Bys: Daga, Shivani, Shetty, Vabitha, Hegde, Amitha

In recent years, remineralization of lesions and caries arrest treatments have gained acceptance within the practice of minimally invasive dentistry and are promoted as part of basic oral health care. Studies have reported that arresting dentinal caries in primary teeth is possible without restorative intervention. Silver diamine fluoride (SDF) is an inexpensive topical fluoride used in many countries to manage dentinal caries across all age groups. It is highly effective in arresting active caries in primary teeth without restorative intervention and helps maintain tooth structure while minimizing child apprehension.
