what does CAMBRA stand for

A

Caries Management By Risk Assessment

18
Q

if you have caries, will you get more caries

A

yes

19
Q

what solution can be used for cavitated lesions

A

38% SDF solution

20
Q

what solution to use for noncavitated lesions

A

varnish

21
Q

do you put SDF on primary teeth

A

no only on permanengt

22
Q

what are nonrestorative treatments for carious lesions

A
  1. sealants: occlusla noncavitated
  2. fluoride varnish: noncaviated
  3. prescription fluoride toothpaste or gel: root lesions, cavitated and noncavitated
  4. SDF: all cavitated lesions
23
Q

what is the only SDf product in the US

A

Advantage Arrest frmo Elevate Oral Care

24
Q

what SDF used at creighton

advantage arest

25

28
Q

what is the disadvantage of SDF

A

light color ->darker brown/black

29
Q

how is dentin hypersenitivity treated in this lecture

A

aqueous silver creates a protective layer that blocks dentin tubules, decerasing discomfort

30
Q

indications for SDF

A

Active caries in high or extreme caries risk patients; patients with multiple caries lesions
that will likely get worse before is treatment is completed.
Traditional treatment is challenged by behavioral or medical management; limited
financial resources; limited access to dental care; and if patient requests more
conservative care.
Access for traditional approaches are compromised.
Desensitizing root surfaces.

31
Q

contraindications for SDF

A
  1. silver allergy
  2. acute pain/irreversible pulpitis or PA lesion rediographically
  3. ulcerations or stomatitis

A

SDF

33
Q

Clean + dry + isolate
Place small amount
Allow SDF to dry for one minute
