About Us

At Biomin Technologies Limited, we are pioneers in the development of advanced dental materials, dedicated to transforming oral health through science-led innovation. Originating from Queen Mary University of London, our company bridges the gap between academic discovery and real-world dental care solutions.

Our Vision

To become the global leader in the development of bioglass science and how those technologies are applied across dentistry, setting new standards in advanced preventive and restorative oral care.

Our Technology

Our products are based on patented bioactive glass technologies designed to:

  • Control the release of essential minerals at the tooth surface
  • Promote enhanced remineralisation of tooth enamel
  • Provide long-lasting protection against sensitivity and decay

This science-driven approach ensures superior performance compared to conventional oral care products.

Our Story

BioMin was founded to commercialise the research of Professor Robert Hill, a leading expert in bioglass development and its dental applications.

Our initial patents were filed in 2011 which innovatively incorporated the use of fluoride in a bioactive glass for oral healthcare, with subsequent patents granted in 2013 and 2021. Our products advance the level of protection against sensitivity and help remineralise the tooth surface.

Clinical trials have shown BioMin® F to be more effective at reducing dentine hypersensitivity than the market brand leaders Sensodyne Repair & Protect and Colgate Sensitivity Pro-Relief.

To date BioMin® toothpaste products are available in over 40 countries around the world, with significant business in the UK, Europe and Australia with a launch planned in the US. BioMin is also available as an ingredient for private label toothpaste manufacturers and through our partners we have developing businesses in India, South Africa and South America. There are also other applications either on the market or under development for use in Dental Varnishes, Adhesives and Composites.
