Effectiveness of infiltrating resins on non-cavitated caries lesions in enamel: Bibliographic review
Abstract
This review aimed to evaluate the efficacy of resin infiltration in non-cavitated caries lesions and post orthodontic white spot lesions through searching in the PubMed database, up to the year 2020. Fifteen scientific articles were selected, of which 5 analyzed resin infiltration in non-cavitated caries and 10 in post orthodontic lesions; of the evaluation methods used, 6 used spectrophotometry, 4 radiographs, 1 DiagnoDent instrument, 3 intraoral photographs, and 1 grayscale histogram. Resin infiltration was compared with placebo, fluoride varnish, pit and fissure sealants, and it was determined that the use of ICON resin infiltration can immediately stop the progression of the caries lesion.
