Services
Dental hygiene therapy
Our dental hygiene therapy focuses on removing plaque and tartar while addressing systemic inflammation through personalized care. We use natural products to minimize irritation and promote long-term oral health. This service includes thorough evaluations and tailored follow-up plans to maintain optimal wellness.
Nutritional counseling
Nutritional counseling identifies dietary deficiencies impacting oral and systemic health. We analyze macronutrient and micronutrient needs to reduce inflammation and prevent dental decay. Recommendations integrate whole-body wellness strategies for sustainable health improvements.
Orofacial myofunctional therapy
This therapy corrects improper oral and facial muscle function to improve breathing, speech, and posture. Certified specialists address habits like mouth breathing that affect dental alignment and overall health. Treatment plans enhance both oral function and systemic wellness.
Biocompatible products
We offer biocompatible products like Nelson Naturals toothpaste and Young Living essentials to support non-toxic oral care. These items minimize chemical exposure while promoting remineralization and microbial balance. Products are selected for their safety and holistic health benefits.
Saliva pH testing
Saliva pH testing measures oral acidity levels linked to cavity risk and systemic inflammation. Results guide personalized interventions to balance pH and improve enamel health. This diagnostic tool supports preventive care aligned with whole-body wellness goals.
