Detailed Introduction

The Pittsburgh Center for Holistic Dentistry is a dental practice located in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, with a strong focus on "holistic" or "biological" dentistry. This approach goes beyond simply treating dental problems in isolation, recognizing the profound connection between oral health and an individual's overall physical and emotional well-being. The practice is spearheaded by Dr. Tammy DeGregorio, who is noted for her advanced training and commitment to this integrated philosophy. A cornerstone of the Pittsburgh Center for Holistic Dentistry's philosophy is the use of biocompatible materials. Unlike traditional dentistry that might use materials like mercury-containing amalgam fillings, this practice explicitly states it is mercury-free and mercury-safe. They adhere to the Safe Mercury Amalgam Removal Technique (SMART) protocol, ensuring the safe removal of old mercury fillings to prevent patient and environmental exposure. Furthermore, the practice is fluoride-free, catering to patients who prefer to avoid fluoride in their dental care. The services offered extend beyond conventional dental care. They leverage modern technology such as CEREC 3D CAD/CAM dentistry, which allows for the design and fabrication of full porcelain crowns, inlays, and onlays in a single visit, enhancing patient convenience and efficiency. Their approach is characterized by minimally invasive procedures, aiming to preserve as much natural tooth structure as possible. Beyond specific treatments, the Pittsburgh Center for Holistic Dentistry places a significant emphasis on patient education. They strive to empower patients with knowledge about their oral health and its impact on their systemic health, enabling them to make informed decisions about their treatment options and overall well-being. This comprehensive perspective is reflected in their commitment to understanding each patient's individual needs and developing personalized treatment plans that support long-term health outcomes. The practice aims to create a clean, safe, and modern clinical environment, fostering a comfortable and welcoming atmosphere for patients seeking a whole-body approach to their dental care.

An amazing dental experience with a truly whole body healing focus. Worth every bit of the long-term investment. The full care team is top notch (Dr. Michele, Dr. Tammy, Nancy, Ashley, Marge, Taylor, Dr.

Alexis, Max and Abby) and treats each patient with a high-level of care and compassion. Super knowledgable and educates along the way. AND the materials and procedures they use are high-quality. I highly recommend PCHD!

I have been with Dr. Tammy for 10yrs and I am now mercury free for the first time in my life. I am also totally pain free! I would highly recommend a visit to Pittsburgh Center for Holistic Dentistry. It is clean, calm and comfortable in their new modern space. They have a wonderful attentive staff that makes you feel welcome and well cared for.

Dr. Tammy has done many crowns and fillings for me on site. Quick and friendly service. If I could give 10 stars I would!

After having several painful and terrifying dental appointments, I finally found this fantastic group of professionals. I mistakenly had a few Mercury fillings placed that affected my health, so I needed them replaced. I made an appointment quickly and I have no regrets. From the start, I was met with kind and compassionate providers who explained my treatment and made me feel at ease. They specialize in Mercury removal and follow specific protocols, so that patients have the least amount of Mercury exposure possible. I was also very pleased that they do not use flouride, a toxic chemical most dentists use.

Not once did I feel like I was being pushed in to a treatment and I was never talked down to. You'd be surprised at the amount of providers who can't get that right. The only drawback is that the price is higher than a conventional dentist's office. However, that will not stop me from coming back time and time again because of the exceptional level of care I received. So thankful!

I chose the Pittsburgh Center for Holistic Dentistry because I wanted to work with a holistic dentist that practiced safe amalgam removal. I was very impressed when I walked in the door. The office is warm and inviting and the staff is caring and compassionate. This group is beyond knowledgeable and their office and practices are state-or-the-art.

All the amazing doctors and incredible staff are constantly keeping up to date on the latest and safest technologies. They really seem to love their work and the happy and upbeat office reflects this attitude. You will be well taken care of!
