Aesthetic caries infiltration - Long-term masking efficacy after 6 years.

Objectives: This study aimed to evaluate the masking efficacy of caries infiltration technique of initial caries lesions (ICL) six years after debonding and single treatment.

Methods: In 10 adolescents, 74 ICL (ICDAS 2) in 74 teeth were treated by resin infiltration (Icon, DMG) at a mean (SD) of 1.2 (1.

Correlation of quantitative light-induced fluorescence and qualitative visual rating in infiltrated post-orthodontic white spot lesions.

Objectives: The aim of this prospective, clinical single-centre study was to evaluate the masking efficacy of post-orthodontic resin infiltration after 12-month follow-up and correlate quantitative and qualitative outcome measures.

Methods: Patients with completed fixed orthodontic treatment and the presence of one or more vestibular active non-cavitated white spot lesion/s (WSL) [ICDAS 1 or 2 (International Caries Detection and Assessment System)] were provided with resin infiltration 3-12 months after bracket removal. All patients (n = 31) participating before (t0) intervention were invited again and examined after 12 months (t2).
