In modern society, we come in contact with many substances that can affect each of us differently and in varying degrees of toxicity.
Biocompatibility testing is a comprehensive test that helps us determine whether dental materials are “Highly Reactive, Moderately Reactive, or Least Reactive”. This information allows Dr. Narang to prevent and avoid dental toxicity by using the least reactive materials for your dental treatment needs.
Evaluation of the immune status as it relates to dental materials is important, especially if you have allergies, metal sensitivities, immune disorders, etc. The Clifford Materials Reactivity Test screens patient blood samples for antibodies which have been specifically formed against harmful agents.
Dr. Narang then chooses dental materials based on their reactivity, the functional needs of your teeth and mouth, your cosmetic needs and material durability.
