Riva Star Aqua

Next generation water-based silver fluoride solution used to desensitise tooth pain. Riva Star Aqua is an aqueous silver fluoride solution without the ammonia base. Contains 38% Silver Fluoride (SF) as an effective desensitiser. Similar to Riva Star (SDF), it is a non-invasive 2-step patented system. Includes a Potassium Iodide (KI) Step 2 solution for significantly reducing unsightly black stains. The ammonia-free solution tastes and smells better, leading to happier, more compliant patients. Water-based and ammonia-free formula reduces soft tissue irritation and eliminates odours while improving storage stability. Can be safely used without a gingival barrier as soft tissue irritation is significantly reduced. The silver fluoride and potassium iodide blocks the microscopic tubules that make up dentine, forming a low-solubility precipitate that gives instant relief. Clinical study supports desensitisation lasting for 2 years after one application.
