Our Holistic Approach
We take your overall long-term health into consideration with every treatment.
What is holistic dentistry?
Holistic dentistry provides treatment which considers the overall and long-term health and well-being of a patient rather than just treat the specific condition.
It also examines health symptoms in other parts of the body which can be treated by addressing conditions originating in the mouth or jaw.

Our approach to holistic dentistry
We are very much focused on your overall health and well-being. Each dental treatment considers your age, health, lifestyle and other personal factors to determine the most appropriate treatment to improve success.
We constantly research better dental techniques to be able to offer alternative treatments to suit your individual circumstances. We take the time to explain the benefits and considerations of any treatment prior to proceeding and of course answer any questions you have.
Some common treatments and conditions which are often associated with holistic dentistry include:
- Amalgam (mercury-alloy) Filling Removal - mercury alloy has previously been used as a tooth filling material. If amalgam fillings need removal this needs to be done safely to prevent the release of toxins.
- Sleep Apnea - when breathing is blocked for dangerous periods during sleep. Dental devices can help keep airways open during sleep to reduce sleep apnea impacts.
- TMJ Dysfunction - jaw, ear, neck or shoulder pain, along with persistent headaches and even tinnitus can be attributed to Temporomandibular Joint (TMJ) dysfunction.
Dental treatment delivered holistically.
Dr Finkelstein will take your overal health and well being into account at every appointment.
