A Remarkable Non-Surgical Gum Therapy Program: Without “cutting up your gums,” we can predictably get rid of bleeding and receding gums while controlling the damage that periodontal disease does to your mouth and body. Gum disease is not a laughing matter. 90% of the population is walking around with it without a plan to get rid of it. Bacteria find a home in your gums and leave a mark not only in your mouth, but in your body. Our gum therapy is one of the most thorough and effective programs out there. It is all-natural and doesn’t include antibiotics or taking pharmaceutical drugs. If you have a problem with gum disease or if you’re not sure, take a simple test. Floss all of your teeth BELOW the gumline. If you have one spot that bleeds, then you DO have gum disease. DID YOU KNOW… that at the bottom of the pocket that surrounds your teeth (aka periodontal pocket) there’s a barrier that keeps all the dangerous bugs out of your body. It is one of the most important barriers to protect us from the harmful environment outside our bodies. DID YOU KNOW… that the barrier we just spoke of is only five cells thick! Imagine that. If that wall breaks down, you are in deep trouble: you are now exposing your internal workings of a magnificent system (your body) to the hazards of the environment. Alert: Gum disease breaks down this barrier.

The Safest Mercury Removal Services with our Patient Protection Protocol: We minimize your exposure to toxic mercury vapors by utilizing the latest and greatest mercury ionizers, isolation practices, and dental techniques.

At our holistic dental practice in Round Rock, we use the latest and most technologically advanced equipment. Part of our advanced “toolset” is Sirona’s new CEREC AC unit (as well as the new milling unit). While that may just sound like a fancy way to increase prices, it’s actually much more. Ten years ago, as a new biologic dentist, I began looking at the MSDS (material data safety sheets) for the crowns and filling materials we were using. I was shocked to discover that most of them had the potential to cause cancer! This is why I love using Cerec. We can find out what crown or filling material is safe or least reactive for the patient with a serum compatibility test and then can place the material in our Cerec to assure that the patient receives exactly what is safe for them. There is no middle man that can change the material. It is impossible for a patient or a dentist to look at a dental crown and visually tell what material it is made of. For the most part, they all look the same. It’s like water: it all looks the same but there are varying degrees of purity and safety based on what it is made of and where it is sourced. It’s the same with dental crowns. So what is CEREC? How can CEREC help you, the patient? Why should you choose a CEREC doctor? I’ll try to answer those questions and more, below.

