Biomimetic Dentistry

Biomimetic Dentistry

The Future of Dentistry
What is Biomimetic Dentistry?
Biomimetic Dentistry is rooted in the concept of Biomimetics, which means to mimic nature or biology.
The approach of Biomimetic Dentistry is to imitate the natural tooth structure, eliminating the need for invasive and unnecessary dental procedures. In order to preserve and protect the intact tooth structure, Biomimetic Dentistry exposes and eradicates dental problems before they occur. At Columbus Avenue Smiles, Dr. Mark McCall and his team use the principles of Biomimetic Dentistry to guide their overall mission and dental practice.

Why Choose Biomimetic Dentistry over Traditional Dentistry?
What if we told you that 80% of root canals are preventable? The solution is biomimetic dentistry. Traditional dentistry practices such as metal crowns and root canal treatments destroy the natural tooth structure by using destructive restorative solutions. Unfortunately, these intrusive measures often lead to tooth sensitivity, stress, pain and further decay which requires further extensive treatment.

Quick Facts

Biomimetic Dentistry:


  • Increases bond strength by 400%.


  • Reduces the need for root canals and crowns up to 90%.


  • Saves Money. Traditional restorations cost up to 360% more over the lifestyle of a tooth compared to biomimetic techniques.


  • Strengthens your teeth. Teeth are 3X more resistant to dental fractures, decay and pulp deaths.


  • Provides 50% greater tooth preservation.
Biomimetic Dentistry prioritizes two essential concepts: preservation and conservation. Biomimetic Dentistry focuses on increasing the overall strength and vitality of the tooth by preserving as much of your natural tooth as possible. This is accomplished by performing less invasive procedures. When a tooth needs to undergo some type of restorative measure, Biomimetic Dentistry calls for restorative solutions that imitate the properties of the healthy, intact tooth structure. These solutions include procedures such as dental fillings and ceramic coverings. After the tooth has been restored, Biomimetic Dentistry conserves your natural teeth by sealing them against future decay. The takeaway? Biomimetic Dentistry is a conservative and safe approach that increases tooth vitality and naturally protects the tooth from infection and disease.

Our Philosophy

The philosophy of our dental practice is simple:

The best dentistry is NO DENTISTRY.

We want you to be healthy. If we can help you prevent disease, you are ahead of the game. If there is treatment needed, then it is a biomimetic approach. Biomimetic means to “mimic life,” and in dentistry that means using advanced bonding techniques, preserving the good tooth structure, and restoring the tooth as close to nature as we can. Traditional crowns can be avoided 90% of the time. When the teeth are restored & sealed using these techniques, the need for root canal therapy is dramatically reduced. These techniques do take more time to perform, but in the long run can save a significant amount of money. If saving money and having a healthy mouth and body are important to you, our practice should be a good fit.
