At LALA Dental, Dr. Edwards and his dental associates believe in following holistic dentistry, which is an approach that considers an individual's overall health and well-being while helping them maintain their oral health.
The main concept behind holistic dentistry is that teeth are an important part of our body and oral health impacts our overall health.
Dr. Edwards and his dental associates believe dentistry is not centered only on the teeth and its importance is much deeper. They focus on improving the patient's oral and overall health by stressing the body's self-healing mechanisms. They consider the patient's overall health while planning their dental treatments.
Our holistic dental office regards the mouth as the gateway to and reflection of the entire body and overall health. Thus, Dr. Edwards and his dental associates stress the ability to maintain overall health by preventing and treating oral disease.
Holistic dentistry looks at the patient as a whole, not just the tooth in need of repair. Dr. Edwards and his dental associates look at more than just your teeth; they look at your overall health as well. They work by finding the root cause of the problem and trying to fix it. This includes nutrition, lifestyle factors, and emotional health.
Dr. Edwards and his dental associates also try to prevent problems instead of simply fixing them after they’ve already developed. In addition, Dr. Edwards and his dental associates believe in educating patients about the best dental care practices and giving them the best personalized dental care.
