Biological Dentistry in Indianapolis

At Indianapolis Dentistry, Dr. Aatif Ansari and Dr. Nicole Quint and his team provide care that goes beyond just treating teeth. More and more patients are seeking a biological dentist, someone who considers how oral health impacts the whole body. While you may hear terms like holistic or biomimetic dentistry used as well, they all share a common goal: safe, conservative treatment that supports both your smile and your overall wellness.

Our Indianapolis practice already follows what patients expect from a biological dentist, including mercury-safe protocols, ozone therapy, and minimally invasive treatment options. If you're searching for a biological dentist in Central Indiana, you're in the right place.

What Is Biological Dentistry?

Biological dentistry (also called biocompatible or holistic dentistry) is a health-conscious approach to dental care that considers how materials, techniques, and oral conditions affect your overall body. It's not just about treating cavities or restoring teeth. It's about how those treatments interact with your immune system, inflammation levels, and long-term health.

Both Dr. Ansari and Dr. Quint follow safety guidelines from the International Academy of Oral Medicine and Toxicology (IAOMT), including certified mercury-safe protocols for removing amalgam fillings and the use of non-toxic, biocompatible materials.

How It Differs From Traditional Dentistry

Where traditional dental care focuses mainly on fixing teeth and gums, biological dentistry expands the scope to include:

  • Safe Amalgam Removal - using IAOMT-approved safeguards to protect you and the environment
  • Biocompatible Materials - chosen based on your body’s compatibility and long-term safety
  • Ozone Therapy - used to reduce bacteria, support gum health, and encourage natural healing
  • Conservative Techniques - preserving natural tooth structure whenever possible
  • Whole-Body Awareness - recognizing how oral health connects to systemic wellness, from inflammation to autoimmune conditions

What to Expect at a Biological Dentistry Visit

From your first visit, you’ll notice a different approach. Whether you’re in for a routine cleaning or exploring a treatment plan, our focus is on care that supports your body, not just your teeth.

You can expect:

  • A full review of your health history
  • Conversations about material sensitivities or allergies
  • Nutritional and lifestyle-based preventive guidance
  • Optional therapies like ozone, herbal rinses, or low-radiation digital imaging
  • If needed, safe amalgam removal following IAOMT standards

Who Benefits Most from Biological Dentistry?

Biological dentistry is helpful for anyone who wants a safer, more personalized approach to dental care. It can be especially beneficial for people who:

  • Have autoimmune or chronic inflammatory conditions
  • Are chemically sensitive or allergic to certain metals
  • Are concerned about mercury fillings or metal-based restorations
  • Want dental care that aligns with their overall wellness goals

You don’t have to follow an alternative lifestyle to benefit. Many of our patients just want smarter, safer choices for their oral and overall health.

How Holistic & Biomimetic Dentistry Fit In

You might also hear the terms holistic or biomimetic dentistry used. At Indianapolis Dentistry, they work together within our overall philosophy:

  • Biological dentistry focuses on whole-body health and safe dental materials
  • Holistic dentistry emphasizes a broader, patient-centered view that may include natural therapies
  • Biomimetic dentistry involves preserving tooth structure by mimicking the natural design and strength of teeth

These approaches overlap, and we draw from all three to create care plans that support your health and comfort.

Why Patients Choose Indianapolis Dentistry

Dr. Ansari and Dr. Quint share a commitment to using the safest available materials and techniques while respecting your unique health needs. Whether you're here for a simple filling or a more complex restorative plan, you'll receive care that fits your values and priorities.