Dental: At TDH, Huggins-Protocol based “dental revisions” are performed according to strict guidelines concerning the specifics of the Huggins Protocol (vitamin C infusions, acupressure, sequential removal based on charge, etc). This protocol was designed to be used: A) in conjunction with all mercury and other toxic base metal (aluminum, nickel, etc.) removal, B) in conjunction with the surgical removal of teeth that have been treated with root canal therapy, and C.) in the surgical treatment or curettage of areas of necrotic bone called cavitation lesions. We also offer biologic, integrative hygiene where no toxic chemicals or products are used in the mouth, and the actual factors that lead to periodontal disease are tracked before diseases ever begin. We use compatible dental materials and compatible surgical grafting materials (platelet-rich fibrin) and perform all of our routine general dental care (fillings, crowns) with the safest possible, most compatible materials commercially available. Neural and Ozone therapy are performed in conjunction with all applicable restorative and/or surgical procedures. All dental work utilizes ozone gas, and all surgical procedures utilize ozone gas and ozone water. No higher level of cleanliness or safe, natural microbial disinfection exists. Pharmaceutical (IV conscious sedation)and non-pharmaceutical options for sedation and anxiety control (homeopathic medicine, CDB oil, etc.) are available. Additionally, most medicines used in the practice are the safest available in the world. For example, homeopathic injectables and other bio-regulatory medicines are routinely incorporated into the patients care to lessen pain and enhance their unique outcomes and results, and have negative side effects many thousand times less than over-the-counter analgesics, like Advil or Tylenol. All patients are given options to approach care with a multi-disciplinary approach, including but not limited to acupuncture, hydro-colon therapy, chiropractic care, massage therapy, muscle-testing and nutritional assessments, iridology, and other potentially helpful complementary therapies. Dr. Carpenter will make recommendations as appropriate. The best way to start a dental health improvement process with Dr. Carpenter is to schedule for a comprehensive exam where you will set goals, and an individualized treatment plan will be created based on those goals. Neural Therapy: Besides its application for the indication of promoting healthy nervous system function and preventing and/or correcting dysautonomia, Dr. Carpenter can also use Neural Therapy to treat specific problems. He can also use it to offer support for: headache’s (migraines and other), neck pain (acute, chronic injury and post-surgical), sinus (allergy and chronic/acute sinus infection), neuralgia (trigeminal neuralgia, tinnitus), scars (3rd molar and head/neck after surgery or trauma), thyroid injections (to treat an array of different thyroid diseases, hypo and hyper), tonsil injections (and post-tonsil removal), brain-toxin draining procedures through activation of the glial-lymphatic system, scavenging metals and resetting autonomic ganglia associated with metal removal and surgical procedures and many other applications of segmental therapy that Dr. Carpenter uses for liver, kidney, lungs, brain, etc. This treatment can also be used to help increase salivary production and output but “resetting” the major salivary glands… sometimes with ozone (salivary enhancement). The best way to see how neural therapy can help improve your health is to schedule a Neural Therapy consultation with Dr. Carpenter . This appointment includes a dental panoramic radiograph if you are not an existing dental patient. A panoramic x-ray is required for a neural therapy assessment as many things that disrupt the normal, ideal function of the nervous system occur in the head and neck. Ozone Therapy: Pain, Regenerative, Preventive, Immune Building, Anti-Infective, Allergy Therapy: Dr. Carpenter routinely uses ozone therapy with all dental procedures, restorative or surgical, because of its miraculous properties for stopping inflammation. In addition, with his existing dental patients, he will occasionally offer ozone therapy in the form of pre and post-conditioning… or care designed to assist the body in having its best healing outcome. Dr. Carpenter also performs the following ozone therapy’s in the office: Ear and nasal insufflation for treating colds, allergies, and sinus infections because of its natural anti-viral, antibacterial, anti-fungal/mold, and anti-parasitic properties. Nasal insufflation (colds, allergies, sinus therapies), Major Autohemotherapy (50-60cc), Minor Autohempotherapy (2-4cc), rectal insufflation (250-300cc), vaginal insufflation (1250-1500 cc), ear insufflation (8-15 minutes). There are also some forms of antibiotic-resistant forms of staph and strep that can only be killed with ozone. Occasionally limb bagging with ozone is employed for treating non-healing skin infections. Long story short, Ozone, appropriately used, can help offer amazing healing results! The best way to see how ozone therapy can improve your life is to take home and read an ozone information packet and/or schedule an Ozone Therapy consultation with Dr. Carpenter. Dr. Carpenter is an accredited member of the AAOT (American Academy of Ozone Therapists) and has an FDA supported research grant which gives him the legal right to perform oral and systemic ozone therapies as they relate to the patient’s dental care, and as are supported by his training. For example, when working with and removing immune-retarding metals, like mercury, from a patient, or when you perform surgery on a patient, and there is wound healing, it is logical to integrate IV vitamin C infusion therapy or ozone therapy into the procedure, as both have been shown in the research to help boost healing and the human immune system. We only use natural medicines that compliment the natural healing process, and most of the time we are just offering logical, integrative options that help offset the negative effects of the necessary restorative or surgical dental procedure.

General Dentistry General Dentistry: Yes… we still do your everyday general dentistry procedures like crowns, fillings, bridges, and cleanings. We do, however, differ in that we look at the bigger picture. We never want to do something that may seem good for your teeth but bad for your body.
