| dc.description | Since its birth as a profession and in the XIXth and XXth centuries, Dental Sciences generated overwhelming amount of new knowledge in Cariology, in such dispair areas as basic sciences, tissue engineering and regeneration, microbiology, endogenous and exogenous nutritional factors, social sciences, etc., as well as in prevention, diagnosis, classification, activity, control, monitoring, treatment and rehabilitation of carious lesions.
