"Health Focused Dentistry"
Groton Dental Wellness Spa
To define it simply, Health Focused Dentistry means bringing a holistic philosophy to
the practice of dentistry. Health focused dentistry can also be referred to as
"holistic dentistry, biological dentistry, metal-free dentistry, toxic-free
dentistry, natural dentistry, etc.".
The goal of health focused dentistry is to harmonize a patient's dental wellness with
their overall physical wellbeing, through the use of non-toxic materials for dental work,
and by focusing on the unrecognized impact that dental toxins and hidden dental infections
can have on overall health. When toxicity is identified as being present in the oral
cavity, steps can be taken to rid the mouth of the toxin, and to help reestablish a state
of wellness.
Health focused dentistry takes into consideration how the treatment of the oral cavity
will affect the immune system and overall health of the individual. Detoxification and
support from other medical practitioners may be utilized to insure a successful treatment
outcome.
Health focused dentistry is not always conventional, but always strives to be
individually biocompatible. Practices such as electro-dermal screening, homeopathy,
nutritional and detoxification therapies, acupressure, and massage are all incorporated by
Dr. Evans and Dr. Nordin-Evans in an effort to individualize the treatment
recommendations.
Dr. Evans and Dr. Nordin-Evans strive to educate their patients which gives the patient
the ability to make informed and educated decisions about all aspects of their dental
care.
Above all, health focused dentistry emphasizes the need for prevention over
intervention.
