Popis: | Aim: The current study was conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of ginger and rosemary herbals versus sodium fluoride in remineralization of incipient enamel caries. Methodology: white spot lesions in anterior teeth of post orthodontic debanding patients received randomly two types of remineralizing agents, either ginger and rosemary gel or sodium fluoride varnish (bifluorid 10). White spot lesions were evaluated at base line one month and after 3, 6 months follow up periods by two blinded assessors to assess white spot lesion progression by Kavo DIAGNOdent. Results: Mann-Whitney test showed that there at baseline, sodium fluoride varnish group yielded similar readings as ginger and rosemary gel group (P=0.060). While at 1 month, ginger and rosemary gel group showed significantly higher readings compared to sodium fluoride varnish group (P |
