Protective effect of titanium tetrafluoride and silver diamine fluoride on radiation-induced dentin caries in vitro.

This in vitro study evaluated the protective effect of titanium tetrafluoride (TiF) varnish and silver diamine fluoride (SDF) solution on the radiation-induced dentin caries. Bovine root dentin samples were irradiated (70 Gy) and treated as follows: (6 h): 4% TiF varnish; 5.42% NaF varnish; 30% SDF solution; placebo varnish; or untreated (negative control).
