Naturopathic Dentistry
What is naturopathic dentistry based on?
Naturopathic dentistry uses natural healing methods to support oral health and promote self-healing powers. It does not replace conventional medical methods but complements them with particularly gentle means. Good examples include plant-based mouthwashes or the use of medicinal plants for mild gum inflammation.
After dental procedures, wound healing can be promoted by alternative dentistry methods. Homeopathic preparations may also be used depending on the situation. Alternative dentistry never replaces modern dentistry. However, it can provide support when a tooth needs to be repaired, extracted, or replaced. Many patients, for example, appreciate soothing naturopathic accompanying measures for dental anxiety or herbal remedies to alleviate mild inflammation when antibiotics are not necessary.
Biocompatible Dental Restorations: Ceramic instead of Amalgam and Metal
An important aspect of naturopathic dentistry is the use of sustainable and, where possible, compatible materials. This applies particularly to dental restorations. Many people are sensitive to metals or certain plastics, which often leads to diffuse complaints. Therefore, bio-dentistry relies on metal-free, biocompatible materials such as ceramic implants or metal-free fillings.
Even if fillings or implants are already anchored in the jaw, it may be advisable to remove them later – for example, if they consist of amalgam. These mercury-containing fillings were frequently used in the past but are considered health-hazardous and must be removed under special protective measures. Your dentist in Kronberg will be happy to replace your amalgam fillings with modern, compatible dental restorations.
Alternative Dentistry: More Health for Your Mouth
Methods of naturopathic dentistry can also achieve good results in prevention. For example, a dental cleaning can also be performed with mild, natural-based cleaning agents. In addition, at the Kronberg Dental Center, we offer advice on nutrition and a healthy lifestyle to strengthen oral flora and prevent dental problems.
Stress and inner tension also affect dental health. Grinding, clenching, or gum inflammation often have psychological causes. Much can be achieved here with relaxation techniques, stress reduction, or individual counseling.
