About Birmingham holistic dentistry

Birmingham Holistic Dentistry practices at 2231 Cole St in Birmingham, Michigan, applying a biological and systemic approach to restorative and preventive care. The practice describes its focus as identifying the root cause of cavities, cracks and gum recession rather than treating symptoms alone, and selecting biocompatible materials with attention to the oral-systemic relationship. Work spans amalgam removal under the SMART protocol, biological periodontal therapy, ozone therapy as an adjunct to extractions and restorative procedures, Fotona all-tissue laser treatment of hard and soft tissue, and minimally invasive restorations. A first visit is structured as a two-hour appointment combining low-radiation digital radiographs, 3D CBCT and intraoral scanning with salivary testing and a microscopic oral microbiome exam, so that treatment planning rests on a documented picture of oral and systemic biology.

Common Questions

How does the practice remove amalgam fillings?

It follows the Safe Mercury Amalgam Removal Technique, a protocol developed by the International Academy of Oral Medicine and Toxicology, to limit mercury vapour and particulate exposure for both patient and clinical team during removal. The sequence is a comprehensive oral examination including biological testing, then controlled removal using specialised equipment and containment measures, then replacement of the filling with biocompatible restorative materials.

Where does ozone therapy fit into treatment here?

Ozone is used as an adjunct rather than a standalone treatment. The practice applies it to disinfect and prepare a tooth before a crown or filling is placed, to reduce bacteria and inflammation during gum and periodontal treatment, and to cleanse extraction sites during biological extractions. It is also used to flush waterlines in the chair and instruments. The practice cites ozone's antibacterial, antifungal and antiparasitic properties.

What is the Fotona laser used for?

The practice uses a Fotona all-tissue laser across both hard and soft tissue. Hard-tissue applications include drill-free cavity preparation and fillings, with conservative preparation intended to preserve more sound tooth structure than conventional instrumentation. Each case is evaluated individually for suitability.

How does the practice approach gum disease?

Biological periodontal therapy at this practice is framed around the oral-systemic link between gum disease and cardiovascular disease, diabetes and stroke. Rather than treating the gums in isolation, the practice assesses the oral microbiome through salivary and microscopic testing and tailors treatment to those findings.

What does the practice mean by a holistic approach?

It defines holistic dentistry as a biological and systemic approach that looks for what caused a dental problem rather than only repairing the damage, with the aim of preventing recurrence using the least invasive methods available. In practical terms that means testing to characterise the patient's oral microbiome, selecting non-toxic biocompatible materials for minimally invasive restorations, and treating oral health as connected to whole-body health.
