New tooth coating shows promise in reversing early cavities
NCT ID NCT06166849
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested a product called DoReMin to see if it can help repair early tooth decay (white spot lesions). 43 adults with at least two early cavities on different teeth took part. One tooth was treated with DoReMin, while a similar tooth was left untreated for comparison. Researchers checked the teeth after 1 day, 4 weeks, 4 months, and 1 year using a laser device and a visual scoring system to see if the treated tooth improved.
