Protocol summary

Study aim
The objective of the present study is to discover the preventive effect of Nano hydroxyapatite tooth paste in this tooth discoloration.
Design
This will be a triple-blind randomized controlled trial with a 1:1 allocation ratio and 2 parallel groups, examining the superiority of Nano hydroxyapatite containing toothpaste for preventing tooth discoloration during fixed orthodontic treatment compared with fluoride containing toothpaste.
Settings and conduct
The trial will be triple-blinded. Both the participants and clinician will be masked to group allocation and they will not be aware of the type of toothpaste. The laboratory technician taking the photographs will be masked to intervention. Furthermore, the individual analyzing the data will be unaware of the study protocol.
Participants/Inclusion and exclusion criteria
The inclusion criteria will be (1) need for comprehensive orthodontic treatment by fixed appliances at least in the upper arch; (2) permanent dentition; (3) no plaque accumulation or gingival inflammation before bracket bonding; (4) good general health. The exclusion criteria will be patients with a smoking habit, tooth anomalies and active dental caries.
Intervention groups
Before treatment, patients in the experimental and control groups will be trained and informed to maintain oral hygiene with fixed appliances and to brush at least 3 times a day with Nano hydroxyapatite and white fluoride toothpaste respectively. All the patient will use toothbrush with soft bristles. Patients will not be permitted to routinely use staining mouth rinses or beverages during orthodontic treatment. The patient will be reviewed every 4 to 6 weeks.
Main outcome variables
The goal is to evaluate the preventive effect of Nano hydroxyapatite containing tooth paste on tooth discoloration during the first six months of fixed orthodontic treatment

Intervention groups

1

Description
Intervention group: The teeth will be etched at the bracket base area with 37% phosphoric acid for 15 seconds, rinsed, and dried. Transbond XT Adhesive Primer and Transbond XT Adhesive Resin will be used for bonding metal brackets. Bonding procedures will be performed according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Stainless steel brackets will be placed and firmly pressed onto the enamel surfaces and excess adhesive will be removed from the bracket base periphery. If a slight bit of excess adhesive is present after setting (especially along the gingival margin), it will be removed with burs.patients in the experimental group will be brush at least 3 times a day with Nano hydroxyapatite toothpaste.
