Services
Pediatric Dentistry
Our pediatric care focuses on early airway development, jaw growth, and preventive care. We address tongue ties, mouth breathing, and oral habits through gentle interventions like palatal expanders. Our approach supports proper facial development, sleep quality, and long-term systemic health for children aged 3-7.
Functional Orthodontics
We specialize in airway-focused orthodontics using palatal expansion and myofunctional therapy. This approach improves breathing patterns, facial development, and sleep quality while correcting dental alignment. Treatment addresses both cosmetic appearance and functional health benefits for improved oxygenation and overall wellness.
Biological Dentistry
Our biological approach uses non-toxic materials and considers oral-systemic connections. Services include safe mercury removal following SMART protocols, ozone therapy applications, and biocompatibility testing. We emphasize natural healing processes and minimize chemical exposure through fluoride-free alternatives like hydroxyapatite.
Preventative Care
Comprehensive preventative services include digital imaging, periodontal screenings, and oral cancer exams. We offer fluoride-free remineralization treatments and airway assessments for early detection of breathing issues. Regular cleanings and exams focus on maintaining oral health to prevent systemic complications.
Cosmetic Dentistry
We provide conservative cosmetic treatments using biocompatible materials. Services include professional whitening, composite bonding, and minimally invasive veneers that preserve natural tooth structure. Our approach prioritizes both aesthetic improvement and long-term oral health while avoiding aggressive procedures.
