What does the Bioclear procedure consist of?
Bioclear procedures must follow a very strict and systemized protocol in order to produce beautiful and long lasting restorations. Dr. Baik will first polish and/or "blast" your teeth (with Aluminum Trihydroxide powder) to remove all "biofilms" (layers of bacteria) from the teeth. Once the teeth are prepped with this step, (being free of bacteria), Dr. Baik will then adapt clear "Bioclear Matrices" over your teeth to isolate the area and use them as molds for the special heated composite resin (Filtek Supreme by 3M). With multiple additional steps of "prepping teeth" such as etching, bonding agent application, and heated flowable composite application, "Bioclear Matrices" are injection molded with Filtek Supreme Composite to create strong "monolithic" restorations. Ultraviolet light is then used to cure the composite (hardens it). Once the composite resin is adequately cured, Dr. Baik will then use his artistic and exceptional hand-eye coordination ability to contour and polish the material to form beautiful and natural looking teeth.
