Laser managed in the treatment of hypomineralized occlusal defects in teeth enamel affected by molar-incisor hypomineralization: A randomized controlled clinical study / Uso do laser no tratamento dos defeitos oclusais hipomineralizados em esmalte de dentes afetados pela hipomineralização molar-incisivo: estudo clínico controlado randomizado
Abstract:Background: Nowadays, observed a growing rate of teeth affected by molar incisor hypomineralization (MIH). These teeth can present persistent inflammation of the pulp, increasing the dentin hypersensitivity and consequently, directly affecting the cleaning of the affected tooth and contributing to the progression of caries lesions. Aims: This study aims to compare the use of diode laser (DL) irradiation (970nm) with the application of a glass ionomer-based sealant (GIC) for the most clinically and cost-effecti… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
