Abstract
ABSTRACT
Background: Silver diamine fluoride (SDF) has promising feedback in remineralization and arresting the carious lesion.
Aim: to assess the radiographic outcome of silver modified atraumatic restorative technique (SMART) in comparison to atraumatic restorative technique (ART).
Methods: a randomized controlled trial with split mouth technique including 42 molars, 21 for experimental (SMART) group and 21 for control (ART) group. Molars of experimental group were treated with SDF and then restored with resin modified glass ionomer cement (RMGIC) while molars of control group were restored with RMGIC after manual removal of caries. All teeth were radiographed postoperatively and after 3 months to assess dentine density below the restoration. Data were collected and statistically analyzed.
Results: There was an increase in radio density in the experimental group in comparison to the control one which was statistically significant difference, P-value < 0.001.
Conclusion: Silver diamine fluoride in SMART group induced more remineralization effect than did RMGIC in ART group.
