Principles of Biological Dentistry
Biodental Healing is a biological or holistic dental practice, meaning that Dr. Villarreal uses principles that aim at improving the health of your teeth, as well as that of your body and mind. This new dental health approach embraces modern practices drawn from multiple, time-tested traditions of natural healing that can be applied to improve general health and wellbeing.
The basic principles of biological dentistry that govern our treatments include:
- Avoidance and/or the removal of dental infections or toxins from dental materials
- Proper nutrition to facilitate the prevention and possibly the reversal of degenerative dental disease
- Prevention and treatment of bite problems, malocclusion, and physical imbalance of the jaws and your body
- Prevention and/or removal of electromagnetic (energetic) disturbances
- Tackling issues pertaining to stress, breathing, lifestyle, sleep, and posture
At Biodental Healing, we provide a wide range of biocompatible dental health solutions to restore the function and comfort of your mouth, enhance your smile, and support your overall health.
A Safe Approach to Modern Dentistry
By keeping abreast of the newest technological advances in dentistry, Dr. Villarreal is able to provide his patients in Newbury Park & Conejo Valley with multiple innovative solutions for their benefit.
Our services and treatments focus on treating gum disease and tooth decay without using harsh materials or chemicals that can adversely affect your health. These include:
Metal-free dentistry
Most metal fillings are silver or gold fillings. Metals are dangerous because they can leach and affect the health of your body or cause electromagnetic disturbances to your nervous system and energy flow in your body. For instance, silver or amalgam fillings contain over 50% mercury, which is considered a highly toxic heavy metal associated with reduced liver, kidney, and thyroid function. Mercury is also said to suppress the immune system, cause mood swings and depression, and even contribute to some nervous system disorders.
Composite fillings
Cases of tooth decay and cavities should be treated promptly to prevent the plaque bacteria from advancing and destroying the sensitive nerves and blood vessels within, as well as the root structure of the teeth. Dr. Villarreal can remove the decay and place tooth-colored composite resin fillings to fill the cavity and restore the structure of the tooth. Using tooth-colored filling material ensures that the restored tooth appears natural, and is virtually unnoticeable in your smile.
Dr. Villarreal can also remove amalgam fillings and administer other dental treatments that are safe for your body.
