is the change in enamel demineralization, assessed by DIAGNOdent Pen scores, in permanent molar fissures and upper central incisors. Secondary outcomes include enamel integrity assessed by DIAGNOcam imaging and ICDAS scores, as well as changes in dental sensitivity (Schiff A
