Thank you to Dr. Adilson Luiz Ramos for his
kind words included in his interview in Dental Press Journal of Orthodontics.
Q: I would like you to comment on
the in vivo clinical effectiveness of such products which you have been
studying along with Dr. S. Jay Bowman, one of the greatest names in world
Orthodontics. What should we expect from a near future? What are the most
recent evidences concerning remineralization of white spots on the enamel after
orthodontic treatment?
A: I am glad you have mentioned Dr.
Jay Bowman's name. I thank him because we started on this line of research
after he went to the 1st Dental Press International Congress, held in the city
of Maringá, in 2001, during which he instigated us to research about the
effects of fluoride varnish. From that point onwards, we developed many in
vitro, in situ and in vivo researches with fluoride materials, aiming at
lessening the negative effects of demineralization caused during the use of
fixed appliances.
