Silver dental liquid to stop early back tooth decay
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This trial tests whether a special paint-on liquid helps stop early cavities in permanent back teeth, and whether adding a light makes it work better. If you are a dental student with a small cavity, this treatment could stop it from getting worse without a filling.
