Holistic dentistry is the art of dentistry practiced in a manner in which toxins that could impact whole body health are avoided. The underlying concept is that all body systems are interconnected and affect each other, including the teeth and mouth. The use of biocompatible materials, along with a focus on promoting optimal oral and dental health are part of a holistic dentistry practice. Another facet of holistic dentistry is that the least invasive, most conservative approach produces better long-term results.
