The aim of the study is to compare white spot lesions before, during and after treatment with New Biorepair Advanced Sensitive toothpaste containing micro crystals of hydroxyapatite and Colgate toothpaste with 1450 ppm of fluoride. The timeline will consider the study begin, 15 days, 30 days and 90 days after the beginning of the study. The following indices will be recorded: BEWE Index, Schiff Air Index, VAS scale. After that, patients will fill in a satisfaction questionnaire.
The aim of the study is to compare white spot lesions before, during and after treatment with two different toothpastes for home oral care. Patients who agree to sign the informed consent will be randomly assigned to two different groups:
At the baseline, professional oral hygiene will be performed. The following indices will be recorded at the study begin and at the following 15, 30 and 90 days: BEWE Index, Schiff Air Index, VAS scale. After that, patients will fill in a satisfaction questionnaire.

| Change of the BEWE Index - Basic Erosive Wear Examination (Barlet et al., 2008) | Scoring criteria: 0: no erosive tooth wear;
| Study begin, 15, 30 and 90 days. |
| Change in Schiff Air Index - Dental sensitivity test | Scoring criteria: 0: the subject did not respond to air blasting;
| Study begin, 15, 30 and 90 days. |
| Change in VAS score | Evaluation of the evoked pain with air blasting from 0 to 10.
