Did you know that your dental health is often the gateway for other systemic health concerns like diabetes or heart disease? Working with dentists who understand the oral-systemic connection helps you take charge of your health. 

Holistic dentistry is a whole-body approach to dental care, considering oral health and overall well-being are closely related. At Cameron Village Dentistry, our dentists combine holistic and general dentistry when caring for patients, providing helpful services you may not find at other dental practices. Here's what you should know.  

Holistic Dental Services at Cameron Village Dentistry

Some of the dental services we offer at Cameron Village Dentistry using our holistic approach are:

  • Saliva testing — This allows us to test saliva to determine which bacteria are causing your unique condition. We can then craft customized treatments that return your mouth to a healthy biome. 
  • Biocompatibility testing — This allows us to determine the suitable restorative materials for your smile, overall health, and well-being, considering your unique sensitivities and immune system. 
  • SMART-safe mercury removal—Metal fillings containing mercury are toxic for some patients. SMART is a technique for safely removing and replacing metal fillings with better, more biocompatible materials. 
  • Ozone therapy — Combines ozone air and water to eliminate oral bacteria contributing to tooth decay, gum disease, and other systemic concerns. 
  • Platelet-rich fibrin therapy (PRF) — Using your blood, PRF extracts and uses growth factors that promote faster healing and tissue regeneration, which promotes treatment success.
