First seen Feb 18, 2026 · Last updated May 16, 2026 · Updated 15 times

Summary

This study surveys general dentists in two UK regions to understand why silver diamine fluoride (SDF) — a quick, needle-free liquid that stops tooth decay — is not widely used for children. Researchers aim to identify barriers like lack of training or cost, so more kids can benefit from this simple treatment. About 34 dentists will complete an anonymous online questionnaire.
