Effects of fluoride agents used in orthodontic treatment on demineralization

Abstract

White spot lesions seen during orthodontic treatment could lead to unsuccessful esthetic

results. For conducting a successful orthodontic treatment, orthodontists should be aware of

decalcifications and take preventive measures. The aim of this review is to evaluate the effects

of fluoride agents on prevention of white spot lesions that may occur during the treatment.
