What Is Holistic Dentistry?

Holistic dentistry provides a healthier alternative to traditional dentistry by using more natural and toxin-free materials and techniques. We help you achieve optimal oral health not just by treating teeth and gums but by addressing the patient’s mental, emotional, physical, and overall health state. Holistic dentistry goes by many names, and you may see it referred to as:

–       Biological dentistry

–       Natural dentistry

–       Integrative dentistry

–       Biocompatible dentistry

Healthy Alternatives

One of the most significant benefits of holistic healing in dentistry is the elimination of harmful metals that eventually cause more issues than they do solutions in the long term. Therefore, our practice is entirely metal-free and uses zirconia for implants to replace toxic chemical composites that have long been the standard.

A holistic dentistry experience may involve any combination of the following: 

–       Mercury-free fillings 

–       Safe amalgam removal

–       Zirconia dental implants

–       Prevention of gum disease with non-surgical methods

–       Fluoride-free oral care 

–       Ozone treatments to kill bacteria and promote healing

–       Aromatherapy and natural techniques for relaxation 

–       Nutritional counseling

When choosing the best treatment plan for patients, we strive to create a holistic, natural experience. Holistic dentistry avoids harmful chemicals and metals and offers natural solutions to oral issues before they become severe. 

We use zirconia implants, or ceramic implants are recommended to avoid introducing harmful materials into your body. Transitioning to holistic dentistry involves natural treatments and thorough education on oral health and its effects on the body. 

Natural Treatment Plans

Holistic dentists opt for biocompatible BPA-free materials to alleviate oral issues. We use alternative techniques and materials  and avoid plastic and metals in our practice. Your oral health can be maintained with toxin-free materials and products such as herbal mouthwashes and herbal toothpaste without fluoride. 

Holistic dentists use healing practices combined with conventional medicine to approach dentistry with the patient’s whole health in mind. 

The holistic dentist assesses materials traditionally used in the procedures. For example, chemical composites such as BPA are restricted due to their effects on the overall health of our patients. BPA is a chemical used to make plastics and resins that can leak chemicals into food when heated. By choosing a holistic practice, you can rest assured our tools and materials are holistic, metal-free, and toxin-free. No chemicals like BPA will be present during your cleaning or dental treatment.  

Holistic Health Education

Knowledge is essential in reducing gum disease and improving oral hygiene. Oral health is not separate from overall health: oral health affects all areas of the body. 

Improve your oral hygiene to combat harmful bacteria that can start in the mouth and spread to other areas in the body. Understanding how your oral health and the rest of your body are interconnected can help prevent serious health issues. We share our knowledge of holistic therapies and work with our patients to improve their oral health and nutrition.
