About Renewal Dental Arts
Renewal Dental Arts practices biological dentistry on Fredericksburg Road in San Antonio, treating the mouth as part of a wider oral-systemic picture. The practice works with biocompatible, fluoride-free materials and minimally invasive technique, and follows defined amalgam-removal protocols using advanced suction, protective barriers and air filtration to limit mercury vapour during treatment. Its clinicians are recorded with the International Academy of Biological Dentistry and Medicine. Diagnostics include cone beam computed tomography for three-dimensional assessment of teeth, jaw, bone structure and airway, alongside phase-contrast microscopy and salivary PCR testing of the oral biofilm. Treatment draws on medical-grade ozone, platelet-rich fibrin from the patient's own blood, photobiomodulation and laser therapy. Zirconia ceramic implants are offered as a metal-free alternative to titanium, and biological extraction and cavitation protocols address healing at the surgical site.

Common Questions
What does this practice do differently during amalgam removal?
Renewal Dental Arts describes safe amalgam removal as a defined process for eliminating mercury-containing fillings under strict safety protocols. These include advanced suction systems, protective barriers and high-quality air filtration, all intended to minimise mercury vapour exposure during treatment. The practice describes itself as a mercury-safe dental office in San Antonio.
Are metal-free implants available here?
Yes. The practice offers ceramic dental implants made from zirconia as a metal-free alternative to titanium, citing biocompatibility, a tooth-coloured appearance and resistance to corrosion. Suitability is not assumed: each patient is evaluated using advanced imaging and individualised treatment planning to determine whether ceramic implants are an appropriate option.
How is ozone used in day-to-day treatment?
Medical-grade ozone is integrated across the practice in three forms. Ozonated water irrigates and disinfects teeth and gums during hygiene visits. Ozone gas is applied to early decay, root canal disinfection, gum healing and dental infections, supporting natural repair while reducing reliance on antibiotics. Ozonated oil is supplied for home use on gum care, mouth sores and post-operative healing.
What is cavitation treatment, and how is it assessed?
The practice uses the term Covered Socket Residuum for areas in the jawbone where healing may not have fully completed after an extraction or earlier procedure, leaving residual unhealthy tissue or chronic inflammation. Such sites are often invisible on traditional dental X-rays and may require three-dimensional CBCT imaging. When clinically indicated, protocols may combine surgical debridement, ozone therapy, platelet-rich fibrin and biocompatible surgical materials.
What happens at a preventive visit if the practice does not use fluoride?
Nano-hydroxyapatite is used in place of fluoride to support enamel remineralisation. Cleanings use distilled ozonated water with piezo ultrasonic scaling, herbal irrigants and polishing pastes free of fluoride, dyes, preservatives and artificial flavours. A live biofilm sample is examined under phase-contrast microscopy to identify spirochetes, amoebas or high-risk rod forms, and findings are explained during the appointment. Exams cover bite, airway and oral cancer screening.
