What Are SMART Fillings?
Traditionally, parents had limited options when it came to the types of fillings available to repair and restore their children’s smiles. Today, we offer SMART fillings.
Silver modified atraumatic restorative technique (SMART) fillings are used to stop decay and seal teeth. The material in SMART fillings consists of silver diamine fluoride (SDF) and glass ionomer cement. This creates a dual purpose sealant and restoration that can be painlessly applied in just one appointment.
How Do SMART Fillings Work?
SMART fillings work in two ways: the fluoride stops the development of decay and helps restore the enamel, while the cement fills the tooth and seals out any remaining bacteria. The SDF in the filling material can strengthen the tooth and halt tooth decay before it begins. This makes SMART fillings an effective treatment for cavity-prone kids and young patients who don’t have consistent access to dental care.
