Silver Diamine Fluoride and Beyond: Caries Management & Prevention for Adult Patients (Online)
About this event
The event at Centrix Learning is an online, on‑demand dental continuing education (CE) course titled “Silver Diamine Fluoride and Beyond: Caries Management & Prevention for Adult Patients.”
What the event covers
This webinar‑style course focuses on modern caries‑management strategies for adults, with an emphasis on silver diamine fluoride (SDF) as a minimally invasive, non‑restorative tool to arrest active lesions and prevent further decay. The presenter, Catherine Cabanzon, RDH, reviews evidence‑based guidelines, debunks common misconceptions about SDF, and shows how to integrate it into routine hygiene and restorative workflows in general practice.
Key clinical topics
- Proper case selection and protocols for using SDF in adult patients, including indications, contraindications, and consent conversations.
- Rationale for combining SDF with fluoride varnish, sealants, and other preventive measures to optimize caries control and reduce the need for restorative work.
- Management of side effects (especially staining) and how to position SDF within an esthetic‑focused practice, including when to use it versus conventional operative approaches.
