Minimally Invasive Dentistry

Modern clinical techniques and innovative dental materials have opened doors to a whole new paradigm of restorative dentistry. For our littlest kiddos, children with severe dental anxiety, or patients with special health care needs, minimally-invasive dentistry can lead patients to better outcomes. For appropriate clinical scenarios, we might consider putting down the needle and drill and reassess the need for traditional dentistry. Sometimes less is more and these procedures can provide definitive care with minimal grief.

Silver-Diamine Fluoride (SDF)
The availability of silver diamine fluoride has been a game changer for pediatric dentistry. The "blue medicine" can help stop decay progression, buy more time before definitive treatment is needed, and can offer a quick and easy therapy for decayed baby teeth.

SMART Technique
Atraumatic Restorative Technique (ART) and Silver Modified Atraumatic Restorative Technique (SMART) are great alternatives to traditional restorative dentistry. The use of state-of-the-art materials with a minimally-invasive treatment approach can lead to great outcomes.


Hall Technique
The Hall Technique involves a minimally-invasive application of traditional silver molar crowns. New evidence points to great outcomes for recipients of Hall crowns and gives us confidence in another great treatment option.
