Description:

The 635000100 ADVANTAGE ARREST Silver Diamine Fluoride 38% is a specially formulated topical treatment aimed at halting active dental caries and preventing their progression in both children and adults. This product contains a significant concentration of silver diamine fluoride (38%), merging the anti-microbial properties of silver with the remineralization advantages of fluoride into a single, non-invasive therapy. It is particularly beneficial for individuals with a high risk of cavities, those who have limited access to traditional restorative treatments, and situations where care may need to be postponed or deferred due to medical or behavioral issues. Silver ions within the formula serve as effective antimicrobial agents by curbing the growth of cavity-causing bacteria and interfering with biofilm development on dental surfaces. Simultaneously, fluoride ions aid in the remineralization of enamel and dentin, reinforcing tooth structure and enhancing resistance to future demineralization. The remarkable efficacy of this dual-action formulation makes it exceptionally useful for addressing root caries, interproximal lesions, and early childhood caries while minimizing discomfort and procedural complexities for the patient. ADVANTAGE ARREST is directly applied to the affected teeth using a micro brush, eliminating the need for drilling, anesthesia, or extensive preparation. This makes it a suitable option for patients with special needs, young children, and the elderly who may have difficulties with conventional treatment methods. It is particularly effective in community health environments, nursing homes, or outreach programs that offer mobile dental services. Clinicians appreciate its simple application, time-saving nature, and proven success in both short-term caries management and long-term preventive strategies. With appropriate patient selection and informed consent, the dark staining of treated lesions—which signifies successful treatment—can be addressed through future aesthetic restorations if required. Every unit of ADVANTAGE ARREST is packaged for controlled use, ensuring consistent dosing and lessening the likelihood of cross-contamination. Its stable shelf life and straightforward integration into preventive and minimally invasive dental practices make it an essential resource for any dental office dedicated to evidence-based, patient-focused care. In conclusion, the 635000100 ADVANTAGE ARREST Silver Diamine Fluoride 38% provides a dependable, effective, and clinically validated approach to halting dental caries. With its combined antimicrobial and remineralizing effects, it aligns with modern dentistry's objectives of prevention, early intervention, and minimally invasive treatment—ultimately enhancing patient outcomes and facilitating greater access to vital oral healthcare.
