Integrative Dental Arts of WNY is a dental clinic located at 656 Elmwood Ave Suite 102, Buffalo, NY 14222. The clinic operates under a philosophy of natural healing and patient well-being, focusing on the connection between oral health and the body's overall health. They treat a wide range of conditions, including TMJ disorder, sleep apnea, and craniofacial growth and development disorders in both children and adults. The clinic's approach goes beyond traditional dentistry by considering how a patient's teeth, jaws, and breathing impact their nervous system and overall health. They specialize in a variety of treatments, including ALF (Advanced Lightwire Functional) therapy, which uses a simple oral appliance to interact with the nervous system to promote jaw growth and expansion. They also utilize various TMJ and sleep appliances to address issues like jaw pain, headaches, and sleep-related breathing disorders. The team is led by Dr. Julia Kagan, a general dentist who graduated from the University at Buffalo, School of Dental Medicine in 2004. Dr. Kagan has a unique background, with a certification in acupuncture and a deep focus on the fields of TMJ disorder, sleep dentistry, and ALF therapy. The clinic also has a treatment coordinator, Kim Horning, who has a background in health management, and a dental assistant, Jessica Tunis. Together, they aim to provide comprehensive care that aligns with the body's natural healing principles. They use cutting-edge technology, including various types of lasers, intraoral cameras, digital scanners, computerized bite analysis, and salivary diagnostics to provide precise and comfortable treatments.
