Frequently Asked Questions
What does a holistic dentist do differently?
A holistic dentist, like Dr. Carla Yamashiro, looks at your dental health in the context of your whole body’s health. They use biocompatible materials, provide nutritional advice for oral health, and consider how your dental work might affect your overall wellness. It’s about treating the person, not just the teeth.
Is silver filling removal safe?
Yes, silver filling removal can be done safely. At Ecologic Dentistry, we use advanced techniques to minimize mercury exposure during removal. This includes protective barriers, specialized suction devices, and ensuring the room is well-ventilated. After removal, we replace the fillings with safer, more aesthetically pleasing materials.
How often should I get cleanings and checkups?
We recommend at least twice a year for most patients to keep your oral health in check. However, depending on your dental history or specific conditions, Dr. Yamashiro might suggest more frequent visits for optimal care.
Can clear aligners straighten teeth without braces?
Absolutely! Clear aligners can be as effective as braces for many orthodontic issues. They work by gradually shifting your teeth into place over time, offering the convenience and discretion that metal braces can’t match. Dr. Yamashiro will evaluate your case to determine if aligners are the right fit for your smile goals.
What snoring solutions do you offer?
We offer several snoring solutions at Ecologic Dentistry. Besides custom-made oral appliances that reposition your jaw to keep your airway open, we also provide the innovative QuietNight laser treatment, which targets the soft palate to reduce vibration and snoring.
Additionally, for those dealing with sleep-disordered breathing, we offer the Vivos system, a non-invasive approach to improve airway function and reduce snoring by promoting proper jaw and tongue positioning.
What CPAP Alternatives do you offer?
Our primary alternative to CPAP machines is the Vivos system. This treatment involves using customized oral appliances designed to reshape the upper airway over time, addressing the root causes of sleep apnea.
It’s a non-invasive, comfortable option that can significantly improve your sleep quality without the need for a CPAP machine.
