I'm pretty sure that most of you listening to this podcast have heard of Silver Diamine Fluoride. But did you know that combining SDF with the application of glass ionomer can be a long term solution to restoring a badly decayed tooth.

This episode will open your eyes to treating decay medically with the use of SDF and GI.
