Elevated Care. Evidence-Based. Whole-Body
At Luxe Dental Arts, we focus on treating people, not just teeth.
Our approach is rooted in biological dentistry, which views the mouth as an integral part of overall health. Every material, procedure, and recommendation is chosen to support your body’s natural healing abilities while safeguarding long-term systemic wellness.
This is dentistry that is thoughtful, intentional, and centered on total-body health.
The Foundational Principles of Biological Dentistry
Biological dentistry is based on a whole-body approach that goes beyond simply addressing symptoms, focusing instead on how oral health affects overall wellness. At Luxe Dental Arts, our care emphasizes both aesthetics and biocompatibility. The following core pillars define biological dentistry and guide every treatment we provide:
1.
The Mouth-Body Connection
Biological dentistry is based on the principle that oral health is closely linked to overall systemic health. Infections, toxins, and inflammation in the mouth can impact the heart, brain, immune system, and other vital organs.
How This Translates at Luxe:
At Luxe, we evaluate how your dental health may be affecting chronic conditions like cardiovascular disease, diabetes, autoimmune disorders, or fatigue, and we coordinate your care to support overall wellness.
2.
Biocompatibility
In biological dentistry, every material used in the mouth is chosen to support your body’s unique chemistry. Non-toxic, biocompatible materials are used to reduce immune reactions and encourage natural healing.
How This Applies at Luxe:
At Luxe, we choose materials that are free from mercury, BPA, fluoride, and other known irritants. When needed, we provide biocompatibility testing to ensure your body responds safely to dental restorations.
3.
Minimally Invasive, Preservation-Focused Care
Biological dentistry aims to preserve natural tooth structure and support the body’s natural healing. Aggressive procedures are avoided whenever gentler, holistic alternatives can achieve the same outcome.
How This Looks at Luxe:
At Luxe, we utilize ozone therapy, air abrasion, conservative restorations, and advanced imaging to safeguard your oral health with precision and minimally invasive care.
4.
Safe Mercury Removal and Oral Detoxification
Mercury-based silver (amalgam) fillings are a known source of neurotoxic exposure. Safe removal, when performed correctly, can reduce toxic burden on the body.
How This Is Handled at Luxe:
At Luxe, we adhere to strict IAOMT SMART and IABDM PROTECT protocols for safe amalgam removal, using advanced filtration, oxygen protection, and supportive detox measures to protect patients during the procedure.
5.
Addressing the Root Cause
Instead of simply treating symptoms, biological dentistry seeks to identify the underlying causes of issues such as gum disease, tooth decay, or jaw pain—often revealing connections to microbiome imbalances, systemic health conditions, or toxic exposures.
How We Approach This at Luxe:
At Luxe, we utilize salivary diagnostics, phase-contrast microscopy, 3D imaging, and functional assessments to identify the root causes of your dental and systemic health concerns.
6.
Comprehensive Whole-Person Wellness
Biological dentists focus on more than just teeth—we care for the whole person. This approach considers how nutrition, stress, sleep, immune function, and lifestyle impact both oral and overall health.
How We Support Whole-Person Wellness at Luxe:
At Luxe, we provide personalized, integrative care plans that can include dietary guidance, biocompatibility testing, sleep screenings, and referrals to trusted wellness practitioners.
7.
Informed, Collaborative Care
Biological dentistry is a collaborative approach. Patients are empowered with information and choices, ensuring all treatment decisions align with their long-term health and personal goals.
How This Works at Luxe:
We never rush your care. Our team takes the time to educate, listen, and collaborate, making your experience both empowering and refined.
Understanding Biological Dentistry
Biological dentistry, also called holistic or integrative dentistry, is a science-based approach that combines:
- Advanced clinical techniques
- Use of biocompatible materials
- Minimally invasive procedures
- A thorough understanding of the oral-systemic connection
Unlike traditional dentistry, which often focuses solely on teeth and symptoms, biological dentistry targets root causes—emphasizing prevention, detoxification, and overall bodily harmony.
Redefining Dentistry.
Biological dentistry isn’t “alternative”—it’s advanced. This approach combines the best of science, nature, and aesthetics to enhance both your health and your dental experience.
From the calm, toxin-free environment of our practice to the precise, compassionate care provided by our team, everything we do is focused on one goal: helping you achieve healing and a beautiful, healthy smile.
