Summary

The aim of the present work is to study the effect of the application of Silver diamine fluoride (SDF) and a novel green synthesized Nano-silver fluoride (NSF) on early enamel lesions in primary teeth. Proving their positive effect would be the basis for the development of innovative dental materials and hygienic agents to combat the carious process, which is a critical prerequisite for improving the quality of dental services and reducing dental anxiety and fear.

Conditions

  • White Spot Lesion of Tooth

Interventions

DRUG

NSF

Prior to treatment the working field is isolated with cotton rolls. Gingival barrier is used for soft tissue protection. Application of NSF using a microapplicator on the carious lesion for 1 minute. Excess material and gingival barrier are removed. Participants receive oral hygiene instructions.

DRUG

SDF+KI

Prior to treatment the working field is isolated with cotton rolls. Gingival barrier is used for soft tissue protection. Application of 38% silver diamine fluoride (Riva star 38%, SDI) using a microapplicator on the carious lesion. Immediately afterwards, potassium iodide is applied as a reducing agent. Excess material and gingival barrier are removed. Participants receive oral hygiene instructions.

OTHER

Control group

Subjects will receive oral hygiene instructioins to apply fluoridated toothpaste to a toothbrush and brush teeth thoroughly for at least 2 minutes, then expectorate and rinse.
