Holistic dentistry, also called integrative or biocompatible dentistry, is an approach to dental care that recognizes the importance of oral health in the overall context of your well-being. At Longchamp Dental Clinic, we are committed to practicing holistic dentistry, with an emphasis on balancing your oral health, body, and mind.
Here's what you can expect from our holistic dentistry approach:
1. Complete assessment: During your first visit, our team will perform a complete oral health assessment, taking into account your medical history, specific concerns and health goals. We view your mouth as an interconnected system with the rest of your body.
2. Preventive care: Prevention is a cornerstone of holistic dentistry. We encourage you to practice good oral hygiene habits at home and recommend regular visits for professional cleanings, dental checkups and preventive screenings. We believe that a healthy mouth is essential to maintaining good overall health.
3. Biocompatible materials: we are careful about the materials we use in our dental treatments. We favor biocompatible and environmentally friendly materials for dental fillings, crowns, dentures and other treatments. Our goal is to minimize exposure to potentially harmful chemicals and create long lasting restorations that are safe for your health.
4. Mind-Body Relationship: We understand that emotional and mental well-being can impact your oral health. We strive to create a warm and welcoming environment, using relaxation techniques to reduce the stress and anxiety associated with dental care. Your comfort and peace of mind are our priority.
5. Interdisciplinary collaboration: As part of our holistic approach, we work closely with other health professionals, such as doctors, naturopaths or therapists, to consider the impact of your general health on your oral health. We believe in an integrated approach that takes into consideration all aspects of your well-being.
At our Longchamp dental clinic, we are committed to providing holistic dental care that supports your overall health. Our team of caring, experienced dentists are here to support you on your oral health journey, taking into account your individual needs and working collaboratively with you to achieve and maintain optimal balance.
