Burton Silver Diamine Fluoride (SDF) is an innovative dental treatment that's garnering a lot of attention in the world of pediatric dentistry. This non-invasive treatment is primarily used for managing dental caries, commonly known as tooth decay. SDF is a liquid substance that is brushed directly onto the tooth, helping to halt the progression of existing cavities and prevent new ones from forming. This FDA-approved treatment is safe, effective, and painless, making it an ideal choice for children who may be anxious about dental procedures.
Silver Diamine Fluoride has been used in Japan for over 80 years to treat tooth decay!

Silver Diamine Fluoride is a non-invasive treatment that can be an excellent choice for children who are nervous about dental procedures. There's no drilling or filling involved, which means no pain or discomfort. Instead, the SDF is gently brushed onto the tooth, making the process quick and stress-free.
SDF is highly effective at managing tooth decay. It not only halts the progression of existing cavities but also helps to prevent new ones from forming. This can help to preserve your child's natural teeth and maintain their overall oral health.
Compared to traditional cavity treatments, Silver Diamine Fluoride can be a more cost-effective option. The process is quicker, requires fewer resources, and typically necessitates fewer follow-up appointments. This can lead to significant savings over time, making SDF an attractive choice for budget-conscious families.
The first step in the SDF treatment process is a thorough examination of your child's mouth. Dr. Ying An will check for signs of tooth decay and assess whether Silver Diamine Fluoride is the appropriate treatment option.
Once the decayed areas have been identified, the next step is the application of the SDF. The liquid is carefully brushed onto the affected tooth, where it will work to stop the decay process and protect the tooth from further damage.
After the SDF has been applied, Dr. Ying An will monitor the treated teeth to ensure the SDF is working effectively and that there are no adverse reactions. Regular follow-up appointments will be scheduled to keep track of your child's progress.
While some insurance policies are starting to cover silver diamine fluoride, many still do not. It is important to check with your provider to ensure you understand your dental insurance benefits and coverage before proceeding with treatment. Oftentimes, SDF can be a more cost-effective treatment than many other restorative procedures, so even if it is not covered by your dental insurance plan, it may be a good idea to invest in your child’s teeth upfront in order to avoid more costly procedures down the line.
