Popis: Background and Objective: Two non-invasive treatment methods for treating white spot lesions (WSLs) include resin infiltration and fluoride therapy. Contradictions have been raised regarding the color change and surface roughness of the lesions based on these methods. Therefore, this study was conducted to investigate the color change and surface roughness of white spot lesions after treatment with resin infiltration and fluoride therapy. Methods: In this laboratory study, 40 buccal and lingual sections were prepared from 20 extracted healthy premolar teeth. 10 samples were considered as the control group, and in the other 30 samples, decayed lesions were created artificially. White spot lesions were randomly prepared in three groups without treatment, 0.05% sodium fluoride solution and resin infiltration (n=10). Then, the rate of color change and surface roughness of the samples after being placed in black tea and also after brushing were measured and compared using spectrophotometer and profilometer. Findings: The surface roughness of samples in resin infiltration, intact enamel and fluoride groups were 163.46±64.67, 259.6±43.12 and 293.92±41.36 micrometers, respectively (p
