Silver Diamine Fluoride Effects on Baby Teeth Over Time
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This study looks at how a special silver-based liquid (silver diamine fluoride) affects the inner health of baby teeth over the long term. Researchers will monitor teeth that were previously treated with this liquid to understand if it helps protect teeth and keep them healthy.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your child must have baby teeth that were treated with silver diamine fluoride (a liquid coating) in the past, either alone or combined with a tooth-colored filling material
- The treated teeth must not show signs of infection or decay when examined by a dentist
- No radiographic (X-ray) evidence of infection in the treated teeth
- Willingness to attend follow-up dental appointments for evaluation

This study tests a gel (SDF 38%) that is painted on cavities to stop them from getting worse. It may help elderly people who live in long-term care and have trouble brushing their teeth.
This trial tests two types of silver liquid (one standard, one with very tiny particles) to see which works better at stopping cavities in baby teeth of young children who are nervous about dental treatment. If your child has cavities in their back baby teeth and is too scared for usual dental work, this may be an option.
This study tests if a liquid medicine (silver diamine fluoride) painted on baby teeth cavities can change the bacteria in a child's mouth. It is for healthy children ages 4–10 with an open cavity.
This study compares a silver-containing liquid (SDF) to a fluoride varnish to see which works better at reducing cavity-causing bacteria in children's mouths. It may help your child if they have cavities in their baby teeth.
This trial studies a special liquid called silver diamine fluoride that is painted onto cavities on tooth roots. It may help stop the decay and keep the tooth healthy without drilling.
This study tests whether applying a silver fluoride solution once or twice can stop tooth decay in children aged 4 to 6. It may help keep cavities from getting worse without needing fillings.
