Resin infiltration and fluoride varnish for caries control in children: A systematic review

Dental caries progression in children remains a major public health concern despite widespread fluoride use. Therefore, it is of interest to compare the effectiveness of resin infiltration combined with fluoride varnish versus fluoride varnish alone in reducing caries progression among school children. The combination therapy showed greater efficacy in arresting and reducing carious lesion progression than fluoride varnish alone. Thus, resin infiltration with fluoride varnish offers superior protection against dental caries in children.
