You may be asking yourself, why on Earth would a dentist be offering facial care treatments?
Dentists spend years studying the complex structures of the face, jaw, and oral tissue. We don’t just focus on teeth. Our training also focuses on how the muscles, skin, nerves, and underlying bone of the face work together with the mouth. That understanding makes it possible to approach facial treatments with an especially careful, balanced perspective.
But even better, from a biological perspective, is that the treatments themselves are aligned with regenerative principles. That’s because they use carefully controlled laser energy to stimulate the body’s own repair processes – not injections, not fillers, not surgery. That’s because the goal isn’t to artificially change the face. It’s to encourage the skin to restore some of its natural firmness and elasticity over time.

A good night’s sleep can make a big difference in your oral health.
When you’re sleeping, many of the systems in your body go into repair mode. It’s also a time when health issues like bruxism and snoring can derail that rebuilding process. If you’re having trouble sleeping, a biological dentist can be a great resource!

“Paleontologists have long believed that teeth evolved from the bumpy structures on this armor, but their purpose wasn't clear. The new study, published in Nature, confirms that these structures in an early vertebrate fish from the Ordovician period about 465 million years ago contained dentin, and likely helped the creature sense conditions in the water around it.” Even though your dentin tubules are covered with enamel now, they are still connecting you to the outside world.

Sometimes people clench their jaw or grind their teeth without even realizing it, especially while they're asleep. A lot of the time, this isn't just about stress - it can actually be caused by breathing problems during sleep.
When your body can't breathe properly at night, it goes into a kind of "panic mode" to try to fix it. Your jaw tightens to help keep your throat open so air can get through. Over time, this can cause jaw pain, headaches, and can even wear your teeth down.
That's why wearing a mouth guard at night doesn't always solve the problem - if your breathing issues aren't fixed first, your jaw will keep clenching no matter what!

If you read our post about the hope of “healing cavities naturally,” you may have picked up on an important truth: Your teeth are constantly losing minerals and constantly gaining them back.
This is a natural and nonstop cycle. So despite how some describe it, remineralization isn’t something you “do” like brushing or flossing. Your body does it for you. The question is whether you’re giving your body what it needs to do this effectively and efficiently.

When it comes to placing a dental implant, the industry standard has always been to wait three to six months for healing and infection control. Now we are seeing studies that support focusing on the needs of the individual patient. Which, as a biological dentist, we can totally get behind!
In some cases, biocompatible, ceramic implants can be placed immediately after extraction. Treated with ozone and PRF, they can do very well. But in other situations the jawbone might need some nutritional rebuilding, or time to heal so it can sustain the implant for years to come. The real "art," as the article puts it, truly lies in the doctor/patient relationship - taking the time to truly understand each person's unique health history, biology, and goals. https://www.drbicuspid.com/clinical/implants/article/15818012/what-dentists-can-expect-from-future-dental-implant-placement

Waiting 30 to 60 minutes after eating or drinking something acidic is a good idea to prevent erosion.
