At Ruther Family Dentistry, we focus on your entire health, beyond the oral cavity. Oral imbalances can manifest themselves in a variety of ways. 

The mouth-body connection has been shown throughout medicine. Oral bacteria enter our bloodstream through our mouths and cause problems in distant areas. Gum disease has be connected to heart disease, strokes, diabetes, osteoporosis, cancer, Alzheimer’s, obesity, and many other health issues. 

We perform a thorough new patient exam that discusses health and dental history in specific detail. Performing biological dentistry means looking at a complex system as one working organism. Our goal is to educate patients on the causes of problems rather than treating the symptoms. Additionally, we look at what dental materials are used and if they are compatible with our bodies. We coordinate Clifford Materials Reactivity Testing for over 4,000 dental material to check compatibility. 

Additionally, we provide ozone therapy which is a non-invasive way to treat a variety of dental conditions. It has applications in periodontal therapy, surgery, restorative dentistry and more. 

Our goal is to educate and empower our patients to take control and live healthy lives!
