WHAT IS BIOMIMETIC DENTISTRY?

Biomimetic dentistry is known as the art and science of restoring damaged teeth and use materials that mimic the properties of natural teeth—strength, appearance, and function.

The goals of biomimetic dentistry are to:

– Conserve as much of the tooth structure as possible

– Preserve tooth vitality and prevent unnecessary root canals

– Restore teeth that would otherwise need an extraction

– Increase the bond strength of our restorations by 400%

– Minimize shrinkage stress on the teeth

– Eliminate sensitivity

– Create long-lasting restorations that prevent complications experienced with traditional approaches

Dr. Labib practices tooth-conserving dentistry using several biomimetic techniques, including removing as little actual tooth tissue as possible when treating cavities and infections.
