    Non-Invasive Cavity Prevention

    SDF & Hydroxyapatite Treatments

    At Discovery Dental, we offer modern, non-invasive options to help prevent cavities and protect tooth enamel. Silver Diamine Fluoride (SDF) and hydroxyapatite are conservative dental treatments designed to support cavity prevention without drilling or injections in appropriate cases. These options are often used as part of general dentistry and preventive care, especially for children, seniors, patients with dental anxiety, or those at higher risk for tooth decay.
