Abstract
|
|
|
|
Advances in instrumentation, materials & technique have enabled the clinicians, a transition from G.V. Black's "Extension for prevention" to "Prevention of extension" approach in caries management. The concept of "minimally invasive dentistry"can be defined as maximal preservation of healthy dental structure. It focuses on prevention, remineralization & minimal dentist intervention. Dentists are currently spending most of their time replacing old restorations. This paper focuses on describing minimally invasive dentistry from a conceptual perspective, relating to goals, objectives, principles, clinical caries diagnosis, restorative intervention threshold and operative procedures.
