As a biological dentist in Centerville, OH, Dr. Linty John-Varghese uses biocompatible materials to align dental care with your body's natural biology.
Understanding Biocompatibility in Dentistry
Biocompatible materials work harmoniously with the human body and are unlikely to cause allergic reactions or harm natural tissues. Their use is critical in biological dentistry because they ensure dental work does not introduce toxins or disrupt the body's natural functions.
Unlike traditional dentistry, which often uses a range of materials without considering systemic health impacts, Dr. Linty focuses on materials that are safe for the whole body. This approach minimizes potential reactions and promotes overall wellness.
Materials Used in Biological Dentistry
At Ohio Holistic Dental Center, we commonly use composite resins for fillings, which are mercury-free and match the natural tooth. Porcelain or ceramic used for crowns and bridges is biocompatible and provides strength and durability without metal.
SMART Amalgam Filling Removal
We follow the SMART protocol for safely removing amalgam fillings and replacing them with biocompatible materials. This process protects you and our team from mercury exposure during removal and ensures your fillings support your total health.
