Downers Grove Holistic Dentist

Dr. Karen Blair of Dentistry by Design is your Downers Grove Holistic Dentist.  Dr. Blair treats her patients by being mindful of the health of not only the mouth, but the whole body.

In today’s society, many people are more aware of what they are putting into their bodies and how it may affect their health. The same holds true when it comes to their dentist.  Some patients are concerned about the materials already in their mouth from previous dental procedures. Patients can rest assured that only safe substances are used in dental treatments by Dr. Blair.

Being a holistic dentist, Dr. Blair can safely remove any materials in your mouth that are potentially harmful.  These materials can be replaced with safe substances that do not affect the body negatively.

For example, for years people have had their teeth filled with the silver amalgam filling substance. Although the American Dental Association have stated that these fillings are safe, some patients would rather have the mercury based fillings removed.  Dentistry by Design is also a Downers Grove mercury-free dentist.  All the fillings Dr. Blair uses match the color of your teeth, making them nearly invisible. They are also safe being free of any mercury substances.
