Caries is considered to be an infectious bacterial disease resulting in lesions of the tooth hard tissues. In the past, dentistry's approach to treating caries has been surgical-removing of diseased tissue and replacing it with a dental restorative material. Emerging technologies like minimally intervention dentistry will facilitate evolution to primary prevention of caries, though obstacles to full implementation in clinical practice still exist. Minimal intervention dentistry (MID), a modern, evidence-based approach to caries management in dentate patients. The minimally invasive approach to treating dental caries incorporates the dental science of detecting, diagnosing, intercepting and treating dental caries at microscopic level, providing a cutting edge to the treatment of caries.so the current paradigm is 'prevention of extension', 'constriction with conviction' and 'small is beautiful,' which is aimed at maximum tooth conservation. 132 pp. Englisch.

About this title

Synopsis

The term minimal intervention in relation to dental caries covers a vast area of diagnosis and risk assessment, prevention and control. A minimal intervention approach starts with diagnosis and risk assessment of the disease in order to allow for proper treatment decision. Different scenarios for management of initial carious lesions include non invasive management of operative care. The goal of a restorative dentist should be to delay, to prevent placement of initial restorations. Modern treatment plans are focused on disease control, tailored to match the disease status of each individual patient. Hence the dental profession is faced with essential and massive task of educating patients about the disease process and the value of modern caries prevention and re-mineralization measures as treatment alternatives. Minimal intervention dentistry strives to diagnose and treat the cause, not the symptoms.
