About - Biological Dentistry

Why biological dentistry?

An unrelenting focus on patient health and personalized dentistry…

After suffering from an occupational episode of acute mercury poisoning, Dr. Trino found himself in a vulnerable and frightening situation. He faced potentially not being able to provide for his family and service his debts. The symptoms were severe enough as to jeopardize his career as a dentist. These symptoms included trembling hands, brain fog, difficulty focusing, short-term memory loss, and an overall sense of malaise and irritability. Fortunately, his wife Kelly, had the intuition to help him make the connection between the mercury-amalgams and the nervous-system issues he was experiencing.

Within a short-period of time, Dr. Nuño became certified to properly remove mercury-amalgams using the S.M.A.R.T. protocol. After learning about the toxicity of products in the dental industry, he immediately stopped applying fluoride varnish on his patients. He started on his journey to becoming the go-to biological dentist in Nebraska and surrounding states.

What started as an abysmally negative situation quickly turned into a fierce passion to evolve the way dentistry is viewed and performed.

At the forefront of my understanding was that I know nothing, and the answers would be discovered by studying nature. Nature knows best. Our body has the innate ability to remineralize its teeth and heal, and we must abide by the Laws of Nature. – Dr. Trino Nuño

Since that day in 2017, Dr. Nuño has been building a biological dental practice with like-minded colleagues. The practice, MiBöca Dentistry, endeavors to help patients love coming to the dentist. Together, our dentists and hygienists are helping our patients understand nutrition, airway & sleep disordered breathing, osteonecrosis of the jaw (cavitations), oral microbiome, lip and tongue ties, and the importance of choosing better materials that minimize immunoactivity.

Dental Materials

Dr. Nuño is committed to finding the most biologically mimetic materials. He uses tooth-colored restorations that include composites and ceramics (zirconium, porcelain, Lithium disilicate). He is the only general dentist in Nebraska that places zirconium – oxide dental implants. These implants are beautiful, osseointegrate well, and provide an excellent solution for esthetics.

Minimize toxicity

We’ve put so much thought into the materials we use. Dr. Nuño safely removes Mercury-Amalgam fillings. We do not use topical fluoride. Even our prophy pastes are free from SLS, dyes, fluoride, and other contaminates. We are constantly researching and developing new protocols to improve our services to you.

Ozone

Dr. Nuño utilizes ozone in many different mediums to help improve dental outcomes. Ozone has three oxygen atoms. Its highly oxidative and reactive state is perfect to safely destroy bacteria, fungi, parasites, and viruses. It also helps upregulate healing, decreases pain, and improves your mitochondria. Dr. Nuño uses it to reduce the incidence of needing a root canal therapy, and during most of his surgical procedures.

Oral Microbiome

If your dentist is still stuck on germ-theory it might be time to move on. There is mounting evidence that supports the idea that there is a complex and vital ecosystem of bacteria, fungi, and other micro-organisms which helps us thrive. In the mouth this is called the oral microbiome. A well-balanced microbiome will eliminate bad breath, remineralize teeth, keep your gums healthy, and reduce your risk for many system diseases (diabetes/cardiovascular). For this reason (and many more), Dr. Nuño no longer recommends harsh chemicals that destroy the microbiome.

Technology

Our technology allows us to take dentistry into the next Age. We are able to offer pain-free dentistry with our CO2 and diode lasers. We offer a 3D dentistry workflow for faster and more accurate results. From our 3D cone beam CT scanner to our digital intra-oral scanner we can accomplish amazing things. Dr. Nuño and colleagues value investing in our education and technology, which means that you will get the best evidence-based dentistry in the Omaha area.

Nutrition

Food is one of the most polarizing and confusing topics for our society. Dr. Nuño studied the work of Dr. Weston A. Price, and has continued to add to his knowledge base from a wide-range of studies and nutritional protocols. He is committed to meeting you where you are at with nutrition and helping you fill in any gaps in nutrients. Commonly vitamin D3, K2 and other micronutrients are deficient. He helps you connect with providers to evaluate “leaky” gut and to perform a thorough evaluation of your needs.

Hi there! I’m grateful you’re here, and hope to meet you soon.

I founded MiBöca Dentistry with the vision that I could help every patient become the CEO of their own health.

