The incidence of enamel demineralization after treatment with fixed orthodontic appliances

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

Introduction: Enamel demineralization manifesting itself by white spot lesions and occurring as a result of treatment with fixed orthodontic appliances is a significant clinical problem. The aim of the present study was to assess the incidence of white spot lesions in patients treated with fixed orthodontic appliances and find out whether the frequency of their occurrence depends on sex, patient?s age and treatment duration. Material and methods: The retrospective study comprised 106 randomly selected patients (35 males and 71 females) who had completed treatment with fixed orthodontic appliances. The presence of white spot lesions was assessed before placement and just after removal the fixed orthodontic appliance. Classification after Gorelick was used for the visual assessment of the severity of enamel demineralization. Results: Signs of enamel demineralization after the removal of fixed orthodontic appliances were recorded in 44 (41.5 %) patients, i.e. 23.9 % of teeth.
