Using sequential applications of a novel silver diamine fluoride gel and sodium fluoride varnish to arrest severe early childhood caries lesions: A clinical trial with single group assignment
CONCLUSIONS: Two applications of 38% SDF gel and 2.5% sodium fluoride varnish arrested greater than 90% of carious surfaces at 1 year and with high levels of parental satisfaction.PRACTICAL IMPLICATIONS: Combined treatment was highly efficacious in a population with many caries lesions. This clinical trial was registered at ClinicalTrials.gov. The registration number is NCT05395065.PMID:38678451 | DOI:10.1016/j.adaj.2024.02.013 (Source: Journal of the American Dental Association)
