Traditional dentists agree with this concept. In fact, evidence suggests as much \u2014 according to the <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.mayoclinic.org\/healthy-lifestyle\/adult-health\/in-depth\/dental\/art-20047475\" target=\"_blank\">Mayo Clinic<\/a>, oral health problems can make other conditions worse and can even affect heart conditions. <\/p>         <div class=\"dentist-tip\">          <div class=\"dentist-tip__title\">             Ask a dentist: What are the benefits of biological dentistry?        <\/div>          <div class=\"dentist-tip__content\">             <\/p>    <p>Silver fillings are actually 50\u201355% mercury. When these silver fillings are replaced with more biocompatible materials, a number of symptoms can decline. Additionally, hidden oral infections can negatively impact one\u2019s health. Infections can be cleaned out or unhealthy teeth extracted to set the stage for genuine improvements in serious illness. <\/p>    <p>As healthcare providers, we work hard to use materials that have minimal side effects or impact on your immune system. This often involves testing techniques to find what resonates with you as an individual. The biggest benefit is that biological dentists collaborate with each other in a number of ways. We are looking for answers for our patients and we will reach out to colleagues for insights and suggestions. <\/p>    <p>No one doctor knows everything, but a large group of doctors can add so much more of an answer for patients to benefit. Biological dentistry is an integrative approach where we look into many health systems to find your answer.<\/p>    <p><strong>Dr. John Grill, Biological and Holistic Dentistry of Tennessee<\/strong><\/p>    <p>        <\/div>      <\/div>          <p>Additionally, there are studies that suggest that inflammation in the gums and periodontitis can play a role in various diseases, and other diseases, like diabetes and HIV, can make oral health conditions worse. <\/p>    <h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Difference between biological dentists and traditional dentists<\/h3>    <p>Both <strong>traditional dentists and biological dentists<\/strong> have graduated from dental school and have a DDS or DMD degree. In fact, biological dentists offer many of the same services as traditional dentists, like routine cleanings, fillings, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dentaly.org\/us\/dental-services\/periodontist-near-me\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">gum disease<\/a> treatment. <\/p>    <p>The main difference is that traditional dentists put the emphasis on oral health, including prevention and treatment of problems with teeth and gums. Biological dentists will try to find the cause of a patient&#8217;s symptoms by taking the entire body into consideration. <\/p>    <p>For example, if a traditional dentist encounters a patient with a cavity, they will drill the cavity and fill it. They will also tell you how to avoid more cavities in the future. A biological dentist who has a patient with a cavity may do a more in-depth inquiry into the patient&#8217;s habits, including diet, workout routine, and sleep patterns. <\/p>    <p>Neither is strictly right or wrong \u2014 different people prefer different methods, but the most important thing is to see a licensed practitioner, go to your semi-annual check-ups, communicate with your dentist about any concerns you have, and follow the guidelines for maintaining good oral health. <\/p>    <p>Have a look at the table below for a summary of the differences:<\/p>   <div class=\"wptb-table-container wptb-table-41344\"><div class=\"wptb-table-container-matrix\" id=\"wptb-table-id-41344\" data-wptb-version=\"2.0.2\" data-wptb-pro-status=\"true\"><table class=\"wptb-preview-table wptb-element-main-table_setting-41344 edit-active\" data-reconstraction=\"1\" style=\"border: 1px solid rgb(209, 209, 209);\" data-wptb-table-tds-sum-max-width=\"393.98148000000003\" data-wptb-cells-width-auto-count=\"3\" data-wptb-table-directives=\"eyJpbm5lckJvcmRlcnMiOnsiYWN0aXZlIjoiYWxsIiwiYm9yZGVyV2lkdGgiOiIxIiwiYm9yZGVyUmFkaXVzZXMiOnsiYWxsIjpmYWxzZX19fQ==\" data-wptb-extra-styles=\"LyogRW50ZXIgeW91ciBjdXN0b20gQ1NTIHJ1bGVzIGhlcmUgKi8=\" role=\"table\" data-table-columns=\"3\"><tbody><tr class=\"wptb-row\"><td class=\"wptb-cell\" data-y-index=\"0\" data-x-index=\"0\" style=\"border: 1px solid rgb(209, 209, 209);\" data-wptb-css-td-auto-width=\"true\"><div class=\"wptb-text-container wptb-ph-element wptb-element-text-31\"><div class=\"\" style=\"position: relative;\"><p><\/p><\/div><\/div><\/td><td class=\"wptb-cell\" data-y-index=\"0\" data-x-index=\"1\" style=\"border: 1px solid rgb(209, 209, 209);\" data-wptb-css-td-auto-width=\"true\"><div class=\"wptb-text-container wptb-ph-element wptb-element-text-32\" style=\"padding: 0px;

