It¿s the localized destruction of susceptible dental hard tissue by acidic by-products from bacterial fermentation of dietary carbohydrates.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDental caries is the main reason for placement and replacement of restorations. The demineralization process occurs because of high consumption of sugary and\/or starchy foods and sugared beverages, combined with insufficient fluoride exposure, inappropriate oral hygiene, and\/or poor salivary flow.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe replacement of restorations can result in cavity preparations larger than the predecessors, which leads to weakening of the remaining tooth structure. The longevity of a restoration is attributed to the restorative material properties, the technical quality of the restorative procedure and the patient¿s compliance with appropriate maintenance of their oral hygiene.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe minimal intervention paradigm emphasizes use of adhesive restorative materials in order to minimize the size of cavity preparation. This new medical model, known as Minimally Invasive Dentistry (MID), is a conservative philosophy that reduces restorative procedure time, pain and stress, and results in decreased patient anxiety.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMID emphasizes that initial caries lesions in the enamel can be repaired by increasing the amounts of calcium, phosphate and fluoride in the saliva. Also, when a lesion needs to be restored, MID emphasizes adhesive restorative techniques, which allow removal of the decay in a way that involves minimal loss of healthy tooth structure. The term ¿minimal intervention¿ was endorsed by the Federation Dentaire Internationale in a 2002 policy statement and is globally recognized.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"aw-variant-hidden-subtitle-div\" id=\"aw-variant-subtitle-9783668653344\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Libri","offers":[{"title":"Softcover - 9783668653344","offer_id":39451994521693,"sku":"9783668653344","price":47.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0940\/0622\/files\/9ba96133-6029-4153-9568-e5517afe2e08.jpg?v=1778473493","url":"https:\/\/shop.autorenwelt.de\/en\/products\/dental-caries-advanced-minimal-invasive-procedures-von-aditi-singh","provider":"Autorenwelt Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
