Opis

MINIMUM INTERVENTION DENTISTRY can be defined as a philosophy of professional care, concerned with the first occurrence, early detection and earliest possible cure of disease on micro level, followed by minimally invasive, patient friendly treatment in order to repair irreversible damages caused by such disease. The benefit for patients for MINIMAL INTERVENTION DENTISTRY (MI) lies in better oral health through disease healing and not merely on symptom relief. Furthermore, minimal invasive treatment assists in reducing wide spread patient dental anxieties. MID also has the potential for dentists to apply a more conservative approach to caries treatment and simultaneously offer patients less invasive, health oriented treatment options.