However, there are some slight differences between them:<\/p>    <ul class=\"wp-block-list\"> <li><strong>Associations:<\/strong> Biological and holistic dentists are associated with different base organizations. For biological dentistry, the organization is called the International Academy of Biological Dentistry and Medicine, and for <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dentaly.org\/us\/dental-services\/holistic-dentist\/\" target=\"_blank\">holistic dentistry<\/a>, it&#8217;s the Holistic Dental Association.<\/li> <\/ul>    <ul class=\"wp-block-list\"> <li><strong>Marketing: <\/strong>Both branches of dentistry use different marketing strategies. Holistic dentistry marketing uses keywords like &#8216;natural healing&#8217; and &#8216;spiritual healing&#8217; and biological dentistry tends to market in a more traditional way, often without using these terms, but still focusing on a whole-health approach.<\/li> <\/ul>    <ul class=\"wp-block-list\"> <li><strong>Patients:<\/strong> Patients who choose holistic dentistry are often looking for alternative treatments as well as spiritual healing methods, while patients who choose biological dentistry are looking for the whole-body approach and traditional dentistry methods as long as they use biocompatible materials and minimally invasive procedures.<\/li> <\/ul>    <ul class=\"wp-block-list\"> <li><strong>Treatment options:<\/strong> Holistic dentists are more likely to offer alternative treatment options; however, biological dentists are also usually experts in this area as well. Sometimes it comes down to how each individual dentist describes their methods and processes. <\/li> <\/ul>    <h2 id=\"biological-dentistry-tooth-chart\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Biological dentistry tooth chart<\/h2>    <p>The official term is the &#8216;meridian&#8217; tooth chart and is based on the meridian system. This system has its roots in ancient Chinese medicine. Meridians are channels that run through the body, through which energy or &#8216;qi&#8217; flows. If a channel is blocked, then the qi doesn&#8217;t flow and this is when people experience illness or pain.<\/p>    <p>When it comes to teeth, these charts connect specific teeth to different organs, muscles, joints, and glands in your body, as well as parts of the spine. The meridian chart also connects teeth with different emotional imbalances a person may be experiencing. <\/p>    <p>While this chart is a tool that your biological dentist may use to try to better understand where certain oral health problems may originate, patients should not try to self-diagnose and treat at home using this chart. <\/p>    <h2 id=\"biological-dentistry-services\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Biological dentistry services<\/h2>    <p>Biological dentists offer many of the same services as traditional dentists, including routine cleanings and treatment for gum disease.

Most amalgam fillings have 50% mercury, 20% silver, 16% tin, and 15% copper. However, dental amalgam is considered to be safe by various health organizations around the world. <\/p>    <p>The <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.fda.gov\/medical-devices\/dental-devices\/dental-amalgam-fillings\" target=\"_blank\">Food and Drug Administration<\/a> also considers amalgam fillings to be safe for anyone older than 6 years of age, but in Norway and Sweden, dental amalgams have been banned for environmental reasons. <\/p>    <p>The case against amalgam fillings centers around potential allergic reactions, mercury poisoning, and environmental contamination. Between 1% and 3% of the population have some allergy to amalgam fillings. <\/p>    <p><strong>Amalgam removal with biological dentists<\/strong> is a common practice and is done using the SMART method.

