What Is Holistic Dentistry?
At Elements Dental, holistic dentistry means looking beyond individual teeth and considering how oral health fits into your overall health and wellbeing.
We recognize that the mouth is connected to the rest of the body. Research continues to demonstrate links between oral health and conditions such as cardiovascular disease, diabetes, chronic inflammation, sleep disorders, and other aspects of overall health.
For us, holistic dentistry means:
Looking for underlying causes, not just symptoms
Supporting prevention whenever possible
Using minimally invasive approaches when appropriate
Selecting biocompatible materials thoughtfully
Considering airway, bite, jaw function, and oral health together
Educating patients so they can make informed decisions
Coordinating care with other healthcare providers when beneficial
Holistic dentistry is not an alternative to modern dentistry.
It is comprehensive, evidence-informed dentistry that takes a broader view of health and wellness.
Why Patients Choose Holistic Dentistry

- Consider the connection between oral health and overall health
- Uses biocompatible materials whenever appropriate
- Focuses on prevention and education
- Provides minimally invasive treatment options
- Takes time to understand their health history and goals
- Offers comprehensive care in one location
At Elements Dental, these principles guide every recommendation we make.

Dr. Chow's Approach
"We treat people, not just teeth."
Dr. Chow's approach to dentistry has been shaped by decades of clinical experience and advanced study in areas such as dental implants, orthodontics, cosmetic dentistry, acupuncture, naturopathic medicine, integrative health, and energy medicine. This depth of training allows him to bring a uniquely expansive perspective to every patient he sees, tailoring his expertise to your specific needs so that your care remains coordinated, connected, and consistent from beginning to end.
He believes that exceptional dental care begins with understanding the whole person. He takes the time to listen, to understand your health history, and to learn what matters most to you. From there, he combines advanced dental care with thoughtful treatment planning and genuine patient education. Because every patient is unique, the best outcomes happen when you feel informed, heard, and involved in your own care.
While firmly grounded in evidence-based dentistry, Dr. Chow takes a broader view of health. He considers factors such as nutrition, inflammation, airway health, jaw function, stress, immune health, and overall well-being when developing treatment recommendations.
His goal is to help you understand the connections between your oral health and your overall health, so that you can make informed decisions that support long-term wellness and a better quality of life.
