At the Institute of Systemic Dentistry in Berkeley Heights, New Jersey, we offer a holistic dental experience that goes beyond traditional oral care. Our practice is rooted in the understanding that the mouth is connected to the rest of the body, and that dental treatments can have far-reaching effects on a person’s health and well-being.
Patients come to us not just for cleanings or fillings, but for a comprehensive, thoughtful approach that supports long-term systemic health. Here’s what makes our practice different from many conventional dental offices in New Jersey.
A True Whole-Body Dental Approach
Unlike traditional practices that focus only on teeth and gums, we assess how dental concerns may relate to digestion, inflammation, airway function, and even posture. Every treatment plan is designed to support the entire body, not just address symptoms in the mouth.
We also consider the patient’s health history, nutrition, lifestyle, and potential sensitivities to materials. This allows us to treat the root cause of dental issues—not just the surface symptoms.
Biocompatible and Non-Toxic Materials
We avoid toxic materials commonly used in dentistry, such as mercury-based fillings, BPA-laden plastics, and fluoride-based products. Instead, we use biocompatible materials that minimize the risk of systemic inflammation or adverse immune reactions.
Our restorations and sealants are selected to work in harmony with your body’s natural chemistry, helping patients avoid the long-term risks associated with conventional dental compounds.
Advanced Holistic Diagnostics
Our diagnostic process includes high-resolution imaging, airway assessments, and detailed evaluations of bite alignment and jaw function. We aim to catch early signs of imbalance before they lead to more complex health concerns.
We also offer screenings for hidden infections, inflammation, or signs of systemic burden that may show up in the mouth before appearing elsewhere in the body.
Patient Education and Partnership
We believe informed patients make better decisions about their health. That’s why we spend time educating each patient on the connections between oral health, nutrition, breathing, and the immune system. We never rush through visits, and we always discuss options, outcomes, and long-term benefits.
This collaborative model empowers our patients to take control of their health and build sustainable habits that go beyond dental care.
Personalized, Minimally Invasive Treatment
Our treatment philosophy is conservative and tailored. Whenever possible, we use non-invasive or minimally invasive methods to protect natural tooth structure and avoid unnecessary procedures.
We’re also committed to early prevention, helping patients avoid root canals, extractions, and chronic conditions by addressing minor issues before they escalate.
A Calming, Health-Focused Environment
We’ve designed our practice to feel more like a wellness center than a typical dental office. With clean air filtration, natural lighting, and non-toxic building materials, every aspect of our office environment is intended to promote healing and reduce patient stress.
Our team takes time to listen, answer questions, and provide care that is aligned with your health goals and comfort level.
