The words ‘’cavities can stop’’ is both a question and a statement! In this episode, USA’s Dr Jeremy Horst DDS, MD, PhD helps us understand why he is such an advocate for silver fluorides and is leading the world in education and research in the material and its beneficial effects.
Dr Horst is a scientist and paediatric dentist and, with an enquiring mind, was looking for an answer to the problem of tooth decay. When silver fluorides were presented to him as an option, he embarked on research and use in clinical practice. Combining advanced scientific research and positive clinical outcomes, Dr Horst is one of the world’s most knowledgeable practitioners and clinical educators. (This information is presented in non-dental terms so that the whole community can understand the benefits available to them.)
Dr Horst and Cathy discuss some of the advantages using silver fluorides have had for their patients and discusses the modern-day approach to managing dental decay from a clinical and scientific perspective.
As Dr Horst’s outstanding (and exhaustive) research continues the gains for patients and clinicians will continue into the future.
