Tooth wear, both localized and generalized, is increasingly common due to an ageing population, rising demand for aesthetic and restorative dentistry, and the prevalence of pathological non-carious tooth surface loss, including attrition, erosion, and abrasion. This multifactorial issue damages dental tissues and adds complexity to restorative dentistry. Effective management emphasizes straightforward, minimally invasive treatments that preserve tooth structure and accommodate future failures.

Patients frequently present with poor aesthetics, sensitivity, or reduced inter-occlusal space, making restoration particularly challenging. Historically, advanced cases were treated with indirect restorations, which, while durable, required extensive tooth preparation, increasing the risk of non-vitality. Traditional layered composites provided an alternative but often required frequent maintenance due to chipping, fractures, and staining.

The Bioclear Method offers a conservative and innovative solution by utilizing an additive approach that minimizes fractures, chipping, and staining while improving longevity. Bioclear allows for full-coverage veneers, onlays, and crowns with superior aesthetics at reduced financial and biological costs compared to fixed restorations. Additionally, composites serve as a protective layer, preserving underlying tooth structure during wear. This approach simplifies treatment while delivering durable, high-quality outcomes.
