Why is it important to see a holistic dentist in the Raleigh, NC area?
A holistic dentist is a dentist who cares not only about a patient’s smile, but their overall health and wellbeing. Holistic dentists are also known as biologic dentists or mercury-free dentists. These professionals focus on the use of non-toxic, biocompatible materials when addressing infections, improving imperfections, and working to achieve a more beautiful, healthy smile. A holistic dentist focuses on identifying periodontal disease and dysfunction of the mouth, including TMJ, to reduce the negative impact these have on a patient’s health.
A holistic dentist doesn’t always focus on the most aggressive approaches when it comes to addressing problems within the mouth. Instead, everything done to the mouth is gentle, biocompatible, and the least invasive as possible to maintain the health and integrity of the mouth. Diagnostics and treatment are done with the patient in mind, and they work to ensure they do not use mercury fillings, metal restorations, and toxic, chemically-laden treatments. They may provide nutritional information, preventative therapies, and therapies for TMJ/TMD and sleep apnea.
