What Is Functional Dentistry?

Functional Dentistry at Helix Dentistry is a holistic approach that goes beyond traditional dental care. Instead of merely treating symptoms like cavities or gum disease, we focus on identifying and addressing the root causes of dental issues. This method views the mouth as a key indicator of overall body health, linking oral wellness to the health of your gut, heart, brain, and more.
Our preventative philosophy emphasizes long-term well-being by looking at how oral conditions can affect— and be affected by—your entire body. By understanding these connections, we create personalized treatment plans designed to not only improve your smile but also enhance your overall health. Functional Dentistry combines cutting-edge technology with a deep commitment to patient care, offering a comprehensive path to better health from the inside out.

Made from high-quality zirconia, these implants are ideal for patients with metal sensitivities or those seeking a non-metal solution. They are designed to promote bone growth and provide long-term stability while blending seamlessly with natural teeth. At Helix Dentistry, we provide customized ceramic and titanium implant options based on your unique needs and oral health goals.