I’m the son of hard-working parents that immigrated from Mexico to the United States in the 1970’s. My upbringing played a critical role in my deep passion for entrepreneurship, free market capitalism, freedom, and individual responsibility. I’m forever grateful for all who had an impact, either negative or positive, in my life.

I call Fremont, Nebraska my hometown, but I’m currently living in Gretna. My early morning drive to my two practice locations (Elkhorn & Ralston) is spent listening to macro-economics from a British man! As a result, you might hear me in the office practicing my British accent (it’s quite awful at the moment, isn’t it?). My staff will often join in on the fun, and you’d think you were in the middle of Manchester. Needless to say, we have fun and create lasting friendships and partnerships with our patients, regardless of age.

I’m proud to be one of the few natural-minded dentists serving the greater Midwest. I founded MiBöca Dentistry to completely disrupt the monotony of drill and fill dentistry and evolve into a whole-body health model for wellness. At MiBöca we have a caring team of dentists, hygienists, and auxiliary people that are uniting and creating the most comprehensive and advanced practice in the Midwest. We’re doing this for you and our future generations.

I enjoy surgery. I place zirconia implants and can perform most surgical procedures, a unique trait among my peers. I’m certified in the use of a highly efficient CO2 laser, which has hundreds of applications from biopsies to gentle tooth desensitization. In the last year, I’ve developed a thorough process (patent & trademark pending) for extracting teeth to prevent osteomyelitis (dry socket) and osseonecrosis of the jaw (cavitations).

I perform most general dentistry procedures and all-ceramic restorations, including complex full-mouth rehabilitation. I educate on the benefits of a healthy lifestyle, and am certified through the IAOMT to safely remove mercury fillings to help patients like you achieve optimal health.

WHEN I’M NOT PRACTICING DENTISTRY

You’ll find me out in nature with my wife and four kids (almost 5), learning about regenerative agriculture/permaculture, studying dentistry and macro-economics, and investing in real estate.

I absolutely hate going to the dentist, but MiBöca eased my anxiety. Dr. Nuno is absolutely the best! He talks to you, he explains exactly what he is going to do, and he generally truly cares for his patients. All of his staff is wonderful and super nice. My sister recommended this dentist to me and I absolutely love it! I will keep coming back.

Heather C., Patient
Top notch service. I live in San Antonio, TX, and am willing to travel to Omaha just to have Trino work on MiBoca. There’s no one I trust more than him. You will not regret it. Ever.

David T., Patient
Prior to my appointment with Dr. Nuno, I have never had a positive experience with a dentist and have had a history of impaired healing. I was very nervous about the assessment and the proposed procedure to fill a cavity and remove a tooth and old amalgam. My fears were totally unwarranted. Dr. Nuno and his staff could not have been more kind. They took the time to provide adequate explanation and answer all of my questions. I so appreciate how they incorporated ozone injections during the procedure which was absolutely imperative in managing my inflammation and discomfort while expediting the healing process. I am thankful for their expertise and highly recommend them to anyone needing dental care!

Toni W., Patient
I have been to a lot of dentists and Dr. Trino has been the most caring, knowledgeable and gentle dentist. The entire staff are very nice and accommodating. The dental hygienist is so sweet and cleaned better than I have ever had. I came into the office with a poor situation from another dentist and Dr. Trino jumped right in willing to help going above and beyond. High quality dentist. So worth it!

Brit B., Patient
I found Dr. Nuno in 2019 when I needed to have my silver/mercury amalgam fillings removed and replaced. I was impressed with his views on oral health and its effects on overall health. He ensured the new fillings were shaped properly and without rough surfaces and noticeable edges. The staff is always cheerful, friendly, and courteous. My family members are now clients of MiBöca.

Darrell A., Patient
MiBöca Dentistry is the real deal! I have been on the search for a naturally minded dentist office for 2 years. Dr. Trino was so impressive to me. Genuine, kind, funny and knowledgeable about biological dentistry and biological medicine in general. Understanding fully that the body and teeth are intimately connected and treating it all as one system gets the best results. I had him remove my mercury filling and he did a seamless and painless job. He also kept me entertained and smiling with his gregarious and fun personality! The whole staff was kind and caring! By the end of the appointment I felt like I had known them for years. So happy to have found them!
