FAgamin® (SDF)

We have been manufacturing FAgamin® (SDF) since 1990.

This 38% Silver Diamine Fluoride (SDF) solution acts as a powerful cariostatic agent, caries inhibitor, remineralizer, bactericide with anti-enzymatic action, protein-coagulant and desensitizer.

What does it do?
It is a clinically applied treatment that controls active dental caries and aids in preventing further progression of the
disease. The silver component acts as an anti-microbial agent killing bacteria and preventing the formation of new biofilm,
while the fluoride acts remineralizating the tooth structure and as desensitizing agent.What does it do?

How should it be applied?
Application of SDF is simple and non invasive. Initially, the teeth are brushed without paste and rinsed. The carious teeth are isolated and kept dry.
A microbrush or hyssop is dipped in a drop of SDF and placed on the lesion(s) for two minutes. Excess SDF is removed and patients are instructed not to
eat or drink for one hour.

Adverse/ side effects
Since its approval 35 years ago, not a single adverse event has been reported. On application of SDF decayed dentin will
darken as the caries lesion arrest. Most will be dark brown.
