Biological Dentist in North Austin, TX

Our Advanced Biologic Approach

We integrate leading-edge technology and biologic therapies to improve outcomes while minimizing unnecessary stress on the body.

Laser Dentistry (Fotona Technology)

We incorporate Fotona Nd:YAG and Er:YAG lasers to disinfect and decontaminate tissue, support periodontal therapy, enhance healing response, and perform minimally invasive procedures.

Ozone Therapy (Gas & Liquid)

We utilize ozone to eliminate harmful bacteria, disinfect treatment areas, and support healing.

Platelet-Rich Fibrin (PRF)

Platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) is a regenerative material derived from your own blood, used to support healing and enhance the body’s natural repair processes. A small sample of blood is drawn and gently processed to concentrate platelets, growth factors, and fibrin into a biologically active matrix used during treatment.

PRF is used in our practice to:

• Accelerate healing following extractions and surgical procedures
• Reduce inflammation and post-operative discomfort
• Support regeneration of bone and soft tissue
• Improve overall healing quality and stability

In addition to surgical applications, PRF can also be utilized in cases of deep decay. By placing PRF in strategic areas, we can support the vitality of the tooth and encourage natural healing, which may help reduce the need for root canal treatment in certain cases. Because PRF is created from your own blood, it is completely biocompatible, free from additives or synthetic materials, and designed to work in harmony with your body’s natural healing processes.

Tooth Remineralization with Curodont

We offer non-invasive treatment options designed to support the natural healing of early tooth decay. Curodont is a biomimetic peptide-based technology that works by encouraging the natural remineralization of enamel. It contains a self-assembling peptide polymer that penetrates early areas of enamel breakdown.

Once applied, the peptide diffuses into microscopic pores of demineralized enamel and self-assembles into a three-dimensional scaffold that mimics the natural matrix of the tooth and attracts calcium and phosphate ions from saliva. Over time, this supports regeneration of hydroxyapatite crystals within the lesion, rebuilding enamel from within — allowing treatment of early decay without drilling, and preserving natural tooth structure.

Photobiomodulation (PBM)

Photobiomodulation (PBM) uses specific wavelengths of light to stimulate cellular activity and enhance the body’s natural healing processes. At the cellular level, PBM works by interacting with the mitochondria — the part of the cell responsible for producing energy.

Light energy is absorbed by cytochrome c oxidase within the mitochondria, which leads to increased ATP production, improved cellular metabolism and repair, modulation of reactive oxygen species, and release of nitric oxide to enhance blood flow and oxygen delivery to tissues. Through these mechanisms, PBM helps reduce inflammation, accelerate tissue healing, decrease discomfort, and improve overall cellular function in the treated area.

Cosmetic Dentistry with a Biologic & Structural Focus

We believe the best dentistry is the most minimal. Our cosmetic dentistry approach enhances your smile while preserving natural tooth structure, using ultra-thin restorations and biologically compatible materials.

Restorative Dentistry with a Biomimetic Approach

We restore teeth in a way that mimics natural structure and function. Our restorative dentistry approach preserves healthy tooth structure, reinforces teeth against stress, and avoids unnecessary crowns — often at less cost than a crown while preserving more of the natural tooth.

Gingival and Periodontal Therapies and Oral Microbiome Support

We provide targeted care for gingivitis and periodontitis by focusing on restoring balance to the oral microbiome and reducing bacterial burden. Our approach to biologic periodontal care includes:

• Deep cleaning procedures supported with ozone gas to disinfect gingival and periodontal tissues
• Ozone-infused liquid delivered through the cavitron to flush bacteria from periodontal pockets
• Targeted binders to support detoxification and reduce inflammatory burden
• Oral probiotics, including BioGaia, to help reestablish beneficial bacterial balance
• Ozone ear insufflation to support lymphatic drainage and systemic detox pathways

By combining mechanical therapy with biologic support, we aim to create a healthier oral environment and support long-term periodontal stability.

Zirconia Implants (SDS)

When patients require tooth replacement, we offer biocompatible zirconia implants as a metal-free alternative. Zirconia implants are designed to integrate with the body in a way that supports both structural stability and long-term tissue health. Unlike traditional titanium implants, zirconia is a ceramic material that does not conduct electricity and is highly resistant to corrosion.

Zirconia implants are used in our practice to replace missing teeth with a strong, stable foundation, support healthy gum tissue attachment, provide highly esthetic, natural-looking results, and minimize potential inflammatory responses in surrounding tissues.

In recent years, there has been increased awareness around how certain metals may interact within the body. Regulatory agencies, including the FDA, have issued communications regarding potential sensitivities and systemic responses in some individuals exposed to metals. Because zirconia is metal-free, it provides an option for patients who prefer to reduce their overall exposure to metals while still achieving a durable and functional tooth replacement.

Mercury-Free & Biocompatible Dentistry

We follow strict protocols for safe removal of existing amalgam restorations. Our team uses the SMART protocol (Safe Mercury Amalgam Removal Technique) to help minimize exposure and protect both the patient and clinical team. All materials are carefully selected to reduce toxicity, support immune compatibility, and promote long-term health.

Airway-Focused Care

Your oral structures play a critical role in how you breathe, sleep, and function. We evaluate the airway using advanced 3D analysis to better understand structural limitations, airway volume, and how these factors may be impacting overall health. Following a comprehensive evaluation, we walk patients through individualized treatment options designed to improve airway function and support long-term health, including:

• Guidance and resources for myofunctional therapy to support proper muscle function and breathing patterns
• Expansion therapies for both children and adults to increase arch development and airway space
• MARPE referrals when skeletal expansion is indicated
• Clear aligner expansion techniques to increase oral cavity size
• Labial and lingual frenectomies to release restrictive fascial attachments

By addressing airway structure and function, we support improved breathing, better sleep, and overall health. Learn more about our snoring and sleep apnea solutions and TMJ/TMD treatment.

Conditions We Commonly Address

• Mercury filling removal
• Root canal removal
• TMJ concerns
• Airway and sleep issues
• Cavitations
• Long-term restorative care

Biologic Tooth Extraction & Cavitation Surgery

We perform biologic extractions and cavitation surgery with thorough removal of infection and support for proper healing. Read more about our approach to oral surgery.

Advanced Diagnostic Testing for Jawbone Infections

We utilize PCR testing and pathology to understand underlying conditions while maintaining a consistent surgical approach.

At Bruno Integrative Dentistry, that means combining advanced diagnostics, biocompatible materials, and minimally invasive techniques so every treatment decision supports both your smile and your long-term health.

Are zirconia implants better than titanium?

Zirconia implants offer a metal-free, highly biocompatible alternative to titanium, which some patients prefer to reduce their overall metal exposure.

Is ozone therapy safe?

Yes — when used appropriately by a trained provider, ozone is a powerful, well-tolerated antimicrobial tool.

Do you still offer traditional dentistry?

Yes, enhanced with biologic principles throughout.
