Experience Sustainable Results With Biomimetic Dental Care
Whatever treatment you need, Dr. Jivraj and his entire team are committed to giving you care that promotes good dental health and general well-being. We use advanced techniques to ensure that you keep your healthy tissue and treat only what needs to be treated. We call this tooth preservation. In other words, we want to be as minimally invasive as possible and find solutions that will keep your mouth healthy without causing damage!
This encompasses all of our dental restorations, such as:
- Tooth Fillings - We will use air abrasion and dental laser treatment to remove only the decayed area from your tooth. We'll then fill your tooth with a strong, biocompatible, tooth-colored material that will look and feel like your natural tooth enamel. No more large holes and metal fillings!
- Dental Crowns and Bridges - Our in-house prosthodontists will recommend the most complementary materials to create your crowns and bridges. They will be made at our in-house lab by master technicians who are under Dr. Jivraj's supervision. Whenever possible, we will use an inlay or onlay to preserve as much of your natural tooth as possible.
- Dental Implants - Our implant process is to preserve as much of your natural bone as possible so that your jaw remains healthy and strong. Our implants are artificial tooth roots that will be made of materials that fuse with your bone and withstand your natural biting force. You can expect better oral function overall and a natural-feeling replacement tooth.
By choosing our practice, you'll find specialists to meet your unique dental needs, whether you need a restoration, root canal, or treatment for gum disease. We go above and beyond for our patients!

Common Questions About Biomimetic Dentistry
What is biomimetic dentistry?
Biomimetic dentistry is essentially dentistry that works to preserve your natural tooth, bone, and tissue structures without causing damage during treatment. In other words, we make it our goal to be minimally invasive with our treatment so that you maintain what nature has given you.
What are some examples of biomimetic dentistry?
One of the most common procedures we perform is a tooth filling. In the past, the common practice would be to remove a large section of an otherwise healthy tooth and fill it with a metal or amalgam filling. The biomimetic dentistry approach is to use precise treatment tools, such as lasers and air abrasion, to remove only the decayed area of the tooth. We then fill the area left behind with biocompatible composite resin to restore your tooth back to function. If you have a large area of decay, we would try to restore your tooth with an inlay or onlay rather than removing healthy tooth in order to place a dental crown.
Is biomimetic dentistry expensive?
You'll find that biomimetic dentistry is very cost-effective because it is minimally invasive. The entire goal is to do LESS to your natural tooth so that it remains as strong as possible throughout your entire life. Biomimetic treatments are very precise and predictable.
