Summary

The study was conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of the biannual application of 38% silver diamine fluoride in arresting early childhood caries when compared to atraumatic restorative treatment.

Conditions

  • Early Childhood Caries

Interventions

DRUG

SDF

SDF promotes enamel and dentin remineralization, as well as inhibit the growth of cariogenic bacteria. the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved SDF as a device for reducing tooth sensitivity in the USA.

PROCEDURE

ART

The ART technique involves caries excavation by hand instruments only with care to avoid pulp exposure. Such excavation is mainly from the periphery of the lesion to achieve a good seal of the restoration and minimize leakage. The tooth is then restored by glass ionomer cement.
