At Friends & Family Dental Health, our practice is dedicated to dental wellness for the entire family with a special interest in holistic dentistry. We believe there is a significant connection between the mouth and the entire body. Dr. Wasylucha is a member of the International Academy of Oral Medicine and Toxicology and offers an alternative approach to dental care, seeking to improve the quality and safety of dentistry. We are proud to be exclusively networked with naturopaths, chiropractors, and massage therapists. We maintain high standards. Our staff is highly trained and experienced. We undergo continual training and we consistently strive to improve our services. We aid patients in becoming more educated about dental health and dental disease. Education is the key in preventing problems and the most valuable service we can offer as professionals. We have created a non-toxic office environment to support wellness (mercury free, fluoride free, gluteraldehyde free). We are networked with other health care professionals such as naturopaths, chiropractors and massage therapists. We do not use fluoride for children or adults or advocate its use. We perform root canal therapy, but have modified the procedure because we think some important and very possible legitimate issues have been raised about traditional root canal therapy. We offer progressive orthodontic techniques for children and adults making orthodontic treatment more affordable and reducing the duration of treatment. We offer the latest advancements in laser dentistry, changing the approach to many traditional dental procedures. Laser dentistry reduces the need for local anesthetics in restorative dentistry and allows for more effective treatment of gum disease. |
