Biological Holistic Dentistry
Holistic dentistry, also known as biological or natural dentistry, is an alternative approach to traditional dentistry. It is the connection between oral health and overall health by considering the whole person, not just their teeth and gums. Holistic dentists focus on using non-toxic materials and procedures that are minimally invasive, such as avoiding mercury amalgam fillings and root canals, and promoting the use of natural remedies and nutrition to prevent and treat oral health problems.
Safe amalgam removal is the process of safely and effectively removing old dental fillings that contain mercury. This process is carried out under strict safety protocols and specialised equipment to prevent exposure of the patient, dentist and staff to mercury vapor generated during the process.
