Biocompatible
Dentistry
Biocompatible dentistry is a holistic dental approach that utilizes materials specifically tested to be non-toxic and harmonious with your unique biology. At Collective Health Society in Centennial, CO, we believe that what goes in your mouth affects your entire system. Serving the entire Denver Metro area, we are dedicated to restoring your smile using only the safest, most durable, and biologically neutral materials available.

Why Material Choice Matters
Not all dental materials are created equal. Traditional dentistry often relies on metals and chemicals that can trigger immune responses, create galvanic currents, or cause chronic inflammation in sensitive individuals.
Biocompatible dentistry focuses on using materials that the body recognizes as “self” or neutral, minimizing stress on the immune system. This approach is essential for patients with:
- Metal allergies or sensitivities
- Autoimmune conditions
- Chemical sensitivities (MCS)
- Chronic inflammation
- History of eczema or skin rashes
- Desire for a toxin-free lifestyle
We invite patients from across Denver to experience dentistry that supports, rather than challenges, their overall health.
Benefits of
Biocompatible Care
Systemic Harmony
By eliminating toxic burdens like mercury and reactive metals, we reduce the total stress load on your immune system, allowing your body to focus energy on healing and maintenance rather than fighting foreign substances.
Natural Aesthetics
Biocompatible materials like ceramic and porcelain mimic natural enamel perfectly. They are translucent, durable, and stain-resistant, providing a restoration that is indistinguishable from a healthy, natural tooth.
Strength & Preservation
Modern bonded restorations strengthen the tooth by chemically adhering to it, unlike metal fillings which require healthy tooth structure to be drilled away for retention. This preserves more of your natural tooth.
Our Biocompatible Solutions
We use a curated selection of materials chosen for their safety, purity, and performance.
BPA-Free Composites
For smaller fillings, we use high-quality composite resins that are free from Bis-GMA and BPA derivatives. These materials are durable, esthetic, and safe for patients of all ages.
Zirconia (Ceramic) Implants
We offer metal-free Zirconia implants as a superior alternative to titanium. Zirconia is hypoallergenic, promotes healthier gum tissue response, and eliminates the risk of corrosion.
Biocompatible Materials Testing
For highly sensitive patients, we offer Clifford Materials Reactivity Testing (CMRT) or similar blood panels to scientifically determine exactly which dental materials your immune system will tolerate best.
Porcelain Inlays & Onlays
When a filling is too large but a crown isn't needed, we use porcelain inlays and onlays. These custom-made restorations are bonded to the tooth, restoring up to 98% of its original strength.
Ozone Therapy
We use medical-grade ozone gas and water to disinfect teeth and gums naturally. It kills bacteria, viruses, and fungi on contact without toxic chemicals, promoting faster healing.
Metal-Free Crowns & Bridges
Our crowns are crafted from high-strength ceramics like e.max or Zirconia. They contain no metal substructure, eliminating the "grey line" at the gum and preventing galvanic currents.
Remineralization Therapy
We use bioactive materials that release calcium and phosphate to help heal early cavities naturally, often avoiding the need for drilling altogether in the early stages of decay.
Fluoride-Free Options
We respect patient choice and offer effective, natural alternatives to fluoride, such as nano-hydroxyapatite, which remineralizes enamel without the systemic risks associated with fluoride ingestion.
The Biocompatible
Approach
Health History Review
Based on your health history, we may recommend biocompatibility testing before any restorative procedure—whether it's a filling, crown, bridge, implant, or any other treatment involving materials placed in your mouth.
Biocompatibility Testing
If indicated, we use serum testing to identify which dental materials—composites, ceramics, cements, adhesives, and implant materials—your immune system will tolerate best, eliminating guesswork.
Personalized Material Selection
Dr. Katie Lee reviews your test results and selects the specific materials for your restoration—whether that's a filling, onlay, crown, bridge, or implant—ensuring every component is compatible with your biology.
Minimally Invasive Placement
Using conservative techniques, ozone disinfection, and laser therapy, we place your restoration with precision—preserving healthy tissue and supporting long-term systemic wellness.
