“I have found that Bio-Cap (I have been a fan of Geristore for years) has added another dimension to my practice as I have found that it’s an excellent base to any procedure that I do. It is extremely kind to the pulpar tissue. No more guess work as far as what base to use.”Dr. Allan Garvis

What people say!
Bio-Cap
“Bio-Cap is an awesome product! I have used it successfully in deep restorations with pulp exposure and it has eliminated post-operative sensitivity in my composite restorations. Recently, I used Bio-Cap on a 15-year-old patient who was told he needed a root canal on a tooth that had very deep carious lesions. I was able to avoid the pulp and successfully restore his tooth.”
