Benefits of visiting a holistic dentist in the Cary area

At Cary and Cornelius Holistic Dental Centers, Drs. Carl McMillan and Gabriel Duncan are dentists who want to provide the best in biocompatible care. Our team of professionals is here to help patients in enhancing their smiles, improving their oral health, and in finding ways to do so that are safe and appropriate for their smile and body. This is where a holistic dentist comes into play.

Holistic dental care is often overlooked. Many patients don't understand the systemic link between the smile and the rest of the body. Drs. Carl McMillan and Gabriel Duncan dedicate their practice to offering dental care that focuses on the body as a whole. Because of this, patients can feel better about the care they are receiving.

A holistic dentist will avoid many of the common dental treatments provided in other dental centers, which may include:

• Fluoride - fluoride is a poison and can cause more harm than good
• Mercury - mercury is found in silver amalgam fillings and is the second most toxic element on the planet
• Root canals - this procedure can result in the development of bacteria within a tooth and cause problems throughout the bloodstream
• In-office power bleaching - teeth whitening with in-office power bleaching is avoided because it is ineffective and expensive, while causing sensitivity and unsatisfactory results
• Metal dental implants - our practice uses zirconium dental implants for tooth replacement and denture stability because the material is more aesthetic and biocompatible with the body
• Metal restorations - crowns and other metal restorations are avoided entirely because of the metal ions they introduce into the body
• Sealants - these are typically avoided at our practice because they may cover areas of decay that are already within the tooth
