Charlottesville patients ask, “Why do I need mercury-safe dentistry?”
The focus of biological dentistry extends beyond a patient’s smile and places great importance on their overall health or wellbeing. Biological dentists (also known as biologic or mecury-safe dentists) perform procedures using only non-toxic, biocompatible materials to help patient’s achieve a beautiful and healthy smile. Biological dentists work to identify dysfunction within the mouth, including periodontal disease and TMJ to limit the negative impact these can have on a patient’s entire body wellness.
Biological dentists will not immediately turn to the most aggressive approaches to address issues within the mouth. Any treatments that are done to the mouth are performed in the least invasive way to maintain the integrity of the mouth. Diagnostic procedures as well as treatments are performed with the patient in mind; they use mercury-safe fillings and steer clear of metal restorations and treatments that utilize toxic chemicals. Biological dentists also promote wellness through a variety of other avenues including nutritional information, preventative techniques, and alternative therapies.
Dr. Hart of Virginia Biological Dentistry provides biological dental care for all of the patients in her practice. She provides the safe removal of amalgam fillings, carefully following the protocols of the International Academy of Oral Medicine and Toxicology.
