About

Holistic dentistry could be explained as "all things considered". The word holistic is of Greek origin meaning: "relating to whole". This approach involves far more than technique, it encompasses a total awareness relating to the physical, mental, and spiritual well being of the entire body. A holistic dentist is concerned about possible side effects to the rest of the body from every dental material used and every dental procedure performed. Patient education is very important in holistic dentistry and prevention is the best procedure to follow; therefore, the way to prevention is through education and awareness. Biological dentistry evaluates each patient as an individual who requires special needs based on his or her unique make-up. Biocompatibility is most important in choosing specific dental materials that appear best suited for each patient. At our Dental Clinic in St Louis, we believe that all patients, should be involved in the decision making process about what materials will be used.
