What Is Wellness & Holistic Dentistry?

Wellness & holistic dentistry is an approach that looks at how your mouth, body, and lifestyle work together. Instead of focusing only on fixing problems, we explore possible root causes, such as diet, sleep, stress, or habits, and partner with you on practical, sustainable changes.

We still use proven, science-based dentistry, but with extra attention to how treatments may affect your comfort, immune system, and long-term health. You receive clear explanations, options, and support so you can make informed choices that align with your values.

• Whole-body assessments We consider medical history, medications, sleep, and stress when planning your care. Great for: patients seeking a more personalized approach.
• Conservative treatment planning We prioritize preserving natural tooth structure and avoiding unnecessary procedures.
• Focus on prevention Routine exams, gentle cleanings, and lifestyle guidance to reduce future problems.
• Collaboration with other providers When helpful, we can coordinate with your physician or wellness team.

Conservative, Biocompatible Treatment Options

Our wellness & holistic philosophy is reflected in the materials and techniques we use. We aim to choose options that are strong, long-lasting, and as kind as possible to your body. Your preferences and sensitivities are always part of the conversation.

If you have concerns about metals, previous restorations, or sensitivities, we will listen carefully and walk you through safe, thoughtful options for your situation.
