Treating Caries Chemically: Minimally Invasive, Maximally Effective - 1  CE Credit

Course Categories: General Dentistry / Corrective and Restorative Oral 

This presentation will present a scientific overview of minimally invasive dentistry (MID) at the tooth level utilizing new tools such as the ADA Caries Classification System, selective caries removal, and chemical approaches such as silver diamine fluoride (SDF), and glass ionomer cement (GIC). Actual clinical cases will be used to illustrate these concepts.

The presentation provides an excellent update relevant to clinical applications for the dentist, dental therapist, hygienist, assistant, and front office.

Educational Objectives:

  •  SDF and Glass Ionomers treats chemically at the tooth level

  •  Selective caries removal is minimally invasive
