Abstract :Objective: Study aimed to evaluate the efficiency of resin infiltration technique on the eroded enamel surface of both primary and permanent teeth with DIAGNOdent pen and CIE L*a*b values. Materials and Methods: Buccal surfaces of 28 permanent and 28 primary teeth were covered with nail polish leaving an area of 2*2mm width*height and kept in orange juice for 4 days as a part of the erosion cycle. Then, resin infiltration agent insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(ICON, DMG, Hamburg, Germany); was applied to all teeth. Within the scope of this study pre-erosion, post-erosion and post-treatment measurements were made before erosion, after erosion and after resin infiltration application with a fluorescent-based device and CIE L*a*b values. CIE L*a*b values were analyzed with paired T-test and ΔLab values were compared by Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test. Statistical significance level was p<0.05. Results: The results of fluorescence-based device were statistically significant for both primary and permanent teeth for pre-erosion, post-erosion and post-treatment insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(p<0.05);. Also, ΔLab values were statistically significant for both primary insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(p=0.04, p<0.05); and permanent teeth insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(p=0.01, p<0.05);. Conclusion: The results of the present study showed the masking ability of resin infiltration technique with DIAGNOdent pen and CIE L*a*b values. So, resin infiltration might be a solution for masking erosion lesions on permanent and primary teeth to provide aesthetic expectations.
