Abstract

|
|
Objective: I-Con, infiltrative flow resin was introduced in order to control the white spot on the tooth enamel.
Methods: Sixty specimens from 10 teeth were distributed as 6 groups as white spot group, sealant group and I-Con applied group, both on occlusal and at the proximal surface, and treated with the sealant or I-Con for each classified group, for 10 specimens. Micro-hardness test on dentinal surface was measured for each sample and SEM and stereo microscopic findings were observed for each group and compared the infiltration phenomena on the enamel with the white spot.
Results: It revealed the most in micro-hardness in I-Con applied group and sealant group was the next, and the least in white spot group (p＜0.05). Infiltration of the resin was shown in I-Con specimen, on the other hands, remarkable marginal smoothen in sealant and irregular or roughness in white spot specimen, by observing with SEM and stereo microscope.
Conclusion: I-Con, infiltrative flow resin was recommended to apply for white spot enamel as early caries prevention or control.
