Study Objectives

1 Primary · 5 Secondary · Reporting Duration: one year

12 months
Clinically significant changes indicating caries regression are changes in ICDAS severity values from 2 or higher to 0 or 1.
6 months
Clinically significant changes indicating caries progression are changes in ICDAS severity values from 0 to 2 or higher, from 1 or 2 to 3 or higher, or from 3 or 4 to 5 or 6.
after 6 months
Incremental subject-wise Decayed Missing Filled Surfaces (DFMS) score after 6-months of product use;
between 6-months and one year
Clinically significant change in International Caries Detection and Assessment System (ICDAS) severity scores between the baseline and the six-month and one-year examinations and between the six-month and one-year examinations.
Incremental subject-wise Decayed Missing Filled Surfaces (DFMS) score between 6- months and one year of product use.
one year
The primary efficacy endpoint will be the incremental subject-wise Decayed Missing Filled Surfaces (DMFS) score after one year of product use
