Your Dental Concern — Holistic and Biological Dentist Solutions in Virginia, DC & Maryland

Our holistic and biological dentists provide comprehensive diagnostic evaluations and natural, minimally invasive solutions for a full spectrum of dental concerns, including:

● Tooth Pain & Sensitivity

We identify the root cause — decay, cracks, old metal fillings, gum recession, or bite imbalance — and restore the tooth with biocompatible materials, biomimetic bonding, ozone, and minimally invasive techniques.

● Cracked, Fractured, or Worn Teeth

Stress, grinding, airway issues, and old restorations can weaken teeth. We offer conservative inlays, onlays, overlays, and whole-body-focused solutions to stop further breakdown.

Bleeding gums, gum disease, and chronic infections are linked to systemic inflammation. Our biological gum therapy includes:

• Antimicrobial therapy

• Laser therapy

We safely remove mercury amalgam using strict SMART protocols, ensuring protection for your airway, immune system, and long-term health.

For patients seeking non-metal, non-toxic solutions, we offer:

• Ozone therapy
• Guided biological extractions
• PRF healing
• Same-day biological tooth extractions and ceramic zirconia implant placements as a biocompatible tooth replica

● Missing Teeth & Chewing Problems

We specialize in ceramic zirconia implants, immediate implants after extraction, biomimetic crowns, and whole-arch restorations — all metal-free and biological.

● TMJ, Jaw Tension & Bite Imbalance

We evaluate muscle patterns, airway function, sleep-disordered breathing, and craniofacial relationships to treat TMJ with a holistic approach.

● Sleep-Related Concerns & Mouth Breathing

Many dental problems stem from undiagnosed airway concerns. Our biological dentists assess airway health and offer sleep-focused solutions.

We have compiled a list of common dental and oral problems that we treat, along with our biological approach to resolving them. We encourage you to explore the following links to learn more!

• Tongue concerns: Believe it or not, your tongue can be an important indicator of not just your oral health, but other health problems that might be occurring in your body. We can help you determine the cause of tongue issues you may be experiencing.
• Facial wrinkles: Fight facial wrinkles with revolutionary SmoothLase® laser therapy. This intra-oral laser treatment non-invasively reduces wrinkles and provides anti-aging skin benefits for a broad range of skin types, tones, and colors.

• Safe removal of mercury fillings: If you have mercury fillings in your mouth due to past tooth decay and are concerned about their potential toxic effects, we can safely remove them using a stringent protocol and replace them with a biocompatible material.
• Root canal therapy alternatives: Toothaches can indicate decay or sometimes, trouble beneath the surface in the root canal. If you are seeking alternatives to a root canal, we might have options for you.
• Tooth extraction & non-metal implant: Extreme tooth erosion or damage can lead to the need for extraction, but fortunately, with non-metal zirconia implants, patients can achieve an unparalleled look, feel, and function that mimics your natural tooth.
• Tooth abscess: Bacterial overgrowth in your mouth can lead to the formation of an abscess, which can cause great discomfort and other negative effects.

• TMJ, jaw pain, and headache: If you regularly suffer from jaw pain, headaches, or other seemingly vague issues, you may be suffering from TMJ disorder or TMD. Dr. Hart is experienced at diagnosing TMD and providing relevant treatments so you can get relief.
• Yellow teeth: Your smile is an important part of how you interact with people, and yellowed teeth can impact your self-confidence. Fortunately, there are a variety of solutions for discolored teeth, even teeth that have permanent stains and discoloration.
• Teeth grinding: If you grind or clench your teeth at night, it can slowly cause serious damage to your teeth as well as lead to issues such as chronic pain and headaches. We determine the cause of bruxism and provide appropriate treatment options for your specific needs.
