Primary Outcome Measures:
  • Annual radiographic lesion progression [ Time Frame: 3 years ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
    Pair-wise radiographic lesion progression after 1, 2 and 3 years as determined by subtraction radiography


Secondary Outcome Measures:
  • Radiographic lesion size [ Time Frame: 3 years ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
    Radiographic lesion size as determined visually after 1, 2 and 3 years

  • Radiographic lesion size [ Time Frame: 3 years ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
    Change from Baseline in Radiographic Lesion Size as determined visually after 1, 2 and 3 years


Enrollment: 16
Study Start Date: May 2010
Estimated Study Completion Date: June 2014
Estimated Primary Completion Date: May 2014 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure)
Arms Assigned Interventions
Placebo Comparator: Preventative measures
Preventative measures of oral hygiene instruction, diet counseling and fluoride supplementation
 Behavioral: Caries management
Split-mouth design (at least two lesions per patient). Baseline treatment of the other caries lesion: dietary and behavioral modification, and OTC-fluoride supplements
Other Name: Home use of OTC oral health products
Active Comparator: Lesion infiltration
Resin infiltration of caries lesion plus preventative measures
 Device: Resin infiltration
Split-mouth design (at least two lesions per patient): treatment at baseline of one caries lesion with resin infiltration therapy
Other Name: ICON (DMG, Germany)

Detailed Description:

A 3-year longitudinal, prospective, randomized control clinical trial (RCT) is designed incorporating a split-mouth intra-oral design. Young volunteers (14-35 years old) with at least two early lesions in posterior teeth will be enrolled into this clinical trial to evaluate the clinical effectiveness of arresting lesion progression by infiltrating the lesions. The infiltration protocol included application of on-market materials and applicators, and was performed in one session.
