Clinical Trial Summary

The study was conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of the biannual application of 38% silver diamine fluoride in arresting early childhood caries when compared to atraumatic restorative treatment.


Clinical Trial Description

Owing to the virulent nature of early childhood caries (ECC) and its consequences if left untreated, immediate intervention is indicated to control the condition.

Barriers to intervention as young age, uncooperative patient behavior and lack of access to dental care are however, very common. The use of silver diamine fluoride as an anticaries agent is of growing popularity worldwide due to its promising results, safety of use, ease of application and relatively low cost. Further research is still required in order to provide evidence-based recommendations regarding the use of SDF in arresting early childhood caries. Purpose: To evaluate the effectiveness of biannual application of 38% silver diamine fluoride in arresting early childhood caries when compared to atraumatic restorative treatment. ;
