Comparison of white spot color changes after treatment in acidulated phosphate fluoride application, casein phosphopeptide-amorphous calcium phosphate application, and control groups
Group | n | Median (minimum-maximum) | P* |
---|---|---|---|
Fluoride application | 14 | 3.18 (1.19-10.18) | <0.001 |
CPP-ACP† application | 14 | 4.23 (2.55-8.23) | |
Control | 14 | 0.96 (0.19-2.52) |
*Kruskal-Wallis test, †P<0.001 post hoc MannWhitney U-test: Fluoride application group versus CPP-ACP application group, P=0.05; Fluoride application group versus control group, P<0.001; CPP-ACP application group versus control group, P<0.001.
