Holistic or Biologic Dentistry : Future Alternative or Not

Abstract

Holistic dentistry is also called Progressive dentistry, biologic dentistry, or biocompatible dentistry. Holistic
dentistry is a new alternative branch of traditional dentistry where it deals with the unrecognized impact
of oral health on the overall health of the person. This new idea of dentistry strongly opposes some of
the treatment modalities of traditional dentistry. Although the concept and practise has brought about a
revolution but some of the complementary methods followed by holistic dentists under criticism.
