Centrix Unveils SilverSense SDF Dental Desensitization

Centrix, a dental product provider, has introduced SilverSense SDF, a remarkable 38% silver diamine fluoride (SDF) solution, officially approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) as a professional-use tooth desensitizer.

Renowned for its antimicrobial and desensitizing properties, SDF has been utilized globally for decades. The release of SilverSense SDF marks a significant advancement in the preventive-restorative dental toolkit, offering relief from hypersensitivity and enabling patients to comfortably await restorative treatment.

Features and Packaging

SilverSense SDF is presented in an easy-to-use 5 mL dropper bottle, dispensing a precise 30 μL drop with each application. The product is available in two convenient package sizes: a single-bottle standard kit and a three-bottle clinic kit. 

The simplicity of application ensures a painless experience for the patient, requiring only one to two drops of the solution to treat up to five teeth. This efficiency contributes to the cost-effectiveness of SilverSense SDF.

Quoting the release, “SilverSense SDF will become a standard part of the preventive-restorative armamentarium as it alleviates hypersensitivity and allows patients to comfortably wait for restorative treatment.”

Clinical Applications and Benefits

The clinical applications of SilverSense SDF are diverse, making it an ideal choice for patients experiencing dentinal hypersensitivity. The desensitizing agent in SilverSense SDF forms insoluble precipitates with calcium or phosphate in the dentinal tubules, effectively blocking nerve impulses. 

The solution also hardens softened dentin, providing a foundation for subsequent restorative procedures. With 38% SDF, known for its antimicrobial and remineralizing properties, SilverSense SDF offers a comprehensive solution for dental professionals.

Effortless Procedure with Enhanced Visibility

The application of SilverSense SDF is not only efficient but also painless and fast, making it an ideal interim step in the restorative procedure, particularly when the final restoration is not immediately placed. The blue-tinted solution enhances visibility during application, ensuring accuracy in the treatment process.
