We are part of the ¼ of 1% of dentists that practice Safe Mercury Removal. The journey to health in removing toxicities, may include the safe removal of mercury amalgam fillings. Biological dentistry is often done in concert with other health professionals and can involve toxicity. It also involves the use of biologically driven technologies such as lasers, Ozone, and air abrasion. It is closely aligned with Minimally Invasive Dentistry, where attempts are made to save as much healthy tooth and gum structure as possible. It involves the use of dental materials that are biocompatible. It understands the relationship between the two and uses this information to provide dental treatment that is in harmony with overall health.
See our article on Lasers by clicking here.īiological dentistry is a growing branch of dentistry that looks at the mouth and its structures as part of the whole body. It is a partner to Minimally Invasive Dentistry where small cavities can be restored in a timely fashion, preserving the future strength and health of a tooth for a lifetime.
This painless technology helps to look into a tooth to assess whether a tooth has decay and whether it needs to be restored or not. We also use the Diagnodent which is a Laser Cavity Detector. LLLT or Low Level Laser Therapy is a healing laser that stimulates the cells in the area of recent surgeries that helps to decrease pain and speed healing. The laser also can be used to drill a tooth is certain situations without the use of local anesthesia. Lasers also kill bacteria and can be used to treat bacterial events such as dental caries and infection. Surgical lasers are used to treat both hard and soft tissue, The tissue is happy to receive the energy and the remaining healthy tissue heals much faster with less pain. Lasers are just photons that are little packets of light that have wide ranging biologic effects.
