Official Title: Prevention of Dental Caries Lesions With Fluoride Varnish in Erupting First Permanent Molars

Brief Summary:

The aim of this study is to determine the effectiveness of fluoride varnishes in the prevention of dental caries lesions in erupting permanent first molars, in high-risk patients. Using as reference ICDAS criteria, when the success means that the surface maintain an ICDAS value 0 and failure that has change in ICDAS value 0 to 1.

Sample: The sample comprise 180 patients between 6-7 years old with high-risk of dental caries.

Study design: It proposed an experimental design randomized into 3 groups according to the frequency of topical fluoride application.(Group A: every 6 month; Group B: every 3 month; Group C: positive control).


Detailed Summary:
Sponsor: Universidad Iberoamericana

Current Primary Outcome: Number of first permanent molars with caries Lesion (taking into account ICDAS criteria) [ Time Frame: One year ]

We are going to measure changed to decay surfaces in first permanent molars = ICDAS > 0 in a year.


Original Primary Outcome: Same as current
