Minimally Invasive Endodontics

The less is more" concept is a philosophy of living, based on the principles of minimalism and simplicity: very often people confuse "simple" with "simplistic". The objectives of minimally invasive dentistry must not have to be misinterpreted by assuming that they are interested only in simplistic procedures. "Minimally invasive dentistry" is a philosophy based on evolution of the instruments, materials and techniques, which permits the clinicians to overcome some myths and dogmas deep-rooted in the feld and embrace the paradigm shift concept. It represents a fundamental change in the basic concepts and experimental practices of a scientific discipline. Paradigm shifts, which characterize a scientific revolution, arise when the dominant paradigm under which normal science operates is rendered incompatible with new phenomena, facilitating the adoption of a new theory or paradigm. The journey that tried to trace in the present book aims to give the reader a balanced view on the minimally invasive approaches in endodontic practice, describing the most advanced clinical procedures, supported by the most updated scientific data.
