Minimal Invasive Dentistry is a philosophy that integrates prevention, remineralization , repair and minimal surgical intervention to address the oral diseases at a microscopic level. With an approach to "nib the evil in the bud", Minimal Intervention Dentistry (MID)is the modern medical approach to the management of caries, utilizing caries risk assessment, and focusing on the early prevention and interception of disease. Moving the focus away from the restoration of teeth allows the dentist to achieve maximum intervention, with minimal invasive treatments. This conservative philosophy not only reduces restorative procedure time but also the pain and stress, which eventually results in decreased patient anxiety. MID should be the standard of care in modern dentistry, as it avoids over-zealous restorative interventions as well as supervised neglect. As the dental profession grapples with the challenges of dealing with high rates of dental diseases in socially disadvantaged and medically compromised patients, it is even more important to incorporate these concepts into practice for the preventive and therapeutic management of oral diseases.
