BIOMIMETIC DENTISTRY
WHAT IS BIOMIMETIC DENTISTRY?
Biomimetic means to mimic nature. The goal is to restore teeth with decay or cracks to their natural strength and structure. Replicating this natural state blocks bacteria from entering, prevents cracks and preserves the vitality of the pulp indefinitely. In clinical practice, over 10,000 biomimetic restorations have lasted 20 years and counting, and patients have experienced the highest quality of care resulting in long-lasting, symptom-free restorations.
BENEFITS OF BIOMIMETIC DENTISTRY
During a biomimetic restoration, more of your tooth is saved, compared to traditional procedures like crowns, which irreversibly remove healthy parts of your tooth.
Biomimetic treatments create a strong bond that protects against bacteria entering around the restoration. Traditional practices can lead to failed bonds, which increase decay, cracks and sensitivity.
Saving your healthy tooth structure is our highest priority. After a biomimetic restoration, teeth chew and behave naturally, giving you a healthier smile.
A traditional crown will last an average of four years and will likely become symptomatic. Biomimetic restorations repair the tooth from the bottom up and last over 20 years based on current clinical data.
