How we set ourselves apart as true holistic dentists – for the health, safety of your smile and self
Posted By Dr. Nathan Pfister
TWe understand there are many dentists to choose from in our corner of the Wiregrass region. However, we congratulate you on taking big steps toward a healthier mouth and healthier self (for you and your family members) by considering a holistic dentist as your dental “home.”
So, how does a holistic provider like Biodentist Alabama differ from other dentists in Dothan and beyond?
In your search to find an authentic provider of holistic dental care, there are fundamental differences between these practitioners and other “general” dental offices. While many practices may say that they support both oral and systemic health (the health of the whole body), their actions may suggest otherwise.
Genuine holistic dentists like our own Dr. Nathan Pfister and Dr. Brian Pfister only use those products, services, and technologies that enhance the health and beauty of your smile and “system.” That means we avoid certain “conventional” dental materials and techniques, even if they have been used for centuries. There are, after all, lots of medical treatments that have fallen out of favor through the years and decades – and for good reason. A “treatment” should never pose additional risks to one’s health.
When considering the right provider or home for your family’s trusted and safe oral health needs, looking for the following capabilities and services is important. All of the following are available at Biodentist Alabama and distinguish us favorably from other dental offices that are not holistic or genuinely holistic in their approach:
Mercury-free – Do not place amalgam or “silver” fillings that contain the mercury toxin
Mercury-safe – Uphold protocols to safely remove amalgam fillings (in a way that minimizes mercury exposure)
Non-toxic, biocompatible, and attractive dental materials – Like “white” composite fillings and porcelain restorations
Root canal evaluations, second opinions, and biological alternatives to this therapy
Natural “healers,” such as ozone therapy
High-powered microscopy for bacterial evaluation (to support proactive care and conservative therapies)
Personalized dental care
Technologies such as laser dentistry, which ensure the utmost preservation of tissues and the most painless, targeted treatments
Biocompatibility testing before we introduce dental materials to your mouth – To avoid adverse reactions and sensitivities
Alternatives to dental fluoride for preventative dentistry services
Proactive remineralization of teeth using peptide therapies such as Curodont instead of reactive restorative treatments
Oral testing that provides insights into risk factors for systemic illnesses (certain high-risk pathogens are implicated in autoimmune disease)
Safe, radiation-free, and highly accurate diagnostics
Modern tooth replacement – Restorations supported by dental implants are designed like natural teeth for the highest patient satisfaction and long-term health!
We could go on and on about how we, as real holistic dentists, differ from other dental offices near us and much farther away. However, we encourage you to check us out for yourself!
