What Is Holistic Dentistry?

Holistic dentistry, also called biological dentistry, treats your mouth as part of your whole body, not in isolation. Holistic dentists avoid materials known to be harmful (like mercury amalgam and high-concentration fluoride), use biocompatible restorations, and consider how dental health connects to systemic conditions like autoimmune disorders, cardiovascular health, and chronic inflammation.

At Rite Dentist, our approach combines the precision of modern dentistry with awareness of how every procedure affects your overall wellbeing. We follow IAOMT protocols for safe amalgam removal, use BPA-free composite restorations, and offer ozone therapy as a minimally invasive alternative to traditional treatments.

Why Sherman Oaks Patients Choose Rite Dentist

Truly Fluoride-Free

Many practices offer “fluoride-free as an option.” We built our entire protocol around it. Every cleaning, restoration, and preventive treatment at Rite Dentist is free from fluoride by default. No upselling, no pressure, no exceptions.

SMART-Certified Amalgam Removal

If you have old silver (mercury) fillings, our IAOMT SMART protocol removes them safely, with rubber dams, sectioned removal, high-volume evacuation, and activated charcoal rinses to minimize mercury vapor exposure during the procedure.

BPA-Free Biocompatible Materials

We use only BPA-free composites and metal-free ceramic restorations. Before major restorative work, we can discuss biocompatibility testing to identify materials that align with your body’s chemistry, an option unavailable at most conventional practices.

Same-Day Appointments Available

Finding a holistic dentist close to Sherman Oaks who also has availability can be a challenge. Rite Dentist offers same-day and next-day appointments for new patients. Call (818) 766-7776 or book online. We respond the same day.

What makes holistic dentistry different from conventional dentistry?
Holistic dentistry, also called biological dentistry, avoids materials with known toxicity risks (like mercury amalgam and fluoride), uses biocompatible alternatives, and considers how oral health affects overall systemic health. Holistic dentists also tend to use minimally invasive techniques and may incorporate therapies like ozone treatment as alternatives to traditional drilling.
Are your cleanings fluoride-free?
Yes. All cleanings at Rite Dentist are fluoride-free by default. We do not apply fluoride treatments, use fluoride-containing polishing pastes, or recommend fluoride supplements. Patients who prefer a specific fluoride-free protocol can discuss that with our hygienist at their first appointment.
Do you safely remove mercury amalgam fillings?
Yes. We follow the IAOMT SMART protocol: rubber dam, chunk removal, high-volume evacuation, and activated charcoal rinse to minimize mercury vapor inhalation. We replace amalgam with BPA-free composite or ceramic alternatives.
Do you accept dental insurance?
Rite Dentist is an out-of-network provider but accepts most PPO insurance plans. We can submit claims on your behalf and help you maximize your out-of-network benefits. For patients without insurance, we offer our RitePlan membership, which covers two annual cleanings, X-rays, and an exam with discounts on additional services.
What is an IAOMT member dentist?
The IAOMT is a scientific organization that researches links between dental materials and overall health. IAOMT member dentists commit to mercury-safe practices and evidence-based biological dentistry. Dr. Babrood is affiliated with the IAOMT and follows their protocols at Rite Dentist.
