Holistic Dentistry

Holistic Dentistry Centered Around Your Whole-Body Health

Your oral health is deeply connected to your overall health — which is why holistic dentistry focuses on more than just teeth. At Modern Dental, we look at the bigger picture: your airway, your lifestyle, your long-term wellness, and how dental care impacts your entire body.

Holistic dentistry isn’t alternative. It’s modern, mindful, and centered around helping you feel your best — safely and naturally.

What Is Holistic Dentistry?

Holistic dentistry (also called biological dentistry) emphasizes biocompatibility, prevention, whole-body wellness, and dental choices that support long-term health. It’s ideal for patients who want safe materials, modern alternatives, and a more thoughtful approach to care.

At Modern Dental, this means:

  • Using biocompatible, BPA-free, non-metal filling materials
  • Offering hydroxyapatite toothpaste alternatives
  • Avoiding unnecessary chemicals when possible
  • Considering your airway, sleep, bite, and overall wellness
  • Looking for root causes — not just symptoms
  • Using PRF for healing to support your body naturally
  • Practicing safe, gentle, modern techniques

You’ll receive dentistry that feels intentional, transparent, and aligned with your health values.

When your mouth is healthy, the rest of your body benefits.

Holistic Dentistry FAQs

What makes holistic dentistry different from traditional dentistry?

Holistic dentistry considers the entire body — not just the teeth — when planning treatment. While we provide all the same high-quality dental services, we place extra focus on biocompatible materials, airway health, sleep, inflammation, and long-term wellness. It’s a more thoughtful, personalized approach designed to support your overall health, not just your smile.

Are your filling materials BPA-free and metal-free?

Yes. Every filling we place is made from BPA-free, metal-free, biocompatible composite. These modern materials look natural, bond beautifully to your tooth, and support long-term health.

Does holistic dentistry mean alternative or unscientific?

Not at all. Our approach is science-based, modern, and supported by advanced technology like CBCT imaging, digital scanners, and PRF healing. Holistic dentistry simply means we look at how oral health impacts your sleep, your airway, your inflammation levels, and your overall well-being — because they’re all connected.

Do you use fluoride? What if I prefer fluoride-free options?

We respect your preferences. We offer both fluoride and fluoride-free hydroxyapatite options, which strengthen enamel naturally and are safe for patients who prefer a more holistic path. You’ll always get to choose the approach that feels right for you.

Can you replace old metal (amalgam) fillings?

If you’d like to replace old metal fillings, we use safe, gentle techniques to minimize exposure and protect the surrounding teeth. While we never recommend unnecessary treatment, we support your decision and will help you choose the right timing and approach for replacement.
