Summary

Purpose: To assess the clinical effectiveness of silver diamine fluoride (SDF) to control asymptomatic cavitated carious lesions compared to conventional glass ionomer restoration in preschool children.

Conditions

  • Dental Caries in Children

Interventions

DRUG

Silver Diamine Fluoride (SDF)

Proper isolation of the operating field and removal of gross debris. Minimize contact with the gingiva and mucus membrane. Gentle dryness with compressed air. Dip and dab micro brush on the side of the dapper dish. Apply SDF to the affected surface (one drop/ appointment). Gentle dryness with compressed air for one minute. Remove excess SDF with gauze or cotton pellets. Continue to isolate the site for up to three minutes.

OTHER

Glass Ionomer Restoration (GI)

Application of GI restoration necessitates removal of carious tissue using round bur rotating on low-speed contra and excavation of infected carious dentin. Followed by restoring the prepared cavity with glass ionomer restoration according to the manufacturer's instructions. The restoration will be checked for any high spots and occlusal interference (if any) will be corrected.

OTHER

Sodium fluoride varnish with nano-sliver particles (NaF-AgNP)

Proper isolation of the operating field and removal of gross debris. Minimize contact with the gingiva and mucus membrane. Gentle dryness with compressed air. Dip and dab micro brush on the side of the dapper dish. Apply NaF-AGNP to the affected surface (one drop/ appointment). Gentle dryness with compressed air for one minute. Continue to isolate the site for up to three minutes.
