About Bowen Legacy Dental

Bowen Legacy Dental is a general and cosmetic dental practice on Jasonway Avenue in Columbus, Ohio, continuing a family dental lineage whose first practice opened in 1949 and now spans three generations. Its clinicians are recorded with the International Academy of Oral Medicine and Toxicology. The practice treats oral health as a foundation for whole-body health, combining general and family dentistry with cosmetic, implant and sleep dentistry, and it states a commitment to non-toxic materials — BPA-free plastics and fillings containing no mercury in place of amalgam. Ozone therapy is used to target oral bacteria alongside procedures and surgery, and temporomandibular joint disorder is addressed through individualized plans aimed at underlying causes such as bruxism, clenching, malocclusion and airway problems. Pediatric airway care and adult sleep appliances address sleep-disordered breathing. The office sits near the Clintonville, Worthington, Dublin and Upper Arlington areas.

Common Questions

How does this practice use ozone therapy?

The practice uses ozone therapy to target bacteria in the mouth, describing a flood of pure oxygen and ozone at the treatment site to eliminate harmful microbes while leaving healthy cells untouched. It is offered as an alternative to controlling bacteria with antibiotics, is paired with dental procedures and surgeries, and the practice also cites a remineralization effect on enamel and dentin.

What does this practice place instead of amalgam fillings?

Amalgam, or silver filling material, is roughly 50 percent mercury by weight, and elemental mercury releases vapors that can be inhaled or absorbed; the practice notes that several countries have already restricted amalgam for children and for patients who are pregnant or nursing. It places tooth-colored composite fillings instead, and states a wider commitment to non-toxic materials, including BPA-free plastics.

How is TMJ disorder assessed and treated here?

Each case is handled with a custom plan built around the patient's own jaw anatomy and health. The practice identifies bruxism, jaw clenching, malocclusion, airway issues and jaw injury as sources of added stress on the joint, and works to address the underlying cause with minimal invasiveness — for example orthodontic treatment such as Invisalign where a bad bite drives chronic clenching or grinding.

What is offered for snoring and sleep-disordered breathing?

For adults, the practice offers sleep services including SomnoMed appliances and sleep guards, which advance the jaw to maintain an airway during the night and are presented as an alternative to a Continuous Positive Airway Pressure machine.

What imaging does the office use for diagnosis?

The office uses cone beam computed tomography to capture detailed three-dimensional images of the teeth, which it applies to diagnostics, in-depth recording of dental problems and explaining findings to the patient. The practice states that it is one of the few offices in central Ohio with a cone beam CT scan available on site.

What approach to care should a new patient expect?

The practice places whole-body health first rather than the teeth alone, incorporating holistic practices and nontoxic dental materials across both routine and complex needs.
