Protocol summary

Summary
Orthodontic treatment can lead to adverse effects on enamel surfaces, which are manifested as enamel loss caused by etching, enamel surface alterations and micro cracks and scratches, induced during debonding and clean up procedures. In addition to these obvious factors, the abrasion of the enamel surface caused by post orthodontic debonding and clean up procedures could result in more color absorption. In this study, twenty orthodontic patients with non extraction orthodontic treatment and acceptable hygiene will be evaluated for enamel staining after orthodontic debonding. There are two variables for this randomized clinical trial: ten days application of Nano Hydroxyapatite on enamel surface during the first ten days after debonding, and different polishing techniques at resin removal stage in debonding procedures. The usage of carbide bur alone, as the conventional method, and the combination use of carbide burs and Soflex disks will be compared to each other. The enamel staining will be evaluated by reflectance spectrophotometer in 3 periods: immediately after debonding, two, and finally, four months after debonding. The aim of this study is to assess the effect of Nano Hydroxyapatite serum and different finishing, polishing techniques on color alterations of enamel that has been influenced by debonding procedures after comprehensive orthodontic treatment, by employing a spectrophotometer.

Intervention groups

1

Description
At the end of the fixed orthodontic treatment, brackets will be detached using a hand plier by gently squeezing the mesial and distal wings together. Removal of remnant resin will be done on all teeth by means of using carbide burs operated with low speed and water cooling used for 20 seconds. Then, randomly on one side of the mouth (Intervention group), carbide burs, followed by aluminum oxide discs (SofLex), will be used on the upper and lower premolars for finishing procedure. Randomization will be done by coin tossing. Then a rubber cup will be used in order to polish all teeth. All procedures will be performed by a single clinician and a new bur and rubber cup and disc will be used for each patient. To ensure complete resin removal, teeth will be evaluated under dental operating light with dental explorer. For all patients, the Nano Hydroxyapatite (Nano HAP) serum will be applied on the upper left and right first and second premolars (Intervention group), and the color alterations will be compared with lower left and right first and second premolars. Instruction for application of Nano HAP serum is as follows: a high concentration Nano HAP serum will be applied by the clinician on the teeth surface daily for 10 days, with a sponge on the head of the Nano HAP tubes for 2 to 3 minutes, and rinsed after 20 minutes with water. During the application of the solution, the teeth will be isolated with cotton rolls, according to the manufacturer’s instructions. A timetable will be given to the patients to control oral hygiene at home.

Description
At the end of the fixed orthodontic treatment, brackets will be detached using a hand plier by gently squeezing the mesial and distal wings together. On the other side of the mouth, (Control group) after removal of the remnant resin by means of carbide burs, SofLex discs will not be used, just a rubber cup will be used in order to polish teeth. All procedures will be performed by single clinician and a new bur and rubber cup will be used for each patient. To ensure complete resin removal, teeth will be evaluated under dental operating light with dental explorer. The Nano HAP serum will not be applied on the lower left and right first and second premolars (control group), and the color alterations will be compared with the upper left and right first and second premolars. In order to optimize the results, the incisal third of the buccal surface of central incisors which is not affected by bonding and debonding procedures, is considered as the negative control group and will be evaluated by spectrophotometry analysis like other groups.
