About the Course

Course Description

Our geriatric population faces a significantly higher risk of dental caries compared to other age groups, with research indicating a caries risk of over 40%, often in more challenging areas or beneath aging restorations. Restorative dentistry options for older adults can vary, encompassing three main approaches: definitive, reparative, and patchwork.

This course will explore how Silver Diamine Fluoride (SDF) can be effectively incorporated into each of these approaches to better address the unique dental care needs of this population.
