Concluzii

Stomatologia ultraconservativa reprezinta un mare pas inainte pentru stomatolog, pentru stomatologie si pentru pacient. Presupune diagnosticarea precoce si indepartarea completa a tuturor suprafetelor cariate de pe dinte. Cariile netratate pot fi foarte distructive. Tratarea precoce a cariilor mentine sanatatea dentara si creste probabilitatea ca restaurarea sa se mentina cat mai mult timp.
