38% silver diamine fluoride vs 38% SDF + potassium iodide solution (applied annually)

Arrest or reversal of noncavitated and cavitated root carious lesions · Adults (including institutionalized/older adults) with noncavitated and cavitated carious lesions on root surfaces (permanent teeth)

38% SDF solution (applied annually) may not differ from 38% SDF + potassium iodide solution (applied annually) for arrest or reversal of root carious lesions (RR 0.8, 95% CI 0.25 to 2.61; low certainty).
