Perceptions of dental professionals on the use of silver diamine fluoride with or without light-curing
The participants' responses indicated that the use of SDF with and without light-curing each has its merits. Using SDF with light-curing emerged as the preferred method due to perceived benefits. e.g., quicker treatment, better moisture control. However, concerns regarding existing guidelines and the lack of robust evidence for its efficacy were also identified. This study highlights the need for additional research to address the knowledge gaps and provide stronger evidence to support the use of light-curing after SDF application.
