Principles of Minimally Invasive Dentistry

• It performs the least amount of dentistry needed in any situation.

• Never removes any more tooth structure than is absolutely required to restore teeth to their normal condition.
• Always uses dental materials that conserve the maximum of tooth structure.
• Uses only dental materials that have been researched by leading dental schools and research institutions and that are recommended by leading practising dentists.
• Uses only the strongest and longest-lasting dental materials to reduce the need for future repairs and replacement.
• Uses dental procedures that keep the number of necessary appointments to a minimum.
• Uses only dental laboratories that use minimal invasive materials for the restoration of teeth.
