At Dental Healing Arts, we believe a beautiful smile is about more than just teeth. It’s the harmony between your smile, facial structure, skin, and overall expression. Our “Whole Smile” philosophy recognizes that the lips, cheeks, jawline, and surrounding skin all play a role in how your smile is seen and how you feel when you share it.

Botox can help soften tension, smooth fine lines, relax overactive muscles, and create balance throughout the face, allowing your smile to appear more refreshed, natural, and confident. By looking at the full picture, not just the teeth, we’re able to create results that feel subtle, healthy, and uniquely you ✨

Part 3 of Dr. Ilona’s holistic product recommendations 🌱

For patients who experience anxiety, especially before dental visits, Dr. Ilona often recommends Quicksilver GABA + L-Theanine. This supplement combines a highly bioavailable form of GABA with L-Theanine to help support a calm, relaxed nervous system state from within.

What she appreciates most is the clean formulation and how it helps patients feel more grounded and at ease without feeling sedated or foggy. It is designed to gently support the body’s natural ability to regulate stress and promote calm from the inside out.

Ozone therapy is an important part of biologic dentistry at Dental Healing Arts 🌿

We use ozone in both gas and water form to help disinfect the oral environment by targeting harmful bacteria, fungi, and pathogens while preserving healthy tissue and the natural microbiome. It is also used in nasal applications, especially for patients dealing with chronic sinus infections, to help reduce microbial load and support clearer, healthier airway function.

Ozone is commonly incorporated during cleanings, restorative procedures, and gum treatments to reduce bacteria, support healing, and create a more balanced oral environment 🦷

In biologic dentistry, the goal is not just to treat symptoms, but to support the body’s ability to restore and maintain balance.

Many symptoms patients experience can be linked to something they cannot see or feel, which is why we evaluate for cavitations 🌿

At Dental Healing Arts, we use 3D CBCT scans to assess the jawbone and identify areas where previous extractions may not have healed properly and hidden infection may be present.

When cavitations are detected, we use a biologic protocol that may include ozone therapy and regenerative support to help disinfect and promote healing 🦷

If left untreated, symptoms can continue and may impact overall health, which is why looking deeper is so important in biologic dentistry.

Part 2 of Dr. Ilona’s recommended products: probiotics 🌿

Dr. Ilona often recommends Bristle and BioGaia oral probiotics for supporting oral health, along with Pendulum probiotics for gut health.

Probiotics are essential because they help maintain a balanced microbiome by supporting the beneficial bacteria that naturally protect your body. Instead of focusing only on eliminating harmful bacteria, the goal is to strengthen and stabilize the good bacteria so they can keep the system in balance.

In the mouth, this balance can support healthier gums, fresher breath, and reduced inflammation. In the gut, probiotics play a key role in digestion, immune function, and overall systemic health. Because the oral microbiome and gut microbiome are closely connected, improving one often supports the other 🦷🌿

This is why targeted oral and gut probiotics are an important part of a biologic, whole body approach to health.

What is a biological dental cleaning and how is it different from a standard cleaning? 🦷

At Dental Healing Arts, a cleaning goes beyond just removing plaque. We focus on supporting the health of your entire oral environment. That includes using ozone water for its antimicrobial properties, gentle irrigation to flush bacteria from below the gumline, and natural agents like bentonite clay and calcium to help detoxify and remineralize.

The goal is not just a “clean” feeling, but a balanced, healthy mouth that supports your gums, teeth, and overall wellness 🌿

Because prevention should work with your body, not against it.
