Minimal intervention dentistry allows offering patients a gentle treatment, improving the behavioral approach and helping the patient's adaptation to dental treatment. The aim of this report is to describe the management with minimal intervention dentistry in a 5-year-old female patient with a diagnosis of tetralogy of Fallot.
Conclusion:
Minimal intervention dentistry was effective in the treatment of patients with congenital heart disease, providing significant tools aimed at improving behavior, offering simple, fast and conservative treatments. It gives the possibility of this type of treatment in any other patient with medical compromise.
