Effect of Casein Phosphopeptide Amorphous Calcium Phosphate Fluoride Varnish on Remineralization of White Spot Lesion in Primary Teeth

Summary

The aim of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of Casein phosphopeptide-amorphous calcium phosphate fluoride varnish (CPP-ACP FV) in comparison to fluoride varnish (FV) as a remineralizing agent for white spot lesions in primary teeth (WSLs).
