Curodont^™

Curodont^™ is a biomimetic treatment that can repair the very earliest stages of tooth decay — before a cavity ever forms — without any drilling, anesthesia, or discomfort.

How it works

Curodont^™ uses a self-assembling peptide technology that mimics the natural building blocks of tooth enamel. Once applied, it forms a scaffold deep within an early enamel lesion that attracts calcium and phosphate — the minerals your saliva already provides — guiding your tooth to regenerate and re-harden its own structure from the inside out.

Who it's for

• Early "white spot" lesions, often found after braces or aligners come off
• Incipient decay caught on X-rays before it's progressed to a true cavity
• Patients who want to avoid a filling for the earliest, most reversible stage of decay
• Children and adults alike — the treatment is gentle and completely painless

The process

Treatment takes just one short visit. We clean and prepare the tooth surface, apply a gel to gently open the lesion, then apply the Curodont^™ treatment directly to the affected area. No numbing, no drilling, and no downtime — you can eat and drink normally right away.

Why we love it

Curodont^™ lets us treat decay at its earliest, most conservative stage — often the difference between a simple, painless treatment today and a filling (or more) down the road. We'll let you know at your regular checkups if you're a good candidate.
