A day with Dr Pascal Magne: Creating natural aesthetic dentistry

Dr Pascal Magne is currently the Director of the Center for Education and Research in Biomimetic Restorative Dentistry (CER BRD) in Beverly Hills. In 1989, he became lecturer at the Geneva School of Dental Medicine, while practicing and receiving training in fixed prosthodontics. He pursued two doctorates, in 1992 (DMD) and in 2002 (Ph.D.), the latter while co-authoring the book Bonded Porcelain Restorations in the Anterior Dentition--A Biomimetic Approach, with Professor Urs Belser (translated into 12 languages). He would add to his research on dental innovations at the University of Minnesota School of Dentistry in 1997-1999. He has been widely published, resulting in many awards.

Pascal was recruited as a full-time tenured faculty of the Herman Ostrow School of Dentistry at the University of Southern California School in 2004, as the Don and Sybil Harrington Professor of Esthetic Dentistry. At USC, Dr Magne spearheaded a multitude of curricular innovations in the areas of biomimetics, minimally invasive dentistry, and bonding techniques.

His scholarly activity during his years there yielded over 100 peer-reviewed publications and many continuing education programs nationally and internationally. In 2021, Dr Magne published the second edition of his bestselling book entitled Biomimetic Restorative Dentistry.
