Holistic Dentistry
Our holistic approach treats oral health as integral to whole-body wellness. We use non-toxic materials and biocompatible techniques to support natural healing processes. Services include mercury-free fillings, ozone therapy, and integrative treatments that consider systemic health impacts. This patient-centered approach emphasizes preventive care and minimally invasive procedures.
Amalgam Removal
We specialize in safe mercury amalgam removal using IAOMT-certified SMART protocols. Our process includes air filtration systems, protective barriers, and biocompatible replacement materials. We prioritize patient safety through controlled removal techniques that minimize mercury vapor exposure during treatment.
Zirconia Implants
Offering metal-free zirconia dental implants that integrate naturally with jawbone tissue. These biocompatible implants provide durable tooth replacement solutions with aesthetic benefits. The non-corrosive material resists plaque buildup while maintaining natural-looking gum contours.
TMJ Treatment
Our integrated TMJ treatment combines dental and physical therapy approaches. We address temporomandibular disorders through custom appliances, bite adjustments, and airway-focused therapies. Treatment plans target both symptom relief and underlying causes like sleep breathing disorders.
Sleep Apnea Therapy
We provide oral appliance therapy for sleep-related breathing disorders. Custom-fitted devices reposition jaw structures to maintain open airways during sleep. Our approach addresses both immediate symptoms and developmental factors contributing to obstructive sleep apnea.
