Biological dentistry has been gaining it’s momentum in the realm of dentistry. With a focus on biocompatible dental approach and whole-body healing, biological dentists aim not only to treat dental issues but also to address broader health concerns, including Multiple Chemical Sensitivity (MCS).
Multiple Chemical Sensitivity (MCS) is a chronic condition characterized by heightened sensitivity to low levels of chemicals found in everyday environments.
Individuals with Multiple Chemical Sensitivity, MCS, may experience a range of symptoms, such as headaches, dizziness, fatigue, and respiratory problems, when exposed to substances like perfumes, cleaning products, pesticides, and even dental materials.
Biological dentistry takes a comprehensive approach to oral health, considering the interplay between dental treatments and overall well-being. Here’s how biological and holistic dentists can make a difference:
Biocompatible Materials: Unlike traditional dentistry, which may utilize materials containing potentially harmful substances such mercury, BPA, fluoride, chlorohexidine, and many others, biological dentists prioritize biocompatible materials. We carefully select dental materials free from toxic elements, reducing the risk of triggering MCS symptoms in sensitive individuals.
Mercury-Free Dentistry: Amalgam fillings, commonly used in traditional dentistry, contain mercury, a known neurotoxin. For MCS patients, the presence of mercury in dental amalgams can exacerbate symptoms. Our dentists specialize in safe removal techniques for amalgam fillings, and reversal of mercury toxin leaked into body. Our strict mercury removal protocol aims to protect patients in all aspect, inside out.
Safe Protocols: Holistic dentists implement stringent safety protocols to minimize chemical exposure during dental procedures. From air filtration systems to protective barriers, these measures create a safer environment for MCS patients undergoing treatment.
Individualized Approach: Recognizing that each patient is unique, biological dentists take the time to understand the specific needs and sensitivities of MCS patients. By tailoring treatment plans and dental materials to accommodate these sensitivities, we ensure a more comfortable and effective dental experience.
Collaborative Care: Biological dentists often collaborate with other healthcare professionals, including naturopaths, nutritionists, and professionals who test for dental material biocompatibility, to provide holistic support for MCS patients. This multidisciplinary approach addresses not only dental health but also the underlying whole body health factors contributing to MCS symptoms.
Education and treating from the core: As biological dentists, we prioritize beyond just the superficial treatment. We believe in importance of patient education and treating from the core, target the root cause of the issue. By equipping MCS patients with knowledge about potential triggers and preventive measures, they empower individuals to take control of their oral and overall health.
In essence, biological dentistry offers a beacon of hope for individuals navigating the complexities of Multiple Chemical Sensitivity. By embracing a holistic philosophy and integrating cutting-edge practices, we pave the way for whole healing, transforming the landscape of dental care in Seattle and beyond. If you’re seeking a path to dental wellness that prioritizes your health and well-being, consider exploring the realm of biological dentistry – where the journey to healing begins.
