Answer to Question 1

Minimally invasive dentistry emphasizes prevention and the least possible intervention. Teeth are constantly affected by acids, which demineralize the surfaces (dissolves the enamel). Early lesions beneath the enamel can be treated with calcium, phosphate, and fluoride, which help remineralize teeth. Preventive measures include antibacterial rinses and toothpastes, fluoride, diet, sealants, and the use of sugarless gum to increase saliva. Sealants may be used as a preventative measure.
