Non-Invasive Dental Treatment (SDF)

Silver Diamine Fluoride (SDF) is a noninvasive, curative solution, applied to the teeth to halt the decay process in primary and permanent teeth. In many cases, this eliminates drilling and filling, making it a safe and ideal treatment to arrest decay. It takes only seconds to apply using a small brush or with floss.

The liquid uses the bacteria-extinguishing properties of silver and fluoride to eliminate harmful cavity-causing bacteria, and remineralize areas softened by decay. Silver diamine fluoride not only eliminates cavities from progressing, it can reverse some damage caused by bacteria. In addition, it can help strengthen weakened areas, and eliminate tooth sensitivity.

While SDF is safe for patients of all ages, it is especially helpful for treating pediatric patients due to its non-invasive, quick and easy application. It is also a more cost-effective means of treating decay. Ask our team for more information about non-invasive dental treatments including silver diamine fluoride.
