History
With overall health in mind, Dr. Lewis Gross and our staff focus on our patients' total well-being, not just isolated problems. We believe that the entire human body operates dependently in all of its functions. Oral health problems can create a domino effect and impede the body's ability to function harmoniously. The goal of holistic dentistry is to provide thorough care, using biocompatible dental materials, minimally invasive procedures, and recommendations intended to prevent future disease, discomfort, and damage. By detecting symptoms that signify potential problems, our team can address issues before they escalate to cause further oral and overall health concerns.
