Dr. Mobasser is one of the best holistic dentists in Los Angeles. Holistic dentistry or Biological Dentistry is an approach to dental care that considers the patient’s dental health in the context of their overall health. It is sometimes called “Biological” dentistry or “Biocompatible” dentistry. Holistic dentistry looks at the person as a whole to administer holistic dental treatment, rather than just a set of teeth and jaws. If you’re looking for a holistic dentist in Los Angeles, contact us today to arrange your consultation.
Enfoque del odontólogo holístico Dr. Anthony Mobasser
According to the Top Holistic Dentist in Los Angeles, Dr. Anthony Mobasser, principles of holistic dentistry must be practiced to avoid the destructive effects of dental infections and dental diseases, which can spread throughout the entire body.
One should eat nutrient-dense foods, avoid root canal problems from the beginning, and avoid mercury (amalgam) fillings. If it is necessary to extract teeth, then avoid leaving the jawbone with cavitation (large holes), which can be the focal point of infection.
Amalgam use is avoided in holistic dentistry due to concerns about toxicity. Amalgam removal and replacement with natural-looking bonded materials is a common holistic dentistry treatment as well as a common aesthetic dentistry treatment.
The mercury/amalgam is not only potentially bad for the teeth and the body, but it also looks unsightly and unnatural and requires the removal of a much more precious tooth structure.

Composite fillings are used generally to remove cavitation and restore the tooth, however, in certain cases, the patient might be allergic to the composite material.
The composite is usually plastic and glass fillers, and a certain percentage of people are allergic to Methyl Methacrylate’s known as (MMA). Dr. Mobasser will need allergic testing prior to the restoration of teeth.
For more long-lasting restorations, porcelain inlays, onlays, or full ceramic crowns and porcelain veneers are used. The medical history of the patient, combined with the X-rays and evaluation of their occlusion determines, which material is best to use in our holistic dentistry approach.
Per Dr. Anthony Mobasser, one of America’s Top Dentists, the more conservative the approach to salvage tooth structure, the more your teeth will last for the rest of your life.
In his Clínica dental holística en Los Ángeles, Dr. Anthony Mobasser is committed to holistic dentistry. A guiding principle is that the health of the mouth and the health of the body simply cannot be separated. Dr. Mobasser believes in combining the most natural approach possible with state-of-the-art technology for optimal results.
Zirconia implants and Porcelain Crowns not containing any metals, metal-free porcelain lab fabricated inlays and onlays are some of the holistic procedures that our Holistic Dentist in Los Angeles incorporates in his office.

¿Qué pruebas de biocompatibilidad se recomiendan?
Dr. Mobasser recommends Clifford Materials Reactivity Testing (CMRT), testing which is basically a blood test, in which you will be tested for over 1800 different dental materials, and based upon the level of any allergy, or causing depression of your immune systems, those materials will be not used in your dentistry or cosmetic dentistry treatment.
There is also hair testing, by Doctor Data testing in which helps mercury toxicity for patients who have been exposed to multiple mercury fillings.
In regard to the metals used in dental implants, Dr. Mobasser recommends MELISA or Prueba de inmunoestimulación de linfocitos de memoriaque es un análisis de sangre también para pacientes con hipersensibilidad retardada, para detectar amalgamas dentales o cualquier restauración de porcelana fundida sobre metal.
Materiales compuestos sin BPADr. Mobasser recommends composite restorations without BPA (Bisphenol A and Phthalates) which has caused certain allergies and possible asthma problems, in very minor populations.
Depending on the patient’s needs and desires in relation to holistic dentistry, Dr. Mobasser can address many significant aspects such as the use of mercury-free fillings; material compatibility testing; innovative isolation techniques to eliminate mercury exposure; the use of oxygen; the role of nutrition in oral health; the relationship of gum disease to other physical problems; and structural components (such as TMJ, postural asymmetry, uneven bite, etc.). In our office, we look at the biocompatibility of the different tooth-filling composite resins with each individual concerned.
