Founder & Director
“Great dentists don’t just fill cavities — they understand why decay happens.”
Dr. Ryan Nolan founded the institute to teach a discipline he practices every day: assessing caries risk, reversing early disease, and treating decay as the biological problem it is — in partnership with the Alleman Center of Biomimetic Dentistry.
