Abstract
MORADAS ESTRADA, M.. Actually in conservative dentistry laser: indications, advantages and possible risks. Literature review. Av Odontoestomatol [online]. 2016, vol.32, n.6, pp.309-315. ISSN 2340-3152.
Today the term minimally invasive dentistry is a concept widely used, but sometimes incorrectly. It is defined as a philosophy of prevention when making any treatment in the mouth, assessment of individual risks, accurate and early detection of lesions, as well as efforts to remineralize lesions cavitated for preventive care and mineralize injuries already existing. This kind of "discipline" or procedure can be developed from various techniques and/or instruments, such as ultrasound, air brasion, or laser micro CT and its different types and applications. Therefore we believe important to establish principles, bases or protocol on what the laser in our profession and within the field of our subspecialty, conservative dentistry and range of options can find us and how can be directed to specific indications with the advantages or disadvantages that this may bring us.
