Medians with different superscript letters within the same horizontal row are statistically significantly different*; significant (P ≤ 0.05); IQR=interquartile range, SAPP = self-assembling peptide for prevention, FV = fluoride varnish, CPP-ACP = casein phosphopeptide amorphous calcium phosphate, CPP-ACPF= casein phosphopeptide amorphous calcium phosphate fluoride, FMW = fluoride mouthwash, nHA = nanohydroxyapatite
