Biocompatible Materials in Dentistry
At Shore Smiles Dental, P.C., we believe that your dental health is a vital part of your overall well-being. That’s why we’re committed to using the safest, most effective materials available—especially when it comes to restorations and long-term dental work. One of the most exciting advancements in modern dentistry is the use of biocompatible materials, which are designed to work in harmony with your body.
These innovative materials offer not only strength and longevity but also a safer, more holistic approach to dental care. Let’s take a closer look at why biocompatibility matters—and how it benefits you.
What Are Biocompatible Materials?
Biocompatible materials are those that do not cause irritation, allergic reactions, or immune responses when placed in the body. In dentistry, these materials are used for everything from fillings and crowns to implants and bridges.
Unlike traditional materials that may contain metals or chemicals that some patients are sensitive to, biocompatible alternatives—like zirconia, titanium, and composite resins—are carefully selected to support the body’s natural healing processes while minimizing risk.
Why Shore Smiles Dental Uses Biocompatible Materials
Our goal at Shore Smiles Dental, P.C. is to provide dental care that’s not only effective but also aligned with your body’s natural biology. Here are just a few reasons why we’ve chosen to incorporate biocompatible materials into our treatments:
Materials We Trust and Use
At Shore Smiles Dental, P.C., we proudly use the following biocompatible materials in our treatments:
Zirconia
A strong, ceramic material used for crowns, bridges, and dental implants. Its tooth-like appearance and biocompatibility make it a top choice for natural-looking restorations.
Titanium
The gold standard for dental implants, titanium is widely respected for its ability to fuse with bone and support long-term function.
Composite Resins
Used for tooth-colored fillings and cosmetic bonding, these resins are designed to be safe, aesthetic, and long-lasting.
Glass Ionomer Cement (GIC)
A restorative material that releases fluoride over time, helping to protect and remineralize teeth.
