NCT ID NCT07229105
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested three different products (CPP-ACP, nano-hydroxyapatite, and fluoride varnish) against regular fluoride toothpaste to see which best prevents white spots on teeth near clear aligner attachments. Forty people completed the 6-month study. Researchers used a special laser device to measure early tooth decay around the attachments at the start and after 1, 3, and 6 months.
