Atraumatic Restorative Treatment.

      Аннотация: The basic concepts of the ART technique are the removal of decalcified dental tissues using only readily available hand instruments, following the modern concepts of cavity preparation, and the use of a high technology adhesive restorative material. This technique has the potential to make oral health care more available to a larger part of the world's population than before. Compared to conventional treatment approaches, ART is still very young. progress has been made in researching various aspects of the ART approach. More experience in the actual technique of cleaning carious cavities with hand instruments has been gained and newer, physically stronger glass ionomers have been marketed as a result of its existence. These developments have most probably led to the higher survival results of ART restorations in permanent teeth in the more recent compared to the early studies
