  1. Silver Diamine Fluoride Presented by Diana Pham, Dental Hygiene Student Kimberly Truong, Dental Hygiene Student Lamar Institute of Technology Dental Hygiene Program

  2. Silver Diamine Fluoride“The Silver Bullet” Importance to the Hygienist 2 components: Silver and Fluoride Application: brush on, or dab with cotton swab Cost?

  3. Development of Silver Diamine Fluoride Origin: 1960’s in Japan Central Pharmaceutical Council of the Ministry of Health and Welfare

  4. Main Purpose of SDF *To arrest and slow the rate of caries progression

  5. Mode of Action of SDF Inhibits demineralization of tooth enamel Promotes remineralization of tooth mineral, hydroxyapatite (HA) As a result, successfully fights caries

  6. Silver Diamine Fluoride Application

  7. Disadvantage Black staining Components of Silver and Fluoride Fluorosis

  8. Advantages Inexpensive Easy to apply Non-invasive Requires minimal training Slows and halts disease progression

  9. Clinical Studies Sodium Fluoride vs. Silver Diamine Fluoride Studies show SDF is more effective at arresting caries while just as effective in preventing dental decay

  10. Typical Findings

  11. Future of ‘The Silver Bullet’ FDAApproved in the U.S. More common in private practice Long-term study and experiments Access to disadvantaged populations
