“…ΔQ value was significantly less for fluoride varnish and fluoride film compared to control, and also less for fluoride varnish compared to fluoride film (He et al, 2016). Indeed, ΔZ in 3 months after the last application of fluoride varnish and CHX gel was less than for control (P>0.05), ΔZ for fluoride varnish was less than that of CHX gel (P>0.05).…”

“…In addition to their remineralizing action resulting from ion release, it is likely that these products act as a physical barrier that protects the enamel against acid attack [11]. Although the use of varnishes to prevent white spots during orthodontic treatment has been widely investigated [12,13,14,15], their effects following interproximal reduction procedures–as far as we are aware–have been studied just by Peng et al [16]. They measured microhardness, density and mineral loss after using a fluoride varnish and resin infiltration on stripped enamel surfaces [16].…”

ObjectivesTo evaluate quantitatively and qualitatively the changes produced to enamel after interproximal reduction and subjected to demineralization cycles, after applying a fluoride varnish (Profluorid) and a fluoride varnish containing tricalcium phosphate modified by fumaric acid (Clinpro White).Materials and methods138 interproximal dental surfaces were divided into six groups: 1) Intact enamel; 2) Intact enamel + demineralization cycles (DC); 3) Interproximal Reduction (IR); 4) IR + DC; 5) IR + Profluorid + DC; 6) IR + Clinpro White + DC. IR was performed with a 0.5 mm cylindrical diamond bur. The weight percentage of calcium (Ca), phosphorous (P) and fluoride (F) were quantified by energy-dispersive X-ray spectrometry (EDX). Samples were examined under scanning electron microscopy (SEM).ResultsThe weight percentage of Ca was significantly higher (p<0.05) in Groups 1, 2 and 5 than Groups 4 and 6. No significant differences were detected in the weight percentage of Ca between Group 3 and the other groups (p>0.05). The weight percentage of P was similar among all six groups (p>0.05). F was detected on 65% of Group 6 surfaces. SEM images of Groups 4 and 6 showed signs of demineralization, while Group 5 did not.ConclusionsProfluorid application acts as a barrier against the demineralization of interproximally reduced enamel.

“…A total of 10 clinical trials were selected for this systematic review that were conducted in the United States [22,23] Brazil [24][25][26] Sweden [27], Iran [28], Germany [29], China [30] and Italy [31]. Three of the studies used fluoride varnish as a preventive therapy in the appearance of white spot lesions around the bracket [24,25,31] with a split mouth design, and 7 studies used varnish to treat white spot lesions around the bracket with a parallel design [22,23,[26][27][28][29][30].…”

Introduction: White spot lesions are the first clinical sign of dental caries, and they occur frequently in patients with orthodontic appliances. Currently, there are no systematic reviews that have evaluated fluoride varnish compared with other methods to prevent or arrest the development of dental caries. The aim of this systematic review (SR) was to evaluate the effectiveness of the use of fluoride varnish compared with other methods to prevent or arrest initial lesions of caries in patients with corrective orthodontics. Methods: A search was conducted for articles in the MEDLINE, EMBASE and Google Scholar databases. This SR included randomized clinical trials and prospective interventional studies that used fluoride varnish for the prevention and/or arrest of white spot lesions in orthodontic treatment or during the 3-month period after removal of orthodontic fixed appliances. To assess the risk of bias in the studies, we used the Cochrane collaboration tool. Results: The search strategy showed 115 possible eligible articles, and we included 10 articles in this SR. The reviewed studies showed high and moderate methodological quality. Four studies out of 10 agreed that fluoride varnish is as effective as the advised and guided oral hygiene technique. Overall, most of the included studies did not show significant advantages to fluoride varnish application in terms of preventing the development of white spots around orthodontic brackets when the patients were submitted to regular professional oral hygiene control. Conclusions: Fluoride varnish is an effective material to prevent and arrest white spot lesions in patients with orthodontic treatment.
