FAQ

What makes holistic dentistry different from traditional dentistry?

Holistic dentistry takes a whole-body approach to dental care, considering how dental health impacts overall health. It uses safe and natural materials and techniques and avoids the use of toxic substances. Traditional dentistry focuses solely on the teeth and may use materials and procedures that could have negative effects on overall health.

What is the difference between a biocompatible and a non-biocompatible material?

Biocompatible materials are safe for use in the body and do not cause any adverse reactions. Non-biocompatible materials may contain harmful substances that could have negative effects on overall health.

Is fluoride safe?

Fluoride is a controversial topic in holistic dentistry. While some believe that fluoride is beneficial in preventing tooth decay, others are concerned about the potential health risks associated with its use. At Biohax Dental, we offer fluoride-free alternatives for our patients.

What is the purpose of ozone therapy in dental care?

Ozone therapy uses ozone gas to treat dental infections and gum disease. It is a safe and natural alternative to antibiotics and can promote overall dental health.

Is there a connection between dental health and overall health?

Yes, there is a strong connection between dental health and overall health. Poor dental health has been linked to a range of health issues, including heart disease, diabetes, and respiratory infections. By taking a whole-body approach to dental care, we can help improve both dental and overall health for our patients.

Do you take insurance?

At Biohax Dental, we prioritize your overall health and well-being above all else. We believe that dental insurance should not dictate the quality of care you receive. By not being in network with dental insurance companies, we are able to provide you with the best dental care possible, without any compromises. We are committed to working with you to create a personalized treatment plan that is tailored to your unique needs and goals, and we believe that this individualized approach to care is not always possible when working within the constraints of dental insurance.
