Caries preventive effects of glass ionomer cement restorations with silver diamine fluoride pretreatment on the root surface of adjacent sound tooth: an in vitro study
This research aims to investigate the effectiveness of silver diamine fluoride (SDF) pretreatment on the caries prevention capabilities of glass ionomer cement (GIC).
Conducted an in vitro study
Applied SDF pretreatment to root surfaces
Evaluated the caries prevention effect of CGIC restorations
SDF pretreatment significantly enhances the caries preventive effects of CGIC
Notable improvement observed on the root surface of adjacent sound teeth
Abstract
This in vitro study demonstrates that SDF pretreatment enhances the caries preventive effects of CGIC on the root surface of adjacent sound tooth.
