THE BIOCLEAR METHOD

A modern approach to a new smile

Bioclear is an innovative method to help patients to fix imperfections and improve the look and function of their smiles. It is an ideal option for patients who have:

  • Black triangles (triangular gaps between the teeth)
  • Misshapen teeth
  • Gaps
  • Discoloration or stains
  • Chips
  • Decreased vertical dimension
  • Small or malformed incisors
  • Cracks

Bioclear is a conservative approach to addressing the above concerns. It is minimally invasive and retains more of a patient’s natural tooth structure. The fact that it requires little to no preparation means treatment can be done in a single appointment. We use the Bioclear method for both cosmetic and restorative treatments because it is a faster, longer-lasting alternative to traditional dental bonding and fillings, as well as a comparable, lower-maintenance alternative to veneers and crowns. Dr. Rob is the only dentist in Alaska with full Bioclear certifications since 2017.

HOW BIOCLEAR WORKS

Where artistry meets science

Creating your new smile with Bioclear involves the application of a transparent plastic mold around the teeth requiring restoration. After color-matching, Dr. Rob will add the flowable, semiliquid Bioclear composite resin between the mold and your tooth, sculpting it into the desired state. This is where the artistry comes in as Dr. Rob shapes the Bioclear to perfectly suit your smile. Once this step is complete, we harden the composite using a special curing light, then Dr. Rob polishes it for a stunning finish.

THE BIOCLEAR DIFFERENCE

A brand-new smile in just one appointment

One of the main differences between Bioclear and traditional methods of cosmetic and restorative dentistry is that it is a single-visit solution. Dental crowns and veneers typically take multiple appointments before your smile is complete. There is usually an appointment for digital scans and then another to cement the permanent crowns or veneers once they are ready. With Bioclear, Dr. Rob can finish sculpting your new smile in just one appointment. Bioclear offers a strong, long-lasting alternative to traditional veneers, crowns, and dental bonding treatments. We can even perform simple fillings using the Bioclear method for great, natural-looking results.

BIOCLEAR BENEFITS

Not just a pretty face

Besides creating exceptional smiles, Bioclear offers patients many advantages compared with traditional techniques:

AFFORDABILITY
Bioclear is a cutting-edge technique. However, it is actually a more cost-effective solution for patients than most other options. Porcelain veneers, for example, cost quite a bit more than the price of their Bioclear alternative.

DURABILITY
Bioclear has unique characteristics that make it superior to traditional methods. The Bioclear material flexes with the natural tooth when a patient chews and when the temperature changes from hot to cold and vice versa. This flexibility means Bioclear restorations are less prone to breakage. In fact, Bioclear restorations can last up to 10 years or more. In the unlikely event that a patient does experience a chip or crack in their Bioclear smile, it is easy to repair. In contrast, chipped porcelain veneers or dental crowns must be remade completely.

PATIENT COMFORT
Bioclear doesn’t require the removal of healthy tooth enamel, which means less time in the dental chair and increased patient comfort. Preserving the natural tooth structure means patients can enjoy a minimally invasive and pain-free treatment. Bioclear not only creates exceptional results but also allows for a more positive dental experience.

EXTRA PROTECTION
Dr. Rob bonds Bioclear composite material to your natural teeth, providing an additional layer of protection from everyday wear and tear. The durable Bioclear material acts as a shield against potential damage, harmful bacteria, and decay.

A STAIN-RESISTANT SMILE
Some dental materials are more prone to staining than others, which can be cause for disappointment if you’ve invested in a new smile. However, Bioclear is stain resistant. We can easily polish away any surface stains at your routine preventive dental cleanings.

VERSATILITY
Bioclear has a wide variety of applications. Whether you want to improve your smile for cosmetic reasons or improve function through a full mouth restoration, Dr. Rob can customize a treatment plan to suit.

REVERSIBILITY
Bioclear cosmetic treatments are completely reversible. If you decide you want to change your smile or opt for other treatments like traditional veneers later on, Bioclear is easily removable.

WHY NOT ALL DENTISTS OFFER BIOCLEAR

The expertise required behind the scenes

Not all dentists offer Bioclear as a solution because it requires extensive additional training and certifications, as well as a significant investment of both time and money. Bioclear requires certification to ensure dentists who offer it are highly skilled in both the Bioclear products and the advanced techniques to perform these restorations.

There are several different levels of certification. Dr. Rob is proudly certified in core anterior (front teeth), core posterior (back teeth), and advanced anterior Bioclear restorations.
