Scientific advancements have shifted dental caries management from traditional methods to minimally invasive approaches. Future technologies aim for primary prevention, but clinical implementation faces challenges.

Area of Science:

  • Advances in cariology, dental materials, and diagnostic systems.
  • Evolving understanding of the caries process and remineralization.

Background:

  • Dental caries management has evolved from "extension for prevention" to "minimally invasive" approaches.
  • Catalyzed by developments in dental adhesives, restorative materials, and caries prevalence changes.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To summarize scientific developments impacting dental caries diagnosis and management.
  • To describe the scientific basis for modern minimally invasive caries management.

Main Methods:

  • Review of scientific advancements in cariology and dental materials.
  • Description of early diagnosis, modified caries classification, and remineralization strategies.
  • Outline of minimally invasive cavity preparation, techniques, and material selection.

Main Results:

  • Modern caries management emphasizes early diagnosis and minimally invasive techniques.
  • Modified classification systems consider lesion site and size for remineralization.
  • Strategies include reducing cariogenic bacteria and selecting appropriate materials.

Conclusions:

  • Minimally invasive dentistry is founded on scientific progress.
  • Emerging technologies promise a shift towards primary caries prevention.
  • Technical, cultural, and economic barriers hinder widespread clinical adoption.
