At Sprout Dentistry for Kids in Frisco, we believe in gentle, proactive care. That’s why we offer Silver Diamine Fluoride (SDF) — a simple, non-invasive way to stop cavities without drills or shots. It’s perfect for early decay, younger children, and kids who need a stress-free dental solution.
What Is Silver Diamine Fluoride?
What Is Silver Diamine Fluoride?
Silver Diamine Fluoride is a liquid medication that helps stop tooth decay from progressing. Approved by the FDA, SDF works by killing bacteria and strengthening the enamel on affected teeth. It’s applied directly to the decayed area and requires no numbing, drilling, or anesthesia. At our Frisco office, we often use SDF for children who are too young or anxious for traditional restorative procedures — or when a temporary, low-stress option is needed to manage cavities.

FAQs

Will SDF stain my child’s teeth?
Yes — SDF will darken the decayed part of the tooth to a brown or black color. This is a sign that the decay has been stopped. Healthy enamel is not affected.
Can SDF replace fillings completely?
In some cases, yes. For others, it may be used to delay a filling until your child is older or more comfortable with treatment.
Is it safe for repeated use?
Yes. SDF can be reapplied safely as needed. Many children benefit from multiple applications over time, depending on the location and severity of the decay.
