Silver diamine fluoride (SDF) is a liquid medication used to treat tooth decay, cavities, and tooth sensitivity:
Tooth decay: SDF can prevent, slow, or stop tooth decay. It can also help harden tooth structure that has been softened by decay.
Cavities: SDF can be used to treat cavities. It’s applied to the tooth surface and can be done by a dentist or a child’s doctor.
Tooth sensitivity: SDF can treat tooth sensitivity.
