Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

OBJECTIVE: To examine the effects of application of casein phosphopeptide amorphous calcium phosphate (CPP-ACP) paste and microabrasion treatment on the regression of white spot lesions (WSLs). MATERIALS AND METHODS: Artificially-induced WSLs in bovine enamel were randomly assigned to one of four treatment groups: CPP-ACP paste only, microabrasion only, microabrasion and CPP-ACP, and a control. Samples were treated with each regimen twice daily for 2 weeks and stored in remineralizing solution between the treatments. Quantitative light-induced fluorescence was used to measure changes in fluorescence, which indicate changes in mineral content of WSLs immediately before (T1) and 2 weeks after treatment (T2). A two-within-subject factor analysis of variance was used to analyze the significance of any changes in mineral content of the lesions from T1 to T2. RESULTS: There was a statistically significant (P < .05) gain in fluorescence associated with the microabrasion only, as well as the microabrasion and CPP-ACP treatments. The changes in fluorescence for the CPP-ACP treatment alone were not statistically significant (P = .40). CONCLUSIONS: CPP-ACP paste alone does not significantly improve the fluorescence value (ie, the mineral content) of WSLs. Within the limitations of this in vitro study, microabrasion treatment with or without CPP-ACP improved the fluorescence and thus reduced WSLs.

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
