Biological dentistry, naturopathic testing and a detox spa, all in one office at Summerfield Commons.
Biological dentistry

Safe mercury amalgam removal
Millions of people have at least one silver amalgam filling, and about half of each one is mercury. Hot food and drinks, brushing and grinding increase mercury vapor, and drilling a filling out without proper care creates the most of all.
For more than thirty years, the International Academy of Oral Medicine and Toxicology (IAOMT) has advocated for a science-based protocol that protects patients during removal. nutraDentist follows it, including food grade charcoal, oxygen, a rubber dam and high volume suction.
Removal is done in a careful, comfortable way, followed by a detox plan that fits you.
High-tech air purifiers with extension tubes positioned by your mouth remove mercury vapor and particulates from the treatment room.
A rubber dam barrier minimizes the scattering of amalgam debris and limits contact with the tissues of your mouth.
High volume evacuation pulls vapor and particles away right at the source.
Purified water during removal lowers the temperature and limits mercury vapor.
Larger and fewer pieces are removed, which means less surface area for mercury to escape.
Many patients add a session in the office's Clearlight infrared sauna. Detox supplements are also available.
Naturopathic and gut health
Testing and nutrition support that connect what is happening in your mouth with the rest of your body.
Led by Dr. Mark Buzzatto, a Board Certified Naturopathic Physician and Certified Clinician in Whole Food Nutrition.
Digestive wellness and nutrition support, including GI testing that looks at the microbiome and the oral microbiome.
Spa and detox
Relaxing therapies right down the hall from the dental chair, guided by Elena, the office's certified salt and light therapy specialist.
The three-person Clearlight Infrared Sauna combines near, mid and far infrared light with dry heat in one spa experience.
Medical grade chromotherapy LED lights in the sauna let you choose from 12 colors, including red, orange, yellow, green, blue and violet.
Also called halotherapy, salt therapy recreates the microclimate of a salt cave. A halogenerator disperses tiny particles of dry, pharmaceutical grade salt into the air while you relax.
Red light is the most popular color in chromotherapy and is known as the Great Energizer. Ask the team how red light fits into your visit.
