March 31, 2005 -- Midentistry.com has launched “MI book”, an online book store with access to over 200 MI related text books, published conference proceedings or dissertations on: http://www.midentistry.com/mibook.html

MI is a philosophy of professional care, concerned with the first-occurrence, earliest detection and earliest possible treatment of disease on micro (molecular) levels, followed by the most minimal invasive and patient friendly options to repair irreversible damages caused by such disease. MI aims to empower patients (through information, skills and motivation) to be in charge of their own oral health, so that they only require minimal intervention from the dental profession.

-Disease diagnosis & risk assessment
-Disease control
-Minimal invasive treatment
