ABSTRACT
Abstract Objective This investigation describes the effects of 5% sodium fluoride varnish and 38% silver diamine fluoride on demineralization protection of human enamel lesions of three different severities after a secondary acid challenge. Study design Specimens underwent color and enamel surface microhardness change measurements after demineralization and treatment events. Transverse microradiography was conducted following the secondary demineralization. Results After treatments, enamel surface microhardness change showed that 24-hour lesions treated with fluoride varnish had less rehardening than 24-hour lesions treated with silver diamine fluoride (p<0.05), whereas 144-hour lesions from both treatment groups showed a beneficial decrease in surface microhardness change that was markedly better in samples treated with silver diamine fluoride (p<0.05). After the secondary demineralization, 24- and 144-hour lesions treated with silver diamine fluoride showed a sustained beneficial decrease in enamel surface microhardness change when compared to fluoride varnish-treated samples of the corresponding lesion severity (p<0.05). Transverse microradiography showed no difference between fluoride varnish- and silver diamine fluoride-treated samples of any corresponding lesion severity, indicating that remineralization in both fluoride varnish- and silver diamine fluoride-treated samples was proportional to each other after a secondary acid challenge. Conclusions Using silver diamine fluoride may have comparable benefits to fluoride varnish in mineral loss prevention.
