Already widely used in New Zealand, China, and Japan for more than 50 years, SDF was approved by the FDA in 2014, first as an option for treating tooth sensitivity in adults then as an effective treatment for cavities in pediatric patients and patients with severe dental anxiety or special needs.<\/p><p>When applied to a tooth with a cavity, the silver in SDF kills the bacteria causing the decay and remineralizes the enamel of the treated tooth, slowing or even stopping the progression of decay and strengthening the tooth. SDF is painless, non-invasive, and ideal for patients who can\u2019t or are unable to tolerate traditional restorative procedures like fillings.<\/p><p>Norman Smile Center, led by Drs. <a href=\"https:\/\/normansmilecenter.com\/kristen-campbell-dds\/\">Kristen Campbell<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/normansmilecenter.com\/donna-sparks-dds\/\">Donna Sparks<\/a>, is proud to offer silver diamine fluoride (SDF) as part of our preventative services for pediatric patients.
