Holistic dentistry combines dentistry with science, medicine and natural health philosophies designed to support your health and wellbeing.
Dr Rachel Hall of Evolve Dental Brisbane uncovers what holistic dentistry is and why it’s important to your health and wellbeing.
Our aim is to provide you with the best dental care in the most natural way possible.
Holistic dentists choose to work the way they do because they have a deeper understanding and care for the human body that extends beyond tooth decay and dental disease.
We really want to get to the underlying issues as to why people get cavities and gum health problems and from there we focus on nutrition, wellbeing, lifestyle and stress management. These are tools that we can share with our patients to help them have great oral health for life.
Dentistry the holistic way always attempts to deal with underlying issues and causes of illness and disease. We want to address our patient’s nutritional status and wellbeing and support them to have optimal health.
One of the ways in which we do this is to ensure that the materials and products that we are using in our patient’s teeth every day are not going to be toxic or detrimental to their health and wellbeing.
Because of this holistic dentists choose not to use dental amalgam or fluoride treatments for their patients and will always choose a more natural product where available.
Dental amalgams contain high levels of mercury and are considered toxic to health.
We also avoid harsh chemicals and products that contain BPA.
And some holistic dentists will not do root canal fillings because of the issues that surround these and your health and safety.
In our practice, we ensure you the best standard of care and quality materials that are in line with our holistic dental philosophy.
