Fluoride-Free Dentistry in Newbury Park

Protecting Your Smile—Without the Risks

At BioDental Healing, we believe every material used in your mouth should support—not compromise—your overall health. That’s why we’ve made a clear, intentional choice: we do not use fluoride in our practice.

While fluoride is still widely promoted in conventional dentistry, emerging research and holistic principles suggest cause for concern, especially when it comes to long-term systemic exposure. We provide effective, scientifically sound alternatives that honor both your oral and overall health—because your body deserves better.

Why We Don’t Use Fluoride

Fluoride is often added to toothpaste, mouthrinses, and municipal water under the belief that it helps prevent cavities. But research increasingly shows that fluoride may come with real health risks, especially when absorbed into the body over time.

Potential Risks of Fluoride Exposure:

  • Disruption of the Pineal Gland:

    Fluoride accumulates in the pineal gland—the center of circadian rhythm, hormone regulation, and melatonin production. This can impact sleep, mood, and overall endocrine health.

  • Cognitive Development in Children:

    Studies (including from the National Toxicology Program) have linked early-life fluoride exposure to lower IQ and neurodevelopmental concerns. Children are especially vulnerable to overexposure during key growth stages.

  • Thyroid Suppression:

    Fluoride has been shown to interfere with iodine uptake and thyroid hormone regulation, potentially contributing to hypothyroidism and fatigue.

  • Skeletal Fluorosis and Bone Fragility:

    Excess fluoride may weaken bones and joints, increasing risk for micro-fractures and arthritis-like symptoms over time.

  • Dental Fluorosis:

    Ironically, too much fluoride during childhood can cause visible damage to enamel—white spots, pitting, and discoloration that can’t be reversed.

We believe these risks are unnecessary, especially when there are effective, non-toxic alternatives available.

What We Use Instead

We support a remineralization strategy that works with your body, not against it. Our fluoride-free philosophy includes:

  • Nano-Hydroxyapatite (nHA):

    A naturally occurring mineral that mimics the structure of enamel, helping to rebuild and strengthen teeth without toxicity. Used in Europe and Japan for decades, and fully biocompatible.

  • Dr. Jen’s Toothpaste (available in-office):

    A fluoride-free, nano-hydroxyapatite-based toothpaste we trust and offer in-office for optimal oral support.

  • Stellalife VEGA Oral Rinse:

    A homeopathic, alcohol-free rinse that reduces inflammation and supports natural healing—without fluoride or artificial chemicals.

  • Ozonated water and rinses:

    Used in-office during cleanings and treatments to naturally disinfect and support oral balance.
