Holistic Dentistry
Our holistic dentistry approach addresses oral health as a reflection of systemic wellness. Using mercury-free materials and root-cause diagnostics, we treat conditions like gum disease and cavitations while prioritizing biocompatibility. Patients benefit from reduced toxicity exposure and treatments that support long-term vitality through nutritional guidance and functional medicine integration.
Safe Amalgam Removal
We specialize in IAOMT-protocol mercury amalgam removal to minimize patient and staff exposure. Using protective barriers, high-volume suction, and ozone therapy, we safely replace toxic fillings with biocompatible composites. This process reduces neurological risks while restoring tooth integrity through minimally invasive techniques.
Dental Cavitation Treatment
Our team diagnoses jawbone cavitations using 3D imaging to identify areas of necrotic tissue. Treatment involves surgical debridement with ozone therapy and platelet-rich plasma to stimulate healing. This addresses chronic inflammation linked to systemic conditions like fatigue and autoimmune disorders while preventing further bone deterioration.
Biological Wisdom Tooth Removal
We perform minimally traumatic wisdom tooth extractions using ozone therapy and PRF to optimize healing. This approach prevents post-operative infections while preserving bone structure. Patients receive personalized recovery plans incorporating nutritional support to enhance systemic healing following surgical removal.
TMJ Therapy
Our TMJ treatment combines occlusal analysis with musculoskeletal diagnostics to address temporomandibular joint dysfunction. Custom oral appliances and physical therapy techniques alleviate chronic pain while correcting bite imbalances. This comprehensive approach resolves symptoms like headaches and ear ringing through non-invasive, long-term solutions.
