Natural & Cosmetic Dentistry: Biocompatibility Test in Clearwater and Personalized Material Compatibility Solutions
At Natural and Cosmetic Dentistry in Clearwater, FL, we believe every smile—and every body—is unique. That’s why Dr. Beata A. Carlson, Dr. Michael “Mikey” Thomas, and Dr. Lewis Luo recommend dental biocompatibility testing to help select restorative materials that align with your individual biology. This simple, lab-based blood test screens your immune system’s reactivity to thousands of dental materials, guiding safer, smarter treatment choices.
What is a dental biocompatibility test?
A biocompatibility test evaluates how your serum (the clear portion of your blood) reacts to the components of common dental materials. The lab compares your sample against the ingredients found in more than 11,000 products used in dentistry—things like composites, cements, bonding agents, crowns (high noble, low noble), ceramics, denture materials, temporary materials, and more.
Your report organizes materials into 21 categories and classifies your personal reactivity to each product as:
-
Highly Reactive
-
Moderately Reactive
-
Least Reactive
There is no “non-reactive” category—because the immune system may respond (even subtly) to anything it recognizes as “non-self.” Our goal is to favor the least reactive choices for you.
Why consider a biocompatibility test?
-
Holistic alignment: Supports whole-body wellness by minimizing exposure to ingredients that may provoke your immune system.
-
Personalized planning: Helps our dentists curate material lists tailored to you before fillings, crowns, implants, dentures, or cosmetic work.
-
Peace of mind: Especially helpful for patients with sensitivities, autoimmune conditions, multiple chemical sensitivities, or a history of adverse reactions.
-
SMART, mercury-safe care: Complements our biological protocols (including IAOMT SMART for amalgam removal) by guiding what we place after safe removal.

Plan Your Biocompatibility Test for the Best Results
Set yourself up for a smooth, biology-first visit:
- Time it right: Order your Biocompatibility Test about 2–3 weeks before planned restorations so your report is ready for review.
- Gather your history: Note any previous dental materials or brands you’ve had placed; this context helps interpret results.
- List sensitivities: Record any reactions to metals, adhesives, or medications so your materials shortlist reflects your needs.
- Share the report: Have the lab email the e-report to you and our practice so we can align on the most compatible options.
- Brand preferences welcome: If you favor certain composites, cements, or ceramics, we’ll cross-reference them with your results.
- Tight timeline? Choose the lab’s rush processing at checkout.
