Bioesthetic™ Dentistry was developed by Robert L. Lee, MS, DDS, culminating from his concept of biologic occlusion. He defined Bioesthetics^® as "the study or theory of the beauty of living things in their natural forms and functions“. After its beginnings as the Lee Institute, our organization was transitioned several times and finally became the non-profit education institution (501.3C) named OBI Foundation for Bioesthetic™ Dentistry in 2005. Since then, OBI teaches the biology and clinical practice of Bioesthetic™ Dentistry to dentists, dental technicians, and team members. Officers of the Foundation are elected yearly, and the Foundation’s structure was chosen to perpetuate the teaching of Bioesthetic™ Dentistry. Learn more about the leading personalities with a great impact on the Foundation and its development!
