Kempter Holistic Dentistry takes a whole-body approach to addressing dental needs, often partnering with specialists, physicians, toxicologists, oral surgeons and sleep physicians to offer patients personalized comprehensive and collaborative care. Eric Kempter, DDS, joined his brother John’s practice in 2016 after previously working at a traditional dental office because he was excited to be able to focus on dental wellness. Eric has been a great asset to the team, and since he has started has been accredited through the International Academy of Oral Medicine and Toxicology (IAOMT).  He has also helped the office implement Invisalign, a way to move teeth and correct bite without the use of metal wires and brackets, and Ozone therapy, a treatment that reduces inflammation and helps control bacteria in the mouth.

The practice is accredited through IAOMT and follows their protocol for safe removal of mercury amalgam fillings. “We have built a family practice based on love and trust with our patients and our employees,” says John and Eric. “We focus on making sure that the materials we use in our dentistry are biocompatible. We spend dedicated time with our patients to educate them and help them make the best decisions for their dental health. Our staff and doctors make sure that your experience at our office is personalized to you and that you are in a positive and friendly environment. We want our patients to feel like family, and not just another procedure,” says John and Eric.

Other accreditations include the American Academy of Dental Sleep Medicine, CEREC mentorship and the International Congress of Oral Implantologists. “We provide wellness dentistry, and as the patient’s advocate, give them options to have optimal dental health for the rest of their life,” says John and Eric. Services include holistic dentistry; CEREC: one-visit dentistry; implants; dental hygiene; safe (mercury) amalgam removal; Invisalign; ozone therapy; and TMJD treatment.

At 6 p.m., December 13, Kempter Holistic Dentistry will present a lecture, The SMART Removal Process. There will be an upcoming seminar series starting in January.
