Abstract
In today's era, the human race is blindly running behind aesthetically pleasing procedures for the sake of acceptance in society wherein they lose their authenticity. Similar is the case with dentistry in which the biggest contradiction of modern restorative dentistry is that many of such artful procedures require the removal of existing dental tissue before a final prosthesis can be placed.
In order to save a tooth, existing dental archetypes demand that a portion of the target tooth must be defaced. Hence, we are forced to think that if the goal of modern dentistry is to save and salvage as much of a patient’s natural dentition as possible, how does it make sense to rely on procedures that require the sabotage of the very thing you are trying to save? That’s where biomimetic dentistry comes in. Upholding the natural teeth and dental conservancy at the heart is Biomimetic dentistry. This new approach is all about being on the lookout for the synthesis of modern dental technologies and low-impact tooth conservation. Instead of relying on dental replacements, biomimetic dentistry is about perpetuating as much of a natural tooth as possible. Instead of housing over dental blemishes, it is about repairing and restoring existing dental surfaces. Instead of relying on dental techniques that remove or destroy parts of an existing tooth, such as dental extractions, crowns, and root canals, biomimetic techniques strive to cut back on the removal of natural dental material. It’s all about safeguarding what's there as much as possible and making it stronger and more resilient. Thus, the purpose of this article is to review various methods that not only result in a tooth that is more natural, but also more aesthetic, stronger, and longer lasting.
