Minimally Invasive Caries Removal Methods in Dentistry

Abstract

The aim of a successful restorative treatment is to remove the dental caries and to regain the function by restoring the cavity with appropriate dental materials. While removing the caries, it is aimed to clean the demineralized soft infected tissue and protect the tissue that can be remineralized and the pulp-dentin complex. The current minimally invasive approach to cavity preparation and innovations in the production of adhesive materials have provided the development of new methods for caries removal. Especially in pediatric dentistry, painless interventions without the need for local anesthesia create comfort and confidence during treatment. The purpose of this review is to evaluate the literature on alternative caries removal methods.

Diş Hekimliğinde Minimal Girişimsel Çürük Temizleme Yöntemleri

Abstract

Başarılı bir restoratif tedavi; diş çürüğünü uzaklaştırılarak kavitenin uygun materyallerle sızdırmaz bir şekilde restore edilerek fonksiyonunun yeniden sağlanmasıdır. Diş çürüğünün uzaklaştırılmasında; demineralize yumuşak enfekte dokunun temizlenerek remineralize olabilecek dokunun ve pulpa-dentin kompleksinin korunması amaçlanır. Güncel minimal girişimsel kavite hazırlama yaklaşımı ve adesiv materyallerin üretimindeki yenilikler çürüğün kaldırılmasında yeni yöntemlerin gelişmesini sağlamıştır. Özellikle çocuk diş hekimliğinde lokal anesteziye ihtiyaç duyulmadan yapılan ağrısız müdahaleler tedavi sırasında konfor ve güven oluşturmaktadır. Bu derlemenin amacı alternatif çürük kaldırma yöntemleri ile ilgili literatür değerlendirmesi yapmaktır.
