Step Up Your Dental Care with Holistic Dental Treatments
Heritage Dental believes dental care is more than just your teeth and gums. We believe in the oral systematic link, where dental issues can affect your overall well-being and vice versa. Our commitment to the mouth-body connection ensures you receive care that supports your dental and general health and promotes a higher quality of life.
If you are ready to try holistic dental care in Montgomeryville, Pennsylvania, we welcome you to schedule an appointment with Dr. Beth Skovron and the team. Our integrated approach treats the root cause of your dental issues to promote lasting solutions.
What are the principles of holistic dentistry?
Holistic dentists offer similar treatments and procedures to traditional dentists, but the approach differs. Since holistic dentistry understands the intimate relationship between oral and overall health, our approach is more comprehensive. We don’t just focus on the symptoms. We analyze your dental issues and treatments and how they affect your body as a whole.
The following are what makes holistic dentists different from conventional dentistry.
- Mercury-free dentistry: Holistic dentists avoid using mercury-containing amalgam fillings due to concerns about mercury’s potential health risks. While the mercury in amalgams is small, we can’t risk your health. We offer safe, mercury-free restorations to preserve your overall health. And if you already have mercury fillings, we provide safe mercury amalgam removal techniques to ensure your mouth is free from harmful substances.
- Biocompatible materials: We understand harmful materials’ impact on oral and overall health. We shun toxic materials like amalgams and metal restorations because they can cause adverse reactions or interfere with the body’s natural processes.
- Prevention: Biological dentistry focuses on prevention rather than treating symptoms as they arise. We emphasize nutritional counseling, stress management, good oral hygiene, regular cleanings, etc., to avoid dental issues rather than wait to treat them.
- Minimally invasive procedures: We understand nothing can quite beat your natural dentition. We preserve as much of the natural tooth structure as possible and avoid unnecessary procedures that could compromise your health.
Why does holistic dentistry matter?
In addition to routine treatments like cleanings and fillings, holistic dentists offer specialized treatments like mercury fillings removal. You are at an advantage if you opt for a holistic dentist. The following are the benefits of holistic dentistry.
- Conservative treatments.
- Treats the root cause of the problem.
- No use of unsafe or toxic materials.
- Understanding the oral-systematic link promotes overall body wellness.
- Alternative treatments encourage healing and prevent ongoing issues.
