The research has begun to illustrate that any intervention on a tooth may have both local and systemic effects on the nervous system, immune system, digestive system, musculoskeletal system, etc. Therefore, Dr. Alireza Panahpour’s approach to oral health encompasses a patient’s diet, immune and structural integrity, and energetic alignment, as well as all of the traditional dental considerations. He specializes in safe mercury filling removal, surgical repair of cavitational osteonecrosis, proper tooth extraction, structural harmony and, most importantly, helping patients practice ‘preventative dentistry’ to avoid future complications altogether.
The field of systemic dentistry or biological dentistry has as its objective the diagnosis, treatment and optimum maintenance for his patients and their care. At all times, he applies his ongoing advanced training in the fields of dentistry and functional medicine, and from his experience, he attempts to go further than the best elements of conventional dentistry. He feels strongly that it is important to acknowledge, appreciate and consider that oral health and systemic diseases are inseparable from total-person wellness.
