Enjoy the Benefits of Mercury-Free Dentistry

You can feel confident that every procedure at Sundance Dental and Orthodontics is 100% mercury-free.

When we perform a procedure, we think about the way that procedure will impact your smile and the rest of your body. We would never perform a procedure to fix your teeth using materials that could cause more significant overall harm. Mercury is a toxin found in metal that has been linked to many serious health problems. Before modern dentistry techniques, mercury was commonly used in amalgam dental filling to fix decayed teeth. Amalgam dental fillings are still used in some practices today.

At our practice, our dental fillings are made with a tooth-colored composite that is completely safe and that contains no mercury. Each dental filling placed by your natural dentist is made to match the shade of your teeth and blend with your smile. As a result, our tooth-colored fillings look natural and feel comfortable. The people you meet won’t even be able to tell that you’ve had a fill placed.

Holistic dentistry is essential to our philosophy at Sundance Dental and Orthodontics. If you have any questions about our holistic dentistry procedures or want to schedule an appointment, call us at one of our offices in Rio Rancho NM, Bloomfield NM, or Farmington NM, today!

Holistic dentistry focuses on the connection between oral health and overall wellness. It considers the impact of dental treatment on the entire body and often uses biocompatible materials and minimally invasive techniques.

Holistic dentistry goes a step further into the prioritization of dental health by evaluating how dental care could affect other systems in the body. They incorporate natural or alternative therapies when appropriate, for example, by avoiding materials like mercury-based amalgam fillings.

Services include mercury-free fillings, biocompatibility testing for dental materials, ozone therapy, fluoride alternatives, and a focus on whole body wellness through nutrition and toxin reduction.

Holistic dentistry uses scientifically supported techniques that are both safe and effective. They prioritize patient safety and comfort with an emphasis on prevention and less invasive care techniques.

It’s best to check with your provider to make sure, as alternative therapies and non-traditional treatments may not be. But most standard dental procedures, such as cleanings, fillings, and exams, are typically covered by dental insurance.
