Cornelius patients benefit from good holistic dentistry
If you are like most people, you are careful as to what you and your family consume. You would never think about eating something that is toxic or could have a negative impact or your health. This is an important element in the philosophy behind holistic dentistry. Just like you would never let your child chew on a toy covered in mercury, holistic dentists such as Dr. Carl McMillan would never consider placing a silver amalgam (mercury) filling in your mouth for you to chew your food with. In fact, here at the Holistic Dental Centers of Cary and Cornelius we will never perform any procedure we believe endangers the health of our patients.
What is holistic dentistry?
This is a common question, and the simple answer is dental care that can fix problems without causing harm to the body. Some people think that a holistic dentist simply does not place mercury fillings and removes ones that are already there. Many dentists do not place mercury filling and some remove existing fillings. The procedure a dentist uses to remove mercury fillings determines if they are indeed MERCURY SAFE. We use a very strict protocol when removing mercury fillings; this is an important part of what we do. Your health is our top priority, so we have established a relationship with local physicians who can provide vitamin C via an IV, which helps improve your cellular health. While removing the filling we use large amounts of water, negative ion generators, air filtration, and high-volume evacuation, to list part of what we do to keep you safe while removing this toxin from your mouth. Other aspects of what we do to keep you healthy include:
- All materials we place in your mouth are biocompatible.
- We do not place metal restorations.
- We are concerned with your overall health, not just that of your mouth, because the health of your mouth impacts the health of your body and vice versa. We work to treat the cause of your problem, not just the symptoms.
- One thing that really sets us apart from other dentists is our patients are always in control of their dental care. We will explain your options so you can make informed choices regarding your dental care.
If you are looking for a dentist who sees more than just your teeth and gums, look no further than Holistic Dental Centers. You are in good hands with Dr. McMillan. You can schedule your appointment by calling the Cary office at (919) 865-0700 or the Cornelius office at (704) 765-3150 .
