Abstract

Regenerate, bioactivate: Treating patients in the 21st century

Fay Goldstep

Today’s dental materials and technology can predictably regenerate and remineralize lost oral structures. Bioactive minimally invasive dentistry is the proactive way to treat patients and what they are demanding. Decay can be detected, mapped and treated with bioactive materials that reduce restorative failure: Glass Ionomer Cements, Giomers, Biodentine, ceramic luting, bioceramic obturation. Periodontal disease is chronic inflammation unchecked. Lasers and other non-invasive therapies can repair and heal.
