WHAT IS TOTAL BODY WELLNESS?
Total body wellness is an approach to dentistry that promotes health and wellness. The basic principles of total body wellness include:
- Proper nutrition: for the prevention and reversal of degenerative dental disease.
- Fitness and healthy lifestyle: to promote proper body function, blood flow, and the reduction of inflammation.
- Safe dental materials: including the avoidance and elimination of toxins in dental materials.
- Treatment and prevention of bite problems: dental malocclusion leads to several physical imbalances.
- Treatment and prevention of gum disease: periodontal disease is linked to myriad systemic health issues.
HOW DOES TOTAL BODY WELLNESS
AFFECT TOTAL WELL-BEING?
Healthy teeth and a strong oral structure give you the ability to speak, eat, and function comfortably every day. Research increasingly finds that oral health isn’t just a passive component of general health, but an active driver of your overall well-being.
The condition of your mouth is intrinsically entwined with your cardiac, respiratory, and cognitive health. For example, without neuromuscular dentistry services, a misaligned jaw can cause chronic headaches, eye pain, ear ringing, and neck, shoulder, and back aches. Other mouth-body health connections include:
- Gum disease linked to heart disease, diabetes, stroke, and more
- Oral air flow linked to sleep apnea
- Bio-incompatible dental fillings
- Oral cancer
Dr. Tara Hardin is a charter member of the International Association of Mercury Safe Dentists (IAMSD), and she is committed to providing her patients with safe, metal-free fillings.
She also helps many of her Cincinnati patients replace their old amalgam (silver) fillings with tooth-colored composite fillings. Replacing old metal fillings benefits your general health in many ways, including:
- Reducing dental fractures.
- Keeping your mouth mercury-free.
- Making other oral health symptoms more easily identifiable.

OUR COMMITMENT TO YOU
Whether addressing tooth decay, gum disease, or jaw alignment, the experienced dentists at Hardin Advanced Dentistry are passionate about improving your overall well-being through safe dental practices. We firmly believe that the mouth is an excellent barometer for systemic health. The state of your gums, teeth, and tongue are a window to the biochemical condition of your body.
We encourage you to include regular dental exams into your health regimen, brush and floss at least twice a day, and rinse with water after every meal. Beyond that, we strongly suggest that you eat a well-balanced diet, get plenty of exercise and restful sleep, and avoid alcohol and tobacco.
It’s important to know that your dentist cares about your entire wellness. Our total body wellness approach values healthy, lifelong relationships with our Cincinnati patients, not just transactional, reactive procedures. To learn more about how we can help you, contact Dr. Tara Hardin today by calling (513) 216-2935 or by completing the form on this page to schedule an appointment. We welcome patients from Mason and Cincinnati, Ohio, as well as the surrounding areas.
