Holistic Dentistry Holistic dentistry approaches dental health from a whole body perspective—evaluating and treating oral health problems in the context of a patient’s overall health. It draws on nutrition, homeopathy, naturopathy, and other alternative approaches to ease such acutely painful chronic conditions as TMJ (Temporal Mandibular Joint Dysfunction). Emphasizing innovation, education, trust, and patient safety, the holistic dentist selects the treatment that maximizes the ability of the body to heal itself and minimizes any traumas already done to the body by invasive procedures, incompatible and toxic dental materials, and pharmaceutical agents. The Asclepeion Center is fortunate to benefit from a close association with Dr. Eugene Sambataro, founder of the Institute for Biological Dentistry, located in a facility adjacent to the Asclepeion Center’s Ellicott City office.
