The current study was conducted to compare effect of diode laser and perio green dye with reminerlizing agent on surface area white spot lesions by using digital subtraction radiographic techniques.
A single-blinded, parallel-group, randomized clinical trial design was followed. 90 teeth with white spot lesions (WSLs) were selected from 30 patients. The participants were randomly assigned into six groups (n=15/group) according to the applied treatment agent (Remin Pro, X Pur Remin, and Pro-fluoride varnish) with diode laser (an average power of 1W, Exposure time of 10 s, diode 810 nm, speed of 1 mm/sec), and Elexxion Perio Green dye or without diode laser

The I sensor was a USP-driven digital sensor intended to acquire dental intraoral radiograph images. It was combined with the customized poisoning device supplied with the system. One month after the finalization of the remineralization protocol, another radiographic examination was undertaken. Before subtraction, gamma correction was applied to standardize the density and contrast, and images were obtained and saved as Tagged Image File Format (TIFF) and jpg. used image software for each area (Image J software), and follow-up images were subtracted from the base
