Dr. Sheri Salartash, DDS with Dynamic Dental Wellness in Ashburn, VA joins The Compounding Center's pharmacist, Jay Gill to discuss holistic dentistry. Dr. Salartash talks about the benefits of using laser and ozone in her practice and the concerns with fluoride toothpaste or supplements and mercury fillings. Dr. Salartash explains how fluoride displaces iodine which is necessary for a fully functioning thyroid gland. She suggests toothpastes with hydroxyapatite, such as On Guard or Boka. Other toothpaste options are Revitin or Theodent. Why should we be concerned about mercury fillings? Dr. Salartash recommends having them safely removed to reduce the toxic load in the body, especially if the patient has health concerns or auto-immune disease. There are special procedures needed to remove mercury fillings to avoid breathing or ingesting mercury. Dr. Salartash is clearly passionate about providing the best options for her patients' whole health and not just a treating a symptomatic tooth.
