Eliminación selectiva de tejido cariado en odontología mínimamente invasiva: revisión de literatura

Objective: This study aims to evaluate current techniques in minimally invasive dentistry and compare their effectiveness and advantages with conventional methods. Methods: A search was conducted in PubMed, ScienceDirect, and Google Scholar databases, including studies that assess new carious tissue removal techniques within minimally invasive dentistry. After the search, 28 studies were selected. Results: The research shows that selective carious tissue removal is safe and has success rates comparable to conventional techniques. Conclusion: Minimally invasive techniques, such as selective carious tissue removal, are a safe strategy that allows for the conservation of most of the dental tissue, offering multiple advantages over conventional techniques.
