How Our Dental Cleanings Differ from Other Offices
Our approach incorporates natural and health-conscious products and techniques:
- Use of Pumice: We utilize fine pumice for polishing, which gently removes stains without excessive abrasiveness.
- No SLS (Sodium Lauryl Sulfate): We avoid SLS-based products to reduce irritation and support sensitive tissues.
- No Dyes or Artificial Colors: Our products are free from dyes, minimizing chemical exposure.
- No Fluoride:We opt out of using fluoride during cleanings, in line with our holistic philosophy, to reduce potential health risks.
- Minimally Abrasive Polishing: Our polishing is gentle to prevent damage to your enamel.
- Hydroxyapatite Application: At the end of each cleaning, we apply a natural nano-hydroxyapatite paste to strengthen your enamel and promote remineralization, supporting overall dental health.
- LQS Lidocaine Strips for Comfort: To ensure a more relaxing experience, we offer LQS lidocaine strips that gently numb up to 4mm into the gum tissue. The strips taste fresh and minty, and the numbing effect lasts just 45 minutes—so you’ll feel completely normal by the time you leave the chair!
Why We Avoid Fluoride
While fluoride has been widely used for decades to strengthen enamel and prevent cavities, emerging research suggests potential health concerns:
- Link to Alzheimer’s Disease: Some studies indicate that fluoride exposure may be associated with an increased risk of Alzheimer’s disease
- Lowering IQ in Children: Multiple studies have reported associations between fluoride exposure and reduced IQ levels in children [Source: Harvard School of Public Health, 2012](https://www.hsph.harvard.edu/news/press-releases/fluoride-iq/).
- Other Concerns: Fluoride overexposure may cause dental fluorosis and has been linked to various other health issues in some research.
Given these findings, many health-conscious individuals choose to avoid fluoride in their dental products and treatments.
