polymer systems for revolutionary medical and dental devices.

For 10 years, founder Dr. Kirk Kimmerling and a team of over 30 scientists and dental
researchers have brought FiteBac Technology to the forefront of Antimicrobial Dentistry.
Dedicated and passionate researchers have created built-in authority with dozens of scientific
publications providing the evidence and proof that lead to FiteBac’s composition of matter
antimicrobial patents, as well as FDA recognition of FiteBac’s lead molecules K18 and K21 in
cleared antimicrobial dental devices. This global FiteBac Project continues to include more
scientists from universities and industries throughout the world who are creating advanced
composites, coatings, textiles, and drug applications.
