Biological Dentistry and Holistic Health at Clínica Debora Ayala
Have you heard about Biological Dentistry?
Traditionally, dentistry focused only on oral health, treating problems like cavities, root canals, and gum diseases without considering the overall physical health of the patient. However, research now shows that physical conditions such as poor nutrition and smoking significantly impact oral health. Moreover, poor oral health is linked to heart diseases, diabetes, Alzheimer’s, and pregnancy complications.
What is Biological Dentistry?
Biological Dentistry isn’t a specialization, but an innovative and comprehensive practice in dentistry. It emphasizes patient individuality, recognizes the connection between mouth and body, and uses a holistic approach to treat the root cause of problems rather than just the symptoms. We, biological dentists, understand how oral infections can spread to other body parts and how toxic dental materials can harm us. That misaligned bites can cause health issues like insomnia, headaches, earaches, poor posture, and joint pain. Thus, we consider both internal and external factors affecting oral health, using safe and biocompatible materials and minimally invasive techniques.
Individualized Diagnosis and Treatment
The major difference in a biological dental practice is the individualized approach to patient care. At Clínica Debora Ayala, each patient is treated according to their specific needs. Our professionals combine conventional dentistry techniques with natural therapies and advanced technologies. Here, we conduct comprehensive diagnoses to detect deep-rooted chronic problems, leading to personalized treatment strategies that enhance patients’ quality of life by addressing the root causes of dental issues.
Minimally Invasive Treatments
We, biological dentists, advocate for conservative, natural treatments and educate patients while using safe, biocompatible dental materials. We often use ceramic dental implants and advanced mercury removal protocols, understanding the direct and indirect connections between teeth and certain organs.
Concerns About Amalgam Fillings
There are risks associated with amalgam fillings, which contain mercury. Continuous exposure to mercury vapor from these fillings can lead to chronic mercury poisoning, affecting immune, psychological, and neurological health. Here at Clínica Debora Ayala, we abolish the use of mercury and perform safe procedures for removing patients’ existing amalgam fillings.
Why Choose a Biological Dentist?
Biological dentists recognize the connection between oral health and overall health, focusing on non-toxic, safe materials, and minimally invasive, natural treatments. They use non-surgical methods for treating gum diseases, aiming for holistic well-being and preventing potential health issues linked to dental problems.
The Importance of Oral Health in Preventing Systemic Diseases
The connection between oral health and systemic health is a fundamental aspect of Biological Dentistry. Studies show a direct relationship between oral diseases, such as periodontitis, and systemic conditions, including heart diseases, diabetes, Alzheimer’s, and pregnancy complications. The chronic inflammation caused by dental infections can trigger inflammatory responses throughout the body, contributing to the development and progression of systemic diseases. By investing in oral health, our patients not only protect their smiles but also strengthen their overall health.
As advocates of Biological Dentistry, we are committed to providing comprehensive dental care that promotes holistic well-being and contributes to a healthier and happier life.
