Safe Amalgam Removal
Our SMART-certified protocol ensures safe removal of mercury-containing amalgam fillings using advanced isolation, filtration, and protective measures. We replace them with biocompatible materials to reduce systemic toxicity risks while preserving dental integrity. Patients benefit from reduced mercury exposure linked to improved overall health outcomes.
Biological Dentistry
This approach connects oral health to systemic wellness through biocompatibility testing, non-toxic materials, and root-cause analysis. We address conditions like periodontal disease and airway issues that impact heart health, diabetes, and immune function, offering personalized strategies for long-term wellness through oral-systemic integration.
Sleep Dentistry
Tailored sedation options, including oral sedation and nitrous oxide, help patients with dental anxiety receive care comfortably. This service ensures stress-free visits while maintaining safety and effectiveness, allowing comprehensive treatment for those who might otherwise avoid dental care due to fear or trauma.
Periodontal Services
Comprehensive periodontal care addresses gum disease through non-surgical scaling, root planing, and PRF grafting. We focus on reversing inflammation linked to systemic conditions like heart disease, using minimally invasive techniques to restore oral balance and prevent further health complications from untreated periodontal infections.
Children's Dentistry
Early intervention and trauma-free care build lifelong oral health habits. Services include preventive resins, tongue-tie releases, and zirconia crowns tailored to children's developmental needs. We emphasize education and gentle techniques to create positive dental experiences that prevent future anxiety and systemic health issues linked to childhood dental trauma.

Questions
What makes biological dentistry different from conventional dentistry?
Biological dentistry focuses on how oral health impacts whole-body wellness, using non-toxic materials, biocompatibility testing, and addressing root causes like mercury toxicity or airway issues rather than just treating symptoms.
Do you accept dental insurance?
We operate as an out-of-network provider to maintain treatment flexibility. Our team helps patients maximize insurance benefits through detailed claims submission while prioritizing personalized care over insurance limitations.
What happens during the new patient experience?
Expect 4-5 hours of comprehensive diagnostics including 3D imaging, salivary testing, and bioelectrical assessments across multiple appointments to create a personalized treatment plan addressing both dental and systemic health factors.
How do you handle dental emergencies?
We offer after-hours emergency care for urgent issues like severe pain or trauma. Patients receive prompt treatment with an on-call team, including antibiotics when needed, though non-critical concerns are scheduled during regular hours.
Are your mercury filling removals safe?
Yes—we follow SMART certification protocols with protective barriers, advanced filtration, and biocompatible replacements to minimize mercury exposure during removal, ensuring patient and staff safety throughout the process.
Can children receive care here?
