“…Uncertainties about the longevity of the obtained results also exist due to the possibility of the resinous material degradation in oral environment and the stability of the improved aesthetics, since studies demonstrate greater susceptibility of resinous infiltrants to discolorations in the long term 15,16,20,33,45 . However, some studies affirm that the resinous infiltration method can be recommended for an aesthetic improvement of white spot lesions clinically by up 2.4.5 Effect of improvement in the lesions aesthetic aspect of white spot: clinical and laboratory studies Most of the studies observed that an effect of aesthetic improvement can be obtained after the white spot lesions infiltrations, reported both in laboratory studies 17,46,47 , as well as in clinical evaluations 6,45,[48][49][50] .…”

The objective of this work was to analyze scientific evidence from a literature review pertaining to the effectiveness of resinous infiltrants for minimally invasive treatment of incipient carious lesions. Studies published between 2002 and 2019 were queried from the following databases: Capes, PubMed, Medline, BBO, Lilacs and SciELO. The search keywords included "Dental Caries", "Tooth Remineralization", "Dental Leakage". Most of the studies found resin-infiltrating treatment to be a viable option for the minimally invasive treatment of incipient carious lesions; this treatment was able to fulfill the primary expected effects: inhibition of carious progression and the lesions esthetic improvement. However, some issues need to be clarified to improve the safety of this treatment because it can be recommended in clinical practice. In conclusion, the use of resinous infiltrants has been reported as promising for the treatment of incipient carious lesions. However, there is a need for long-term studies to confirm the effectiveness of this treatment to determine its applicability for clinical use. Keywords: Dental Caries. Dental Leakage. Tooth Remineralization. ResumoO objetivo desse trabalho foi analisar evidências científicas, por meio de uma revisão de literatura, sobre a eficácia do uso de infiltrantes resinosos para o tratamento minimamente invasivo de lesões cariosas incipientes. A seleção do material literário utilizado foi realizada por pesquisa sobre o tema nas bases de dados: portal de periódicos Capes, PubMed, Medline, BBO, Lilacs e SciELO, abrangendo prioritariamente, o período de 2002 a 2019. Para busca nas bases de dados foram utilizadas palavras-chave como “Cárie Dentária”, “Remineralização Dentária”, “Infiltração Dentária”, assim como suas correspondentes na língua inglesa. A maioria dos estudos encontrados aponta o tratamento infiltrante resinoso como uma opção viável para o tratamento minimamente invasivo de lesões cariosas incipientes sendo capaz de cumprir os principais efeitos esperados: inibição da progressão cariosa e melhoria estética das lesões. Entretanto, alguns impasses necessitam ser esclarecidos para que o tratamento seja recomendado com mais segurança na prática clínica. Conclui-se que o uso de infiltrantes resinosos tem sido relatado como promissor para o tratamento de lesões cariosas incipientes, contudo há necessidade de novas pesquisas e estudos a longo prazo para confirmar sua eficácia em todos aspectos desejáveis para seu uso clínico.
