3 Ways Holistic Dentists Protect Your Overall Health

Are you looking for dental care that incorporates your overall well being? Here’s how visiting a holistic dentist can benefit your total health.

Oral health is key to your general well-being at every stage of your life. A healthy mouth not only enables adequate nutrition of the body, but it also promotes your self-esteem and feelings of happiness.  

In addition to that, poor oral health can negatively impact your general health and can increase your risk of:

• Infertility
• Cardiovascular disease
• Pregnancy complications
• Cancer
• Rheumatoid Arthritis

Holistic dentists understand this important connection and truly believe that your dental health is part of the bigger picture: that of whole body wellness.

How Does a Holistic Dentist Benefit Your Overall Health?

When you visit a holistic dentist for treatment, you can rest assured that their approach will take into account your oral health, as well as your overall well-being. While most traditional dental practices purely focus on the areas above your neck, a holistic dentist aims to look at how your lifestyle and treatment will affect your whole body.

Here are just some of the ways that visiting a holistic dentist can protect your overall health:

1. They Provide Comprehensive Dental Treatment

Holistic dentists understand just how much your general health, and health problems, are interconnected with your oral health, which is why we take into consideration your overall health when deciding which treatment is best for you. 

During your consultation, your holistic dentist may discuss your:  

• Lifestyle habits (diet, tobacco use, alcohol intake, etc.)
• Medical conditions
• Medications you are taking to manage any health issues

The holistic approach means that not only will we find a dental treatment that works for your whole body, but we’ll also work with you to improve your oral and overall health.

2. They Use Only The Safest Dental Materials

One of the main goals of holistic dentistry is to provide patients with effective oral treatment options that are least invasive and injurious to your oral and overall health. Some of the ways they do this includes using:

• The safest, most biocompatible materials
• Amalgam free and amalgam safe dental techniques to limit your exposure to toxic materials
• Digital x-rays which emit less radiation
• Fluoride free alternative treatments

At Dr. Korol Dental Clinic, we are a fully biocompatible dental practice. We always try to use the safest materials for your body and we are a mercury and fluoride-free clinic. In addition, we use BPA free dental filling materials to treat gum disease and infections.

3. They Promote Total Body Care

Because we understand just how deeply the body and mouth are connected, the holistic dental approach means that your dentist will always recommend ways for you to improve your general health.

In addition, we always keep in mind the impact our treatments have on patients’ overall health and make every effort to prevent any negative effects on your well being.
