What is holistic dentistry?
Holistic dentistry, also called biological dentistry, biocompatible dentistry, or alternative dentistry, is a type of dentistry that approaches oral care from a whole-body perspective. A holistic dentist treats oral problems by focusing on all aspects of your overall health including physical, emotional, and spiritual health.
What are the available holistic dentistry solutions?
- Safe amalgam removal: Mercury is a known neurotoxin. If you have amalgam fillings, A Smiling Heart Dentistry can safely remove and replace them with composite resin.
- Bis-GMA-free fillings: A Smiling Heart Dentistry uses proven, non-toxic materials without bisphenol A.
- PRF treatment: Platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) therapy uses your own blood to promote healing and tissue regeneration.
- Non-metal restorations: These prevent possible health risks linked to traditional metal materials.
- Ceramic implants: Durable, metal-free implants for those with allergies or sensitivities to metals.
- Neuromuscular treatment: This helps realign the jaw and alleviate TMJ or bite issues.
- TMJ treatment: Using DNA appliances to widen the arch and reposition the jaw comfortably.
Are there risks associated with holistic dentistry?
Holistic dentistry is generally safe and may even be considered safer than some traditional methods due to its full-body approach. However, it may not be ideal if:
- You have recurring tooth decay (many holistic dentists avoid fluoride).
- You have an infected tooth that a holistic dentist would extract instead of saving via root canal.
- You take prescriptions that might interact with herbal remedies.
