Why Annandale, VA patients choose the care of a holistic dentist

Gyu Hwang, DDS, provides a broad range of services to help you enjoy optimal wellness and a winning smile. That is accomplished with biologically friendly techniques and non-toxic materials. For example, he has been a mercury-safe and mercury-free dentist for a long time – the practice places no “silver amalgam” mercury fillings and adheres to strict IAOMT protocols for the safest possible mercury fillings removal. We test for and carefully select the safest materials that are the most biocompatible, for each of the procedures we perform. Plus, natural ozone therapy, clinical nutritional approaches, and homeopathic support help avoid the need for harsh anti-bacterial chemicals.

Dr. Hwang’s goal is for you to enjoy life with comfortable oral function that feels good from head to toe. This includes treatment for TMJ disorders, sleep apnea, and periodontal disease. Though biological dental care is extremely advantageous to adults, it is even more valuable for children, as they get lifelong benefits of a healthier start. Biological/holistic dentistry is aesthetic, as well as functional. You can feel great about an attractive, metal-free smile with treatments such as cosmetic bonding and zirconia ceramic dental implants and crowns.

This may sound like much more attention from a dentist than you are accustomed to. However, it is affordable dental care in the long term, helping you avoid situations that lead to extensive and expensive dental or medical treatment in the future.
