Slow Dentistry
Early detection of dental problems is vital for effective treatment. With microscope dentistry, dentists can detect problems at a very early stage because of the magnified view they have of the oral structures.
Its cornerstones Slow Dentistry®:
1. Anesthesia - complete anesthesia of the operation area before performing each treatment (if required)
2. Rubber Isolator - application of rubber isolator to all splints and other dental procedures to ensure isolation and prevent contamination.
3. Disinfection of the area - complete and appropriate disinfection of international and Greek guidelines to prevent contamination (hand washing, dental chairs, handles, floor, surfaces, etc.)
4. Informed consent - fully informing and understanding patients about each treatment, explaining risks and benefits in detail.
