Welcome to Swiss Holistic Dental, where we blend time-honored Swiss precision with natural, whole-body approaches to dental care. Led by Dr. A. J. Boyajian with over 25 years of experience, we’re here to help you achieve optimal oral health that supports your overall well-being.
Hello, I’m Dr. A. J. Boyajian, and I’ve dedicated the last 25 years to practicing dentistry that goes beyond just fixing teeth—it’s about nurturing your entire health. Think of me as your partner in wellness, much like I’d chat with you in the office: straightforward, caring, and focused on what’s best for you.
In traditional dentistry, we often treat symptoms in isolation, but here at Swiss Holistic Dental, we embrace a biological and holistic approach inspired by the renowned Swiss Biohealth Concept. This means we see your mouth as a gateway to your body’s overall health. For instance, issues like chronic inflammation in the gums can link to bigger problems such as heart disease or fatigue, because everything in your body is connected. That’s why we use biocompatible materials—things that work harmoniously with your body, avoiding toxins like mercury or harsh chemicals.
Whether you’re dealing with a simple cavity or something more complex like TMJ discomfort, my goal is to use gentle, natural methods to restore balance. Let’s work together to keep you smiling naturally!
Imagine dentistry that’s not just about drilling and filling, but about healing from the inside out. Holistic dentistry, also known as biological dentistry, treats your oral health as part of your whole-body system. We focus on prevention, using natural remedies and minimally invasive techniques to support your body’s own healing powers.
The “Swiss Way” draws from Switzerland’s leadership in biological medicine, where practices like metal-free ceramic implants and immune-boosting protocols are standard. For example, instead of traditional metal fillings that might release toxins over time, we opt for biocompatible restorations that are safe and durable. This approach can reduce risks of allergic reactions or systemic issues, promoting long-term health.

At Swiss Holistic Dental, we specialize in natural treatments that harness science and nature. Here’s a glimpse:
Your greatest exposure to mercury vapor from amalgam fillings occurs when they are removed, unless they are safely removed. There’s more to removing mercury fillings than just drilling them out and you should know what can be done to protect you. Having these fillings removed unsafely will expose you to extraordinarily high amounts of mercury, so it’s vital to your health to find a dentist who removes amalgams in a safe way.
There is well-documented evidence that links root canal treated teeth to systemic health issues, potential risks, and root canal dangers never discussed in conventional dental literature. Learn about root canal alternatives and treatment for compromised root-canal-treated teeth. Removing tainted root canals may potentially help reverse disease and prevent future health issues. A root canal is viewed differently between conventional dentists and biological dentists. Whether patients choose to avoid a root canal, remove a root canal (an extraction with PRF and ozone) and replace it with a zirconia dental implant or to follow a more conventional method, such as re-root-canal (a repeat root canal) the goal is to educate patients and readers and help them make the healthiest decision for their health and wellbeing.
C@vitations, also known as NICO (Neuralgia-Inducing C@vitational Osteonecrosis) or SICO (Simple Bone C@vitation), are areas of dead bone in the jawbone that result from a lack of blood flow. This can occur after a traumatic event, such as a tooth extraction, or due to chronic infection, like with root canals or periodontal disease.
Addressing c@vitations is crucial for overall health, as it can prevent potential systemic diseases and improve dental health. Seeking the expertise of a biological or holistic dentist, as well as a dental surgeon with experience in c@vitation surgery, is essential in addressing c@vitations effectively.
TMJ (temporomandibular joint) disorders can cause jaw pain, headaches, and even earaches—it’s like your jaw’s hinge is out of alignment. Holistically, we don’t just mask the pain; we address causes like stress, poor posture, or teeth grinding. Natural remedies include gentle jaw exercises (like the “scissor” partial opening to stretch muscles), heat or cold packs to relax tension, and massage therapy to improve blood flow. A TMJ splint or a MAGO, or what we call “Not a Nightguard”, can often address TMJ issues. We might also suggest lifestyle tweaks, such as mindfulness to reduce clenching or a soft diet to give your jaw a break. Many patients find relief without surgery or meds, regaining comfort in daily activities.
With so many dentists out there, why us? Simple: We’re committed to your long-term health, not quick fixes. Our patients often tell us they feel more energized and confident after treatments because we tackle the whole picture. Plus, Dr. Boyajian’s expertise, honed at the University of Pennsylvania and through years of advanced training in biological dentistry, ensures you’re in expert hands.
