Our practice is owned and lead by Dr. Steven Schiffenhaus & Dr. Alex May - leaders and educators in Biomimetic Restorative Denistry. Our practice philosophy is to help maintain patients natural teeth for as long as possible through minimally invasive techniques and adhesive restorations that "mimic" the natural tooth they are replacing as close as possible.
The more of your tooth that we save the stronger it will be and the better the chance we have of avoiding root canals and/or tooth loss. Dr. May and Dr. Schiffenhaus came together to SLOW things down with the focus being on the patient and doing the highest quality job possible. This is modern dentistry for the whole family!

What is Biomimetic Dentistry
Report
Biomimetic Dentistry is a type of Adhesive Dentistry that uses the natural tooth as the model to restore. Biomimetic Dentistry utilizes the flexibility of modern bonding agents to restore with a minimally invasive approach - because we can bond to the tooth we can preserve much more healthy tooth structure that may be otherwise removed in order to gain mechanical retention of our restorations with traditional approaches.
Overlays Biomimetic Crown Alternative
Report
The Overlay, also known as the "crown-lay", "occlusal veneer", "partial coverage crown", and sometimes "Onlay" - can be considered the modern adhesive alternative to the full crown preparation. At our practice, the only time we place full coverage crowns is to replace existing ones. An overlay is a minimally invasive restoration used in place of a full coverage crown for most of the same indications.
Slow Dentistry
Report
Why would anyone want "slower dentistry"? How can that be a good thing? Most people don't enjoy being worked on, me least of all, and like most people can't wait to get out of the chair. But I, like most of my patients, would prefer the dentist take the time he/she needs to get the job done right, to get a high quality result that will last as long as possible.
Same Day Onlays Crowns
Report
At SofTouch Dental you can receive a ceramic crown, overlay, onlay, and/or veneer in a single visit. This is made possible by our Cerec. Cerec is type of CAD-CAM system. CAD-CAM has been around in dentistry for a few decades now, and has gotten better every year. The traditional way of receiving a permanent ceramic restoration takes two visits.
