Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| SDF increases the resistance to acid dissolution and increases mineral density and hardness. A rich mineralised layer can be found on the surface of arrested carious lesions.Applying KI with SDF creates a silver iodide precipitate that is yellow, insoluble and does not cause black staining on the toothTimepoint: Silver penetration at 1min, after 2min and after 20seconds | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Efficiency of SDF when applied alone and when applied with potassium iodide and light curing.Timepoint: Efficiency of SDF when applied alone and when applied with potassium iodide and light curing. | — |
