Detalhes bibliográficos
Resumo:The concept of minimally invasive dentistry is appealing to more and more dentists. Patients share this enthusiasm. Three basic principles underlie minimally invasive dentistry: prevention of dental caries, less intrusive treatment for early lesions, and conservation of tissue when deeper lesions are restored. Together, these principles improve patient well-being by prolonging the life of teeth and by reducing the need for uncomfortable and costly dental treatments.
