What is Holistic Dentistry?
In holistic dentistry, the mouth is viewed as an integral part of the digestive tract, which is crucial to overall health. A holistic dentistry practitioner takes time to educate patients on key nutrients for systemic and emotional health, the importance of restful oxygenated sleep and proper digestion, and the dangers of infected teeth and gum inflammation. Specialized technology is used in holistic dentistry, such as PRF, ozone, lasers and CBCT imaging, to properly diagnose and manage disease. In addition, only biocompatible materials are used, as opposed to ‘tolerable’ ones such as BPA-free composites, zirconia, and no amalgam silver fillings.

Benefits of a Sauna Experience
A sauna is a small room that is heated to between 60-90*C. The purpose of the sauna is to heat up the body, the same way that your body would if you had a fever, helping your body heal itself! Heat decreases pain signals that reach your brain, reducing any pain or discomfort and increases the flow of oxygen to muscles helping heal damaged tissues. Heat also allows your body to sweat out any toxins that have built up in the body. Saunas are also face-friendly, they assist in relaxing face muscles, aid in clearer complexion, and help remove dirt and oil. One sauna session increases the amount of oxygen and nutrients delivered to your organs, especially your skin!

Homeopathic medicine considers the whole person, including an individual’s physical, emotional, and mental state. It involves tailored therapies that use small, diluted amounts of plants and minerals, operating with the principle of ‘treating like with like’. For example, someone with ADHD may be given something that mimics the symptoms of hyperactivity to help curb the ADHD symptoms.
