Aviara Oral Health in Los Alamitos
Holistic oral health
Your oral microbiome is part of your whole-body health. Aviara Oral Health combines biological dentistry with minimally invasive therapies to protect both.
Biological dentistry
The mouth reflects the health of the whole body. Biological dentistry considers how the teeth, gums, jaw, oral microbiome and dental materials may affect overall health, and favors thoughtful, minimally invasive care.
Inflammation, microbial imbalance, stress and nutrition often show up in the mouth first. Our care is unhurried, preventive and educational, so you understand what your body is telling you.
How we treat it
A visit begins with a full evaluation of the teeth, gums, oral environment and any areas of inflammation or imbalance. Your plan may include preventive support, minimally invasive treatment, microbiome-focused care and restorative options.

Questions we often hear
What is biological dentistry?
A whole-body approach to oral care. It considers how the teeth, gums, jaw, oral microbiome and dental materials may affect overall health, and favors minimally invasive treatment.
How does oral health affect the rest of the body?
Inflammation and imbalance in the mouth can influence the immune system and other areas of the body, so caring for the gums, teeth and oral microbiome is part of long-term wellness.
What are biocompatible dental materials?
Materials chosen with the body’s overall response in mind. They restore teeth with strength, function and a natural appearance while supporting whole-body health.
What is SMART removal?
A protective approach to removing materials such as mercury amalgam fillings. It uses specific safety measures to reduce exposure during removal.
How can the oral microbiome affect dental health?
The oral microbiome is the community of bacteria and other microorganisms in the mouth. In balance, it supports healthy teeth and gums. Disrupted, it can contribute to decay, gum inflammation and bad breath.
