Biological Dentistry in Scottsdale, AZ

At Scottsdale Cosmetic Dentistry, we offer comprehensive dental care focusing on the interconnected relationship between your oral health and overall well-being. This approach is called biological dentistry, with practices that support a healthy smile and natural body balance.

What Is Biological Dentistry?

Your mouth is the gateway to your body, and biological dentistry emphasizes using safe, non-toxic materials and techniques to minimize the impact of dental treatments on overall health. Dr. Jeffrey Clark is a proud member of the International Academy of Oral Medicine and Toxicology (IAOMT), an organization that advocates for safer, more biocompatible dental practices. His commitment to this approach ensures every aspect of your care supports your dental health and long-term wellness.

With advanced technologies and treatments, such as digital x-rays, and safe amalgam removal techniques, we ensure top-tier dental care that supports a healthy smile and prioritizes your overall health.

Benefits of Biological Dentistry

Many of us are becoming more aware of steps we can take to live a lifestyle that supports whole-body health and wellness. This approach is especially critical in dentistry and offers several benefits.

Use of Biocompatible Materials

We prioritize using materials compatible with your body’s natural chemistry to reduce the risk of allergic reactions, toxicity, and other health issues. This ensures dental work, such as tooth fillings and crowns, are safe and supports whole-body health and wellness.

Eliminating Toxins in Dentistry

Traditional materials commonly used in dentistry, such as silver amalgam fillings that contain mercury, can potentially introduce toxins into the body. Our practice uses mercury-free and other non-toxic materials to protect you and the environment from harmful chemicals.

Holistic Oral Health Approach

Biological dentistry recognizes that our oral health is closely linked to our overall health. By considering this connection when treating dental issues, we offer treatments that contribute to your long-term well-being and help prevent systemic health issues related to dental problems.

Incorporating Biological Dentistry into Our Practice

Here are some ways we incorporate holistic dental practices to ensure the safest and most effective care possible:

Biocompatible Materials — We use only biocompatible materials in our dental restorations, including fillings, crowns, and implants. These materials are safe and durable and help minimize potential negative reactions in the body.
Safe Amalgam Removal — For patients with mercury amalgam fillings, we follow strict protocols from the IAOMT for their safe removal. This process protects our patients and the dental team from mercury vapors during the procedure.
Patient-Centered Care—We understand you are unique, and we tailor our biological dentistry treatments to fit your individual needs. By considering your health history, lifestyle, and personal preferences, we create a customized approach to whole-body health and wellness.

Dr Clark and his staff are always timely, friendly, professional, gentle. I’ve been seeing Dr Clark for 23 years and always had a very pleasant experience.

D.M S

Excellent experience. I have been seeing Dr. Clark for over 23 years. Having said that my crowns have lasted as long and are still in perfect condition! He does impeccable work! He does same day crown replacement. It takes approximately 1 to 2 hours and you walk out with your new porcelain crown. Beautiful work. Office staff couldn't be more friendly either.

My husband and I have been patients of Dr. Clark for close to 20 years. His work is consistently outstanding, and his standards of care, skill level, and commitment to excellence as well as his concern for you as a person is amazing. Dr. Clark is fully committed to providing his patients with the very best, most up-to-date dental experience and outcome. His level of integrity and professionalism sets him apart and establishes an environment that gives you confidence. You know you are in good hands the minute you walk into the office. His office staff are easy to work with, friendly, caring, always helpful and very responsive. Whenever we have needed after hours or weekend attention, Dr. Clark has always personally called us back. His dental team is also highly skilled and they make anything from a cleaning to a crown a pleasant experience. One outstanding experience was for a very tricky crown for an implant for one of my front teeth, and Dr. Clark went way, way beyond the norm to make sure this highly visible crown had the best possible fit, color and shape. He is a superb perfectionist who puts his knowledge, expertise, and innovative thinking into everything he does, which are wonderful traits in a dentist. And, his offices are lovely…comfortable, spacious, immaculate, well appointed and the view of the McDowell mountains from every chair is an extra plus! We feel very fortunate to have found Dr. Clark all those years ago and will continue to trust him and his team with our dental needs for years to come.

I’ve had an excellent experience with Dr. Clark and his staff from day one. Everyone has been professional, friendly, and competent, always putting me at ease. Dr. Santoro, who performed my most recent procedure, was just as impressive and equally professional, personable, and skilled. I’m pleased with the results and relieved to have experienced minimal pain afterward, far better than I expected. I was honestly surprised at how little discomfort I had, needing only a couple doses of over-the-counter pain reliever. That was it. Dr. Clark’s entire staff has been consistently warm, courteous, and knowledgeable since my first visit. They take the time to communicate clearly and never make you feel rushed. I’m very grateful to have found such a trustworthy and talented team. Highly recommend!

Have been a patient with Dr. Jeffrey Clark for over 15 years. From cleanings to crowns he and his staff have always done great work. Highly recommend.

M S

Dr. Clarke just gave me a very natural restoration of 8 teeth by replacing decades old metal fillings. I am in absolute disbelief with how efficient his process was. The last time I had a single crown in another state, one crown took 3 weeks and 4 visits to 2 doctors. Dr. Clarke can do 1 or 2 crowns, along with fillings and partial crowns, in 3 hours in a single visit! His staff is obsessed with keeping patients safe and comfortable. He is absolutely the best!
