Holistic Dentistry

Holistic dentistry is a natural approach to dental care that uses natural remedies alongside traditional dentistry treatments and techniques to take care of a patient's oral health. Dentists who practice holistic dentistry believe there is a tie between a person's dental health and their overall health, so they'll take into account your entire health history in order to provide more accurate and efficient oral care that helps keep your entire body feeling and functioning well. Holistic dentistry can help prevent ailments like heart disease, diabetes, and stroke.

Did you know that 91% of people with heart disease also have periodontitis? Natural dentistry can help you achieve and maintain optimal oral health and improve your overall well-being, so you can be a happier, healthier you.

What Does Holistic Dentistry Involve?

In addition to brushing and flossing at home and regular trips to the dentist for cleanings and exams, your dentist may provide nutritional advice, recommend herbs to treat dental diseases, homeopathy, and other natural dentistry treatments.

If you have a cavity, rather than using amalgam fillings that contain a heavy amount of mercury, your dentist will use mercury-free, non-toxic compositive fillings which are better for your health.

Your dentist will also likely use medically administered ozone therapy, a minimally invasive treatment administered through ozone-infused water or gas that has been used to treat issues such as dental infections, allergies, joint disorders, and many other conditions. Ozone is a natural disinfectant that creates a burst of oxygen, which kills viruses and bacteria. This also encourages healthy cell growth, removes decay and infection, promotes faster healing, and provides longer-lasting results.

Ozone therapy can be used in a wide range of dental procedures from preventive to restorative care. Some of the most common reasons for ozone dental treatments include:

•     Tooth Infection: Ozone can eliminate bacteria that causes tooth decay and infection. It can target hard-to-reach areas and remove or reverse cavities and decay.
•     Gum Disease: Ozone flushes out and kills harmful bacteria in the gum line before it reaches the gum tissue.
•     Root Canal Therapy: During root canal therapy, ozone-infused water is used to rinse the inside of the infected tooth to eliminate bacteria and stimulate healing.
•     Tooth Sensitivity: Ozone can significantly reduce tooth sensitivity and pain.
