Table 5.

Median (minimum-maximum values) obtained in quantitative light-induced fluorescence (QLF) analysis at the first month compared to the baseline.

Type of varnish ΔWS area (mm2)a,b ΔΔF (%)b,c
TiF4 0.01 (–9.15 to 1.19) –1.29 (–16.30 to 4.74)
NaF 0.17 (–2.38 to 1.47) –0.55 (–5.80 to 6.10)
Placebo 0.19 (–1.14 to 4.36) –0.23 (–5.17 to 5.10)

aΔWS: variation of the white spot lesion area. For ΔWS, negative values mean progression (demineralization), and positive values, regression (remineralization). The opposite is valid for ΔΔF.

bKruskal-Wallis Test (p=.59 and p=.45, respectively).

cΔΔF: variation of the mean fluorescence loss.
