Silver Diamine Fluoride (SDF)


Silver Diamine Fluoride, or SDF, is a revolutionary new treatment for tooth decay that is both quick and pain free, allowing children with cavities to avoid the use of needles or a drill. SDF is a topical liquid that is applied to the cavity to kill the germs and to provide fluoride to re-mineralize and harden the area softened by the decay.
