Biological dentistry takes into consideration the cause-and-effect relationship between a patient's oral health and the health of the rest of the patient's body. The guiding philosophy of biological dentistry is that the health of the mouth and the body are one in the same. By seeking out and working to understand and treat the root cause illness, Dr. Foley helps her patients achieve health stability, wellness and reduce their need for treatment throughout life. The principles of biological dentistry can be applied to every phase of your treatment plan, from routine hygiene to more intensive treatments such as root canals and orthodontics.
