Silver Diamine Fluoride-SDF

Silver diamine fluoride (SDF) is a liquid used in dentistry to treat tooth decay, prevent further decay, and desensitize teeth:
Treating tooth decay: SDF can be used to treat tooth decay in children, adults, and the elderly. It’s especially effective on baby teeth, especially the front teeth. SDF can also be used to treat multiple caries lesions that can’t be treated in one visit.
Preventing decay: SDF can be used to prevent decay by applying it like a fluoride varnish.
Desensitizing teeth: SDF can be used to desensitize non-carious tooth lesions and molar incisor hypomineralization.
Managing infected root canals: SDF can be used to manage infected root canals
