Alternatives for the treatment of white chalky lesions arising from fixed orthodontic treatment
Journal Title: Medicine in Evolution - Year 2018, Vol 0, Issue 4
Abstract
The main purpose of this study was to present to the patients the risks of chalky white spots’ appearance during fixed orthodontic treatment in the case in which the hygiene measures recommended are not complied with. I have chosen to treat a number of 15 patients who at the end of the fixed orthodontic treatment showed visible chalky white spots on the vestibular sides of the teeth. The initial sample has been divided at random in 5 parts, each featuring a different method of treatment.
