Feasibility Study on a Process for Electroless Metal Deposition in Pits and Fissures of Teeth for Use in Preventive Dentistry.

Abstract

Further studies were undertaken to test the feasibility of using metal films, deposited by electroless or chemical means, for use in the military dental program. The research effort during the past year was concentrated in the following areas: Testing alternate etching agents, evaluating the effects of pretreatment on the silver deposit, testing alternate additives and optimizing the plating conditions on dentin.
