Silver Diamine Fluoride (SDF) Treatment in Burnaby: A Non-Invasive Solution for Cavity Prevention

At Aviator Dental Hygiene in Burnaby, we are committed to providing advanced, non-invasive dental treatments to protect your oral health. Silver Diamine Fluoride (SDF) is a powerful solution that helps prevent and stop dental caries while also relieving dentinal hypersensitivity. This topical treatment is composed of silver, ammonium, and fluoride ions, offering strong antimicrobial properties and promoting the remineralization of enamel and dentin.

Unlike traditional cavity treatments, SDF does not require drilling or local anesthetic, making it a gentle and effective option for both children and adults. If you're looking for a painless way to protect your teeth, visit our Burnaby dental clinic to learn more about how SDF can benefit you.
