At Hartrick Dentistry, we understand that oral health is deeply connected to your overall wellness. That’s why our dental care philosophy goes beyond treating teeth—we focus on preventing dental issues before they arise, while considering how oral health affects the rest of your body.

Located in Royal Oak and serving patients throughout Birmingham, MI, Hartrick Dentistry blends advanced preventive care with a holistic understanding of your unique health needs. Our goal is to help you maintain a healthy smile that supports your total well-being.

What Is Integrative Dental Medicine?

Integrative dental medicine combines modern dentistry with a broader view of your systemic health. This approach allows us to deliver personalized care that supports not only your teeth and gums, but also your heart health, immune function, and more.

By identifying underlying risk factors and using early detection tools, we can treat oral health issues before they impact your overall wellness. It’s a proactive strategy for patients who want more than just traditional dental checkups.

Why Choose Hartrick Dentistry’s Preventive Approach?

We take the time to understand your complete health history, lifestyle, and goals. Every treatment plan is tailored to your individual needs—not just your smile.

Our comprehensive preventive dentistry services include:

  • Regular cleanings and exams to keep your teeth and gums healthy.
  • Oral DNA testing to uncover genetic risks and customize care.
  • Nightguards for bruxism and TMJ to protect your bite and reduce jaw pain.
  • Athletic mouthguards to prevent sports-related dental injuries.
  • Periodontal care to stop gum disease in its tracks.

With the latest dental technology and a patient-first philosophy, we ensure you get the care you need before problems begin.

The Oral-Systemic Connection: Why It Matters

Your mouth is a gateway to your body, and imbalances in oral health can have far-reaching consequences. At Hartrick Dentistry, we focus on maintaining a healthy oral microbiome and addressing any signs of inflammation or infection early.

Did you know?

  • Gum disease has been linked to heart disease, stroke, diabetes, and more.
  • Harmful oral bacteria can enter your bloodstream and contribute to chronic inflammation.
  • Preventive dental care plays a crucial role in keeping your entire body in balance.

By approaching dentistry through this integrative lens, we help patients not just look better, but feel better and live healthier lives.
