Treat Your Smile to Biological Dental Services

By maintaining a healthy smile, your entire body is positively impacted too. It’s what makes holistic dentistry so valuable. With our whole body approach to dentistry, we treat what’s causing the problem and not only the symptoms. We use a minimally invasive approach to care for patients in any stage of life. Whether you are a child being introduced to the dentist or someone older in need of replacement teeth, you’ll enjoy the advantages of our unique practice to dental care.

With his unique understanding of how your oral health and systemic health work synergistically, Dr. Porter looks at more than just your teeth and gums. Your initial visit to our office includes a biologic exam where he also looks at your thyroid, adrenals, A1C (blood sugar levels), and more.

You’ll benefit through our use of biocompatible materials that are organic and natural, including ceramic dental implants and amalgam-free, mercury-free fillings. In addition, you can take advantage of:

  • Completely metal-free dental care
  • Bacteria gum therapy
  • Biological teeth extractions
  • Fluoride-free treatments
  • ALF (Advanced Lightwire Functionals) orthotropics to help ensure proper dental development for your child
  • Laser therapy for fast and painless procedures
  • Oral bacterial testing
  • Cosmetic improvements with facial aesthetics using PRF
  • A1C testing to measure blood sugar levels
  • Heart rate variability testing
  • 3-D cone beam CT imaging

To promote quicker healing and superior results following treatment, Dr. Porter can use platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) therapy, IV vitamin C treatments, minor autohemotherapy, and ozone therapy.

We also follow the ReCODE Protocol program to treat and diagnose the dental health issues that can increase your risk for early stage Alzheimer’s, including dental infections, metal or mercury fillings, and sleep apnea.

Although he has been practicing dentistry for many years, Dr. Porter still pursues ongoing education opportunities to offer his patients the best in dental care. He is one of the only dentists in the area who has been certified by the International Academy of Oral Medicine and Toxicology  in its SMART protocol to safely remove mercury amalgam fillings. By devoting hundreds of hours every year to improving his treatment techniques, he is able to guide his patients to better health.