They prefer extracting a tooth before performing a root canal. <\/p>    <p>They then replace the tooth with an implant, usually made from ceramic. The reason for this is that biological dentists believe that root canals may leave bacteria behind, which could cause an abscess or even chronic health problems further down the road. <\/p>    <p>In the video below a dentist in Beverly Hills describes the differences in biological and conventional dentistry concerning root canals:<\/p>    <figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube\"><div style=\"display: contents;\" >  <div data-mode=\"normal\" data-oembed=\"1\" data-provider=\"youtube\" id=\"arve-youtube-wesh_zswsuq\" class=\"arve\"> \t<div class=\"arve-inner\"> \t\t<div class=\"arve-embed arve-embed--has-aspect-ratio\"> \t\t\t<div class=\"arve-ar\" style=\"padding-top:56.250000%\"><\/div> \t\t\t<iframe allow=\"accelerometer &#039;none&#039;;autoplay &#039;none&#039;;camera &#039;none&#039;;ch-ua &#039;none&#039;;clipboard-read &#039;none&#039;;clipboard-write;display-capture &#039;none&#039;;encrypted-media &#039;none&#039;;gamepad &#039;none&#039;;geolocation &#039;none&#039;;gyroscope &#039;none&#039;;hid &#039;none&#039;;identity-credentials-get &#039;none&#039;;idle-detection &#039;none&#039;;keyboard-map &#039;none&#039;;local-fonts &#039;none&#039;;magnetometer &#039;none&#039;;microphone &#039;none&#039;;midi &#039;none&#039;;payment &#039;none&#039;;picture-in-picture;publickey-credentials-create &#039;none&#039;;publickey-credentials-get &#039;none&#039;;screen-wake-lock &#039;none&#039;;serial &#039;none&#039;;sync-xhr;usb &#039;none&#039;;window-management &#039;none&#039;;xr-spatial-tracking &#039;none&#039;;\" allowfullscreen=\"\" class=\"arve-iframe fitvidsignore\" credentialless data-arve=\"arve-youtube-wesh_zswsuq\" data-lenis-prevent=\"\" data-src-no-ap=\"https:\/\/www.youtube-nocookie.com\/embed\/WESh_zSwsuQ?feature=oembed&amp;iv_load_policy=3&amp;modestbranding=1&amp;rel=0&amp;autohide=1&amp;playsinline=0&amp;autoplay=0\" frameborder=\"0\" height=\"0\" loading=\"lazy\" name=\"\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-presentation allow-popups allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox\" scrolling=\"no\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube-nocookie.com\/embed\/WESh_zSwsuQ?feature=oembed&#038;iv_load_policy=3&#038;modestbranding=1&#038;rel=0&#038;autohide=1&#038;playsinline=0&#038;autoplay=0\" title=\"\" width=\"0\"><\/iframe> \t\t\t \t\t<\/div> \t\t \t<\/div> \t \t \t <\/div> <\/div><\/figure>    <h2 id=\"conclusion\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Conclusion<\/h2>    <p>Biological dentistry is an approach based on the belief that oral health is deeply intertwined with a person&#8217;s overall health and wellbeing. Biological dentists advocate minimally invasive procedures and use only dental materials that are biocompatible. <\/p>    <p>While biological dentistry isn&#8217;t recognized as an official practice by the ADA, biological dentists have graduated from dental school and have the same license to practice as traditional dentists. They also offer many of the same services as traditional dentists, including routine checkups and gum disease treatment. <\/p>    <h2 id=\"faqs\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">FAQs<\/h2>    <h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What is biological dentistry?<\/h3>    <p>Biological dentistry is dentistry approached through the belief system that dental and oral health is fundamentally connected to a person&#8217;s overall health and wellbeing. <strong>Biological dentists use biocompatible materials<\/strong> and minimally invasive procedures. <\/p>    <h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Is a holistic or biological dentist better?<\/h3>    <p>Holistic and biological dentists are very similar. Both believe in a whole-body approach to dentistry, and both believe in minimally invasive procedures and biocompatible materials. However, holistic dentists tend to put a greater emphasis on energy and spiritual healing. <\/p>    <h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Is biological dentistry safe?<\/h3>    <p>Biological dentists have the same dental degrees as traditional dentists and provide many of the same services. Ultimately, it&#8217;s up to each individual to decide which method is best for them. The ADA warns against the risks of biological dentistry in an official statement. <\/p> <div class=\"socials_share\"><ul class=\"share-buttons\">     <li class=\"share_item share_item-facebook\">