Este paciente buscaba una solución más confiable después de años de mantener adhesión dental que se había vuelto grueso, manchado y propenso a reparaciones repetidas. Preservar la estructura dental que le queda era especialmente importante, así que pidió carillas de composite eso no requeriría ninguna preparación adicional. El Dr. Mobasser, en general, se mostraba a favor de carillas de porcelana por su durabilidad, resistencia y capacidad para resistir la decoloración. En este caso, sin embargo, se consideró que la mordida del paciente no era traumática, lo que hizo que carillas compuestas sin preparación una opción de tratamiento razonable. Las nuevas restauraciones se fijaron en su lugar y crearon un tono natural y vivo que transformó la sonrisa superior. Ella quedó muy satisfecha y también quería blanquear los dientes inferiores para lograr una mayor armonía de colores. Tenga en cuenta que, por lo general, no es posible colocar carillas de composite o de porcelana en la arcada inferior sin preparación previa, a menos que se restauren los 14 dientes inferiores y se eleve la mordida para crear aproximadamente un milímetro de espacio. Las carillas de porcelana convencionales que requieren la reducción de los dientes podrían ser una opción viable. A consulta exhaustiva y se debe realizar una evaluación de la mordida con el Dr. Mobasser antes de elegir el tratamiento.
¿Cuál es la diferencia entre un dentista holístico y uno normal?
A holistic dentist is focused on the full body and oral cavity, since the oral cavity is part of our systemic health system, and each part affects the other.
A holistic dentist will use amalgam-free restorations, try to avoid root canals, and do not use fluoride. Most Holistic dentists will use natural remedies as treatment options, they believe in the principles of holistic medicine.
A General Dentist Treats the whole mouth, taking care of bone, gum, cavities, root canals, all types of crowns, dental implants, and focus on health also, they do believe in root canal therapy and using certain fluorides for preventative measures.
Some expert dentists will use the state of the art equipment and cutting-edge materials to obtain the best possible results to get their patients healthy.
¿Qué utilizan los dentistas holísticos para los empastes?
Los dentistas holísticos utilizan composites sin metal (adhesión dental), que contienen una cantidad mínima de Bisfenol A (BPA) in which is thought to act as a hormonal Estrogenic substance.
If the fillings are not large, a composite that is BPA-free is advised, for larger fillings, a Holistic Dentist will use inlay and onlays which are made of porcelain materials. These can be regular Feldspathic Porcelain, or Emax Porcelain, and/or Zirconia Porcelain.
¿Los seguros cubren a los dentistas holísticos?
Most services and treatments of Holistic Dentists are covered by insurance, however most expert Holistic Dentists are private, so patients usually handle holistic dentist fees at the time of their visit, and then as a courtesy, the holistic dental office will bill the patient’s insurance so the patient gets reimbursed.
Please note, each dental insurance is different. Depending on the contract the patient signed with the insurance company, some cover a higher limit, some cover less. Most dental insurances have a set limit of coverage per year, and most pay a partial percentage of the insurance company fees that are predetermined, not the holistic dentist fee.
Think of dental insurance as a little help, to cover a portion of the cost. Unlike medical insurance which can cover a lot more if the patient requires hospitalization, and as opposed to medical insurance, dental insurances are much more limited in their scope and coverage.
¿Los dentistas holísticos hacen coronas?
Yes and No. Most expert Holistic Dentists want to avoid crowns, but do dental bonding, place Porcelain Veneers, Veneer Onlays, and Veneer overlays.
The reason for this is to preserve as much tooth structure as possible. However, if the patient requires a Crown, only Porcelain Crowns are indicated; and prior to placing the crown, a tooth build-up is necessary.
Also, all previous amalgams must be removed completely with composite build-up prior to having the Porcelain Crown placed. A Holistic Dentist will avoid using a PFM or porcelain fused to any metal crown.
