The MiCD movement is being adopted by clinicians the world over by successfully integrating Minimally Invasive Cosmetic Dentistry in their practice. Minimally invasive techniques and principles have revolutionised the approach to cosmetic dentistry which is traditionally known to be more invasive. The MiCD concept promotes the conservation of sound tooth structure while achieving predictable smile aesthetics and imparting a positive psychological impact on the patient.

Lecture Title: Challenging the Status Quo with Invisible Restorations
Synopsis
Management of multiple restorations in the same quadrant is challenging due to the variation in the type and extent of defects, it also offers the opportunity for a more time-efficient, holistic approach to patient care, instead of placing multiple, adhoc restorations, one appointment at a time.
With time and cost benefits to both the dental team and patient, such a restorative protocol saves chair time and increases productivity, while adopting a minimally invasive approach to providing invisible restorations for the entire quadrant.
Embark on the restorative journey with Dr. Anand as he shares tips and tricks to creating invisible restorations by understanding natural tooth colour, principles of shade matching and simplified techniques using bioactive composites. This presentation will showcase a variety of clinical scenarios where Minimally Invasive Cosmetic Dentistry (MiCD) treatment protocols have been adopted to create highly aesthetic, functional and invisible restorations that blend seamlessly with natural teeth
