Episode Summary

In this episode we'll explore the clinical applications of SDF, including single and multi-visit protocols, and how to determine the most effective treatment approach based on the patient's age, cooperation level, and caries risk. We’ll talk about what kind of materials we should be using to restore teeth following SDF treatment and how to manage the characteristic black staining that comes with its use.
