How a Holistic Approach to Dentistry Protects Your Peace of Mind

Dentist Showing Dental Treatment Options To Patient

We know that a visit to the dentist can sometimes cause a little anxiety. However, added stress is not something that anyone needs. That is why at the office of Dr. Harry Suekert, DDS, we practice a patient-friendly, holistic style of care. To us, treating the whole person includes making sure your visits are physically relaxing, mentally peaceful, and biologically safe for your body.

Find out more about how we support holistic health through calm, supportive visits. 

Calming the Stress Response

Have you ever noticed that when you are stressed at work or at home, you start clenching your jaw or waking up with tension headaches? Stress shows up in the mouth very quickly, and can contribute to bruxism or TMJ. 

Part of our holistic approach involves helping you identify stress-related habits. While it may take a long time to unwind a high stress response, we can start by protecting your smile right away. We can provide comfortable, low-profile custom night guards to cushion teeth and relax the overworked jaws. A simple mouthguard helps you wake up feeling refreshed, helping support your mood and  productivity. 

Choosing Gentle, Biocompatible Materials

Your body reacts to everything put inside it. That’s why we are highly selective about the dental materials we use to repair your smile. We prioritize metal-free options when possible, options for high-quality porcelain ceramics and tooth-colored composite resins that are highly compatible with your natural body chemistry. Choosing materials that mimic the natural strength of your teeth ensures gentle restorations that integrate into your whole-body health. 

A Judgment-Free Zone for Better Health

Health thrives in a supportive environment. Our Chattanooga dental team provides a judgment-free, relaxing experience. We listen to your concerns, answer your questions in plain English, and move at a pace that makes you feel safe. By taking the fear out of dental care, we make it easy for you to maintain a healthy smile that supports a happy, stress-free life.

What are our patients saying about us?

They are very friendly and welcoming and seem like a family at times. We get all of our cleanings and dental work done here. They are really good at estimating your cost after insurance so you know what procedures will cost you.

They always make sure I’m comfortable and never in pain, patting my shoulder if they can feel my tensions rise. They are the Angels of this office! And then there’s Dr. Suekert, his kindness and sincerity speak volumes and I can tell he’s passionate about what he does.

Extremely knowledgeable and thorough doctor. He took me through every option and didn’t rush anything. I feel much better informed. He suggested I finish my existing treatment plan with my other dentist before doing anything here.
