The mouth is the gateway into the rest of your body. There are microscopic living organisms in your mouth (predominantly bacteria, but also fungi, viruses, and sometimes even amoebas and parasites!). Your mouth is also one of many microenvironments in your body.
It’s a system, and when one part of the system breaks down it can cause problems for the others.

Biological dentistry is a philosophy of care that uses the safest, least toxic methods to treat dental problems conservatively in a way that promotes total health and wellness.​

Biological dentistry is also known as holistic dentistry. Biological dentistry is concerned with the whole body, not just the teeth and gums. Dental materials, techniques and procedures take total health into consideration.​ Biological dentistry focuses on a principle known as ‘the oral systemic link’.

The oral systemic link is actually many links that connect your oral health to your overall health. Recent research makes these findings more evident than ever. We believe our patients need to be aware of this systemic link and be empowered to make decisions for themselves.​
