Silver Diamine Fluoride (SDF) is highly effective in stopping cavities from progressing, especially in young children who may not tolerate more invasive treatments.
SDF is a simple, pain-free treatment applied directly to the decayed area, making it an ideal choice for children who are anxious about dental procedures.
The application process is fast, usually taking just a few minutes, making it a convenient solution for both parents and children.
The dentist will examine the decayed areas of your child’s teeth to determine if Silver Diamine Fluoride is an appropriate treatment option. This evaluation ensures the right course of action for halting the decay.
A small amount of Silver Diamine Fluoride is applied directly to the decayed tooth using a brush. This process is fast, completely painless, and works to stop the decay in its tracks.
After the treatment, follow-up visits will be scheduled to monitor the treated areas. Parents will also receive guidance on maintaining a proper oral hygiene routine to keep the treated teeth healthy and prevent future cavities.
While SDF can effectively halt the progression of cavities, the treated tooth may require additional treatment in the future. Regular dental checkups at our Houston office will help determine if further care is needed.
