With the improvement of adhesive techniques and materials, a different posture of professionals was observed, especially the younger ones, who developed a more conscious mentality regarding the maintenance of these structures during the course of restorative techniques. Final considerations: Minimally Invasive Dentistry has shown effectiveness in the established treatments, making it clear that the improvement of restorative materials, which have attributions to act with adhesive characteristics, is of great relevance in the form of clinical conduct established by the professional.
