          Abstract

          RESUMEN La formación de los estudiantes en odontología debe ser un proceso de constante actualización en las diversas técnicas que se aplican en esta ciencia, en técnicas como el uso del barniz de flúor. El objetivo de la investigación fue establecer algunas acciones a realizar con los estudiantes dentro del proceso docente educativo, con respecto al estudio, aplicación y los beneficios de la aplicación de flúor barniz en pacientes pediátricos a través de una revisión bibliográfica. Se utilizó una metodología cualitativa, aplicada, de tipo descriptiva que incluyó artículos originales, revisiones, publicaciones e informes encontrados en importantes bases de datos. Como resultados de la búsqueda bibliográfica, se encontraron 53 artículos con calidad científica, publicados en el periodo 2017-2021, de la que se concluye que, el barniz de flúor es una de las formas más efectivas para prevenir la caries y desmineralización dental en edad pediátrica pero que no deja de tener sus efectos adversos en algunos casos, por lo que su estudio por los estudiantes de odontología resulta esencial desde la conducción de actividades por parte de los docentes y especialistas de la salud.

          ABSTRACT The training of students in dentistry must be a process of constant updating in the various techniques that are applied in this science. The use of fluoride varnish is currently considered one of the most effective preventive dental measures in recent times due to its excellent adherence and retention of fluoride on the dental surface that prevents the appearance, development, and chronicity of dental diseases. The objective of the research was to establish some actions to be carried out with the students within the educational teaching process, regarding the study, application, and benefits of the application of fluoride varnish in pediatric patients through a bibliographic review. A qualitative, applied, descriptive methodology was used that included original articles, reviews, publications, and reports found in important databases. As results of the bibliographic search, 53 articles with scientific quality were found, published in the period 2017-2021. The bibliographic review concludes that fluoride varnish is one of the most effective ways to prevent caries and dental demineralization in children, but that it is not without adverse effects in some cases, so its study by dental students It is essential from the conduct of activities by teachers and health specialists.

            Comparative cariostatic efficacy of a novel Nano-silver fluoride varnish with 38% silver diamine fluoride varnish a double-blind randomized clinical trial

            Background To evaluate the clinical cariostatic efficacy of a concocted 5% Nano-silver incorporated Sodium fluoride (NSSF) dental varnish with 38% Silver diamine fluoride (SDF) in preventing the progression of dentinal caries of primary molars. Material and Methods A total of 159 active dentinal carious lesions in primary molars (from 50 children) were selected and randomly divided into two groups; NSSF and SDF. Varnish application was performed at the baseline visit and follow-up is carried out at 1, 3, 6 and 12 months. Parameters such as caries activity, depth, size, colour, and presence or absence of pain were noted at baseline and follow-up visits. Results The intergroup comparison of caries activity status did not reveal significant difference between the number of active and arrested caries lesions in NSSF and SDF groups at any visit (p >0.05) during the 12-month follow-up. There was no difference between overall failure and success rates between the two groups at any follow-up period (p-0.48). Conclusions Annual application of 5% NSSF is better than or equal to 38% SDF in preventing the progression of dentinal caries of primary molars. NSSF does not cause dark staining of dentinal tissue compared to the SDF and the use of NSSF can be recommended in children.

              Pit and fissure sealants versus fluoride varnishes for preventing dental decay in the permanent teeth of children and adolescents

              Most of the detected increment in dental caries among children above the age of six years and adolescents is confined to occlusal surfaces of posterior permanent molars. Dental sealants and fluoride varnishes are much used to prevent caries. As the effectiveness of both interventions in controlling caries as compared with no intervention has been demonstrated previously, this review aimed to evaluate their relative effectiveness. It updates a review published originally in 2006 and updated in 2010 and in 2016.
