Holistic dentistry focuses on the overall health and wellbeing of patients. Instead of just treating dental issues and assisting patients in preventing them from occurring in the future, a holistic dentist will help patients with every aspect of their life to offer a proactive approach to their health.

At Evans Dental Care in Williamsburg, we offer holistic dental treatment for patients of all ages. We understand that what happens in the mouth can have a impact on the rest of the body. Patients with periodontal disease may develop a higher risk for problems such as heart disease, stroke, and diabetes. This occurs because the bacteria in the mouth flows through the bloodstream into the rest of the body and can infect other organs. There is a systemic link to the wellbeing of the mouth and the body, and a holistic dentist focuses on how a patient can improve their overall health.

Dr. Evans avoids mercury and BPA in his practice. He does not believe in placing amalgam fillings as they can result in mercury toxicity, and there has been increased knowledge on the negative effects of BPA. Everything used in his practice is BioCompatible and can benefit the body instead of harming it. Ceramic dental implants are used instead of titanium, and BioCompatible crowns are placed instead of amalgam fillings. At Evans Dental Care, we follow all safety protocols set forth by the International Academy of Oral Medicine and Toxicology to ensure the removal of mercury fillings is done correctly, and we follow a strict waste management system to avoid contamination of our environment.
