A biological, natural or holistic dentist operates according to the belief system that oral health is fundamentally connected to overall health and well-being. They understand the fundamental mouth-body relationship and recognize that problems of the mouth can, and often do, affect other areas of the body.
There are so many different reasons to choose a biological dentist. Biological dentists use a whole person, science-based approach to treat the root cause of the problem and not just the symptoms that manifest in the mouth. For example, biological dentists are educated in how oral infections can spread to other parts of the body, how mercury and other toxic dental materials can harm us and how a misaligned bite can account for health problems such as insomnia, headaches, ear aches, poor posture and joint pain.
Biological dentists are committed to using safe, durable, non-toxic bio-compatible dental materials and strictly oppose the use of amalgam, or mercury fillings. They are advocates for minimally invasive dentistry and aim to preserve as much of the natural tooth structure and surrounding tissue as possible.
They offer various minimally invasive dental technologies to restore teeth to their optimal condition such as air abrasion, ozone therapy, laser therapy, CAD/CAM/CEREC and low radiation digital X-rays.
Perhaps one of the biggest differences you will notice at a biological dental office is the individualized, whole person approach to care. Every patient is different and needs to be treated according to their specific needs. In addition to returning your teeth to optimal health, they will consider your overall nutrition, toxicity levels, detoxification and cleansing opportunities as well as the elimination of harmful habits. Their mission is to treat and restore the natural health of your mouth while working in harmony with your entire body. The days of “one size fits all” dentistry are on the way out.
Until recently, dentistry rarely considered the impact of a patient’s oral health on their physical health. However, we now know there is a relationship between gum (periodontal) disease and health complications such as a stroke and heart disease. Research shows that more than 90% of all systemic diseases (diseases involving many organs or the whole body) have oral manifestations, including swollen gums, mouth ulcers, dry mouth and gum problems. And this is just the tip of the iceberg! Since most people have regular oral examinations, their dentist may be the first health care provider to diagnose a health problem in its early stages.
Dr. Reinhard Voll, a German physician, who studied the relationship between oral and physical health for over 40 years, estimated that 80% of human disease was related either directly or indirectly to the oral cavity.
At Integrative Dental Solutions, Milwaukee’s premier Biological dentist, we understand the mouth is only one part of the puzzle. After the teeth are returned to optimal health, the process of returning to physical optimal health continues. Detoxification, cleansing, proper nutrition, as well as elimination of harmful habits, all play an equally important and long-term role in achieving the healthier body you are seeking. This is what biological dentistry is all about. And it is our goal to assist you in this quest.
