Experience Truly Holistic Dental Care: The Difference for a Better Smile and a Healthier You
At Brighton Dental, we view you as a complete individual, not just a set of teeth and gums. Dr. Paige Woods and our team in San Diego, California, are committed to a holistic approach that considers your overall well-being in every aspect of your dental care. We focus on using safe materials and techniques to enhance your health without risks or side effects. Our commitment to holistic dentistry sets us apart by offering a genuine alternative to conventional dental practices.
The Holistic Approach to Dental Care
Traditional dentistry often focuses on treating problems after they arise. We take a proactive approach at our office. We aim to prevent issues before they develop by closely monitoring your overall health and any changes that may impact your dental needs. This proactive approach allows us to tailor our care to your specific needs, reducing the risk of future dental issues.
A Mercury-Free Practice
One key aspect of our holistic philosophy is our commitment to being mercury-free. We do not use amalgam fillings, which contain around 50% mercury by weight. Mercury is a known toxin; we believe it has no place in your dental care. Instead, we use composite resin, a safe and natural-looking alternative, to restore teeth affected by cavities or damage. These materials are biocompatible and aesthetically pleasing, blending seamlessly with your natural teeth.
Mercury-Safe Practices
Beyond avoiding mercury in our restorations, we also adhere to mercury-safe practices when removing old amalgam fillings. Dr. Woods has undergone specialized training and invested in state-of-the-art equipment to ensure the safe removal of mercury fillings for you, our staff, and the environment. We use protective garments, high-quality filtration systems, and other advanced techniques to minimize exposure to mercury vapors and particles, ensuring a safer experience for everyone involved.
Commitment to Patient Comfort and Safety
Your comfort and safety are our top priorities. We use advanced diagnostic tools and treatment methods to provide effective, gentle care. Whether using natural ozone therapy or other innovative techniques, we ensure your dental experience is as comfortable as possible while delivering the best results.
The Holistic Dental Experience
Our holistic approach is not just a buzzword—it’s the foundation of everything we do. We believe that true holistic dentistry involves more than just avoiding harmful materials; it’s about considering how every aspect of your dental care affects your overall health. You’ll notice the difference our holistic approach makes when you walk through our doors. We take the time to get to know you, understand your health needs, and provide care that supports your overall well-being.
