Dr. Gene Allen is one of less than 200 dentists nationwide trained by Dr. David Alleman, in  the latest techniques in tooth-conserving dentistry. Through this training, we are virtually  eliminating the need for removing healthy tooth structure to fit a crown over your tooth.  More importantly, the need for root canal therapy is dramatically reduced as well. What's  different about tooth conserving dentistry? Instead of just simply filling your cavities, tooth  conserving dentistry keeps the patient's long-term dental health in focus. By sealing the  tooth against bacterial infection, tooth conserving dentists make sure they stop any further  dental problems and avoid the possibility of more serious dental problems. Tooth conserving dentistry treats weak, fractured, and decayed teeth in a way that keeps them strong and  seals them from bacterial invasion. Careful sealing against infection removes the need for  60% to 90% of the crowns and root canals of traditional dentistry. What is wrong with  conventional dentistry? Conventional dentistry techniques don't take advantage of the  advanced ceramics and adhesives developed by modern engineering. These new  technologies allow dentists to use small onlays that work more like your own teeth than the  large porcelain crowns used in traditional dentistry. Old techniques can cause your teeth to  eventually crack and leak, allowing bacteria to enter the tooth from the inside and cause  decay. Tooth conserving dentistry locks out the bacteria, for safer, stronger dental work. Who invented tooth conserving dentistry? The principles of tooth conserving dentistry were  developed by researchers at prestigious universities in Tokyo, Geneva, Rome, Amsterdam,  Houston, Portland, and Hong Kong, and are taught in a hands-on course by Dr. David  Alleman. What is in the future? This is a movement that will become the standard of care.  Another name for this tooth conserving procedure is Biomimetic dentistry. Sincerely, Gene Allen D.D. S.
