At MyDentistForLife, we believe your oral health and your overall health are deeply connected. Dr. Saba Rizvi offers mercury-free, biocompatible, and minimally invasive dental care that respects your whole body.
Biological dentistry consultation available this week.
Biological dentistry takes a whole-body approach to your oral health. It recognizes that the materials we use, the treatments we choose, and the way we care for your teeth all have an impact far beyond your mouth.
At MyDentistForLife, Dr. Saba Rizvi uses only biocompatible, non-toxic materials and follows protocols designed to protect your immune system, your gut, and your overall wellbeing throughout every procedure.
Everything we do at MyDentistForLife is guided by these foundational principles. They shape every material we choose, every technique we use, and every decision we make for your care.
We only use materials that are proven safe and compatible with the human body. We never place anything in your mouth that could cause systemic inflammation or immune reactions.
Our office has been completely mercury-free for years. We do not place amalgam fillings, and we safely remove existing mercury fillings using the SMART protocol.
We preserve as much natural tooth structure as possible. Less drilling, fewer chemicals, and gentler techniques mean faster healing and better long-term outcomes.
We understand that your mouth is connected to your whole body. Gum disease, infected root canals, and toxic materials can all affect your heart, brain, and immune system.
We respect your right to choose. Fluoride-free alternatives are available for all preventive treatments, without judgment. We discuss every option with you fully.
You are always in control. We explain every material, every procedure, and every option before we begin. Your informed agreement comes first, every single time.
Every service at MyDentistForLife is delivered with your whole health in mind. From routine cleanings to complex restorations, we apply biological principles to every treatment.
If you have old mercury amalgam fillings, we remove them safely using the SMART (Safe Mercury Amalgam Removal Technique) protocol to minimize your exposure during removal.
We replace damaged or decayed teeth using tooth-colored, metal-free composite resins and ceramic materials that are biocompatible and aesthetically natural.
Our crowns and bridges are made from zirconia and ceramic materials, free from metal alloys that can cause sensitivity, allergic reactions, or systemic concerns.
Ozone is a powerful, natural antimicrobial agent. We use ozone therapy to treat decay, gum disease, and infections without the need for harsh chemicals or antibiotics.
All our preventive treatments including cleanings, sealants, and fluoride alternatives are delivered without the use of mercury-containing or chemically toxic products.
We screen for connections between your oral health and systemic conditions like heart disease, diabetes, and hormonal imbalances, and work with your broader healthcare team when needed.
Mercury amalgam removal is one of the most requested biological dentistry services we provide. The SMART protocol was developed by the International Academy of Oral Medicine and Toxicology (IAOMT) to minimize patient exposure to mercury vapor during removal.
We review your existing fillings, discuss your health history, and create a personalized removal plan that prioritizes your safety.
You are fully covered with protective barriers, a rubber dam is placed, and a special high-volume evacuation system removes mercury vapors throughout the procedure.
We remove the amalgam in large pieces rather than grinding it down, dramatically reducing the amount of mercury vapor released.
Once the mercury filling is removed, we replace it with a tooth-colored composite or ceramic restoration that is safe, durable, and completely metal-free.

Biological dentistry is an approach to dental care that considers the impact of dental materials and treatments on your whole body. It prioritizes biocompatible, non-toxic materials, minimally invasive techniques, and an understanding of how oral health connects to systemic health. We avoid mercury, BPA, and other materials that may cause inflammation or immune responses.
Yes, when done properly using the SMART protocol. This technique minimizes the release of mercury vapor during removal through protective barriers, rubber dams, and high-volume evacuation. Dr. Rizvi is trained in this protocol and follows every step to keep you as safe as possible during the procedure.
We use tooth-colored composite resins and ceramic restorations that are free from mercury, BPA, and metal alloys. These materials are biocompatible, durable, and natural-looking. For crowns and bridges, we use zirconia and porcelain, which are the most biocompatible options available in modern dentistry.
Many biological dentistry treatments such as composite fillings, cleanings, exams, and crowns are covered by most major dental insurance plans including Aetna, Cigna, Guardian, Humana, MetLife, and more. Some specific treatments like ozone therapy may not be covered. Call us at (954) 637-7173 and our team will verify your benefits before your appointment at no charge.
Traditional dentistry focuses primarily on treating your teeth and gums. Biological dentistry takes a broader view. It considers how dental treatments and materials can affect your immune system, gut health, cardiovascular health, and overall wellbeing. It also emphasizes prevention, minimal intervention, and the use of only non-toxic, biocompatible materials throughout your care.
