Effectiveness of silver diamine fluoride in managing hypersensitivity of molar-incisor hypomineralization affected molars: a scoping review
Key Points
The aim is to assess the effectiveness of silver diamine fluoride (SDF) in reducing hypersensitivity in molar-incisor hypomineralization (MIH) affected molars.
Conducted a scoping review of existing literature on SDF and MIH.
Analyzed studies that address the effectiveness of SDF on hypersensitivity.
Identified research gaps for further investigation.
SDF shows promise in reducing hypersensitivity in MIH-affected molars.
Current literature is limited, necessitating more focused studies on SDF alone.
Abstract
SDF is a promising treatment strategy for reducing hypersensitivity in MIH-affected molars; however, further research using SDF alone is needed to evaluate its exact effectiveness.
