Comparison of Caries Arrested & Prevented Among SDF, NaF Varnish &

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

Tooth decay is one of the most common chronic infectious disease found in children worldwide and if left untreated, is rapidly progress. Severe tooth decay in children is not only affect child's health and school performance, but also has impact on the family well-being. Oral rehabilitation in children requires time, resources and effort of dental specialists, the child and parents. Caries is a destructive condition of organic and inorganic components of the tooth structures but reversible and most importantly, preventable. Topical fluoride therapy, delivered by dentists has been effectively used to speed up the repair process as well as to strengthen the surface of intact tooth structure. Topical fluoride is available in various preparations. Regular application of sodium fluoride varnish is every three months, by far, considered as effective method in preventing new caries, particularly in the high-risk children. It has the advantage of containing therapeutic concentration of fluoride and ability to flow over and stick to the tooth surface. Whereas silver ion and relatively higher fluoride concentration in Silver Diamine Fluoride (SDF) has been shown to be the most effective in harden the decay, stop the caries progress and eliminate pathogenic bacteria. It can be hypothesize that when use in combination in school children, both reagents might have synergistic effect on arresting existing caries as well as preventing new caries.

Clinical Trial Description

Fluoride varnish is a good choice to consider. For caries prevention in young children, It has high efficacy in caries prevention.

Fluoride varnish has a high F concentration and prolong contact time with enamel, So it can prevent new caries and remineralize initial enamel caries. Silver diamine fluoride solution is effective in arresting dentine caries. Silver diamine fluoride has high fluoride concentration and contain silver ion. when apply dentine caries or cavitated caries can increase hardness of dentine and arresting caries.

When use in combination, it might enhance, the Efficacy in Arresting and Preventing Dental Caries in children ;

Clinical trials are conducted in a series of steps, called phases - each phase is designed to answer a separate research question.

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.
