About Gregorin Dental
Gregorin Dental is a second-generation dental practice at 7985 E 16th Ave #300 in Anchorage, Alaska, where restorative work is organised around a biomimetic approach: preserving and restoring teeth with techniques and materials that mimic the natural structure and function of the tooth rather than removing sound structure to accommodate metal. The practice describes this as minimally invasive treatment using biocompatible materials, with the stated aim of conserving as much natural tooth structure as possible and building restorations intended to avoid complications associated with traditional approaches. Alongside this restorative focus, the clinic provides general, preventive and cosmetic dentistry for families, and its clinicians are recorded with the Academy of Biomimetic Dentistry. Adjunct technology includes iTero digital scanning for crowns and bridges, digital radiography, intraoral photography and ultrasonic scaling.

Common Questions
What does a biomimetic approach change about restorative treatment here?
The practice states that biomimetic dentistry preserves and restores teeth using techniques and materials that mimic the natural structure and function of the tooth, rather than the extensive drilling and metallic or non-natural materials of conventional work. Its stated goal is to conserve as much natural tooth structure as possible, reduce the need for future dental work, and support the tooth's own healing processes.
Which credential body is recorded for this practice's clinicians?
Membership of the Academy of Biomimetic Dentistry is recorded for this practice.
How are impressions taken for crowns and bridges?
The practice uses an iTero digital scanner with a handheld wand to produce fully digital impressions instead of conventional moulds. The scans are sent directly to the dental laboratory, which the clinic says supports accurate and faster production of crowns and bridges, reduces the number of visits required, and improves the fit and function of the finished restoration.
What radiography and diagnostic imaging does the clinic use?
Digital radiography is used in place of film, at roughly one fifth of the radiation dose, producing immediate high-resolution images that can be shared electronically for consultation. The clinic names internal decay, cysts indicating infection, tumours, impacted teeth and developmental problems as findings it screens for. An intraoral camera about the size of a toothbrush shows patients decay, broken fillings and fractured teeth directly.
What happens at a first visit, and is sedation available for anxious patients?
A first appointment typically includes a comprehensive oral examination, radiographs where indicated, and a cleaning, with a discussion of dental history and concerns before a personalised treatment plan is set. Simple procedures such as a cleaning or filling may begin the same day; more complex treatment is usually scheduled separately. The practice states that it offers sedation options for patients anxious about treatment.
How does the practice handle implant restoration?
The clinic restores implants rather than treating them as standalone hardware, selecting shade and taking an impression before posts are placed, then allowing a healing phase during which bone grows around the post and a temporary prosthetic is worn. Definitive prosthetics follow once the posts can support load, as individual crowns, a bridge attached to adjoining teeth, or full or partial dentures. Bone grafting may be required where bone loss has occurred.
