About this study
Official title: Comparison of Three Orthodontic Bonding Systems in White Spot Lesion Development: A Randomized Clinical Trial
The gaol of this randomized clinical trial was to compare the effect of self-etching primer bonding system and one step adhesive bonding system on the development of white spot lesions (WSLs) during fixed orthodontic therapy in comparison with the conventional 3 step bonding system.
All participants will be bonded with similar fixed orthodontic appliances using each type of adhesives for the assigned group. WSLs will be monitored during the orthodontic treatment
Read the detailed description
Objectives: The objective of this clinical trial was to compare the effect of self-etching primer bonding system and one step adhesive bonding system on the development of WSLs during fixed orthodontic therapy in comparison with the conventional 3 step bonding system.
Materials and Methods: Seventy five patients were randomly allocated into 3 groups (Group 1, conventional bonding system, n=25; Group 2, self-etch primer n=25; Group 3, primer mixed with the adhesive composite n=25). Quantitative light-induced fluorescence (QLF) was used to quantify WSL parameters. Images were captured and then analyzed before treatment; 2 months and 4 months after bond-up. Lesion area (Pixels), mean fluorescence loss (∆F) and the number of newly developed WSLs were compared within and between the 3 groups. The significance level was set at P ≤ 0.05.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A study testing Adhesive bonding systems in people with White Spot Lesion, run by Jordan University of Science and Technology at 1 site in Jordan.
The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
The sponsor lists 6 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 2 May 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 1 site in Jordan. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
Are results available for this study?
The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Average lesion fluorescence loss (ΔF%) (time frame: 4 months). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT05738356, which also lists 30 linked publications.
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 2 May 2024.
