Holistic/Biological Dentistry

Your teeth are directly connected to every function, organ, tissue, and cell in your body. This connection is proven in the principles of biology and biochemistry, but also by less-known "€œsuperhighways," called Energy Meridians. These Meridians affect all major body systems including your immune, nervous, endocrine, circulatory, respiratory, digestive, skeletal, muscular, and lymphatic systems.

What is holistic dentistry?

Holistic dentistry, which is also referred to as biological dentistry, involves using only materials and procedures compatible with overall health and wellbeing as related to these body systems.

We focus on natural products and therapies, which work along with the biological makeup of the body. These ideals are at the forefront when we are developing holistic dentistry services. We invite area residents to the Cleveland Center for Integrative Dentistry in Mayfield Village, OH, to experience such patient-focused care.

How do your services differ from more traditional dental providers?

With all the outside stressors and effects on body systems, we carefully choose and plan our services. Our goal is for a patient to only come in contact with nontoxic materials during dental care. For example, CCID uses metal-free restorations. We believe that research has shown that these materials produce fewer reactions and ease of integration for patients. This is also why we utilize alternative materials in place of amalgam for fillings, and ceramic for permanent dental implants rather than the more traditional titanium. We work to develop a customized list of recommended materials for each patient to alleviate possible allergies and improve positive outcomes. We also perform standard dental procedures using methods we believe contribute to protecting the patient's€™ health. Ozone therapy and laser therapy are just two of the beneficial services which we have integrated into procedures. Our methodology includes minimal invasiveness and the elimination of more harmful bacteria from the oral environment.

In order to better serve you, we offer many unique aspects of professional dental care. In line with the holistic principles of whole-body wellness, we educate in aspects of nutrition and lifestyle. We also provide access to such informative resources in our office. By helping you understand the role that things such as diet and environment play in overall health, we believe that we can contribute significantly to improved and happier lives.
