As special needs patients have certain limitations, routine dental treatment cannot be performed. Radical treatment modalities such as sedation or general anaesthesia are often required. However, these treatment modalities have their own risks. During recent times, there has been a revival in interest in using silver diamine fluoride to arrest dental caries. This review makes a case for using the silver fluoride bulletin special needs individuals to simplify the treatment procedure and make radical treatment modalities unnecessary.&#13;
