We are a health-focused, patient-centered dental practice. We are also holistically and biologically inclined in regard to the care that we offer. Holistic because we believe that the health of the mouth and our overall health cannot be separated. Biologic because we continually strive to find new and better ways to help individuals get and stay healthy, always seeking materials and techniques that are as biocompatible as possible while at the same time providing for durability, longevity, and conservatism. If patients are going to choose the foods they eat based on their nutritional value vs only those foods that they can chew, the chewing system is of critical importance. We are health-focused because we work with an established model of health. We know that a healthy mouth has no infection or inflammation in the gum and bone tissue around the teeth, no cracks holes, or openings in the teeth that can allow bacteria to enter the tooth, and a stable chewing system where the teeth, joints, muscles and bone work in harmony together. We work with our patients to the degree that they want to get healthy and help them achieve their goals. The great news is you don’t have to be perfect. We just need to be moving toward wellness and stop the mouth from breaking down. Unlike traditional medicine, where symptoms are treated with little regard to the cause, we are focused on the cause of the problem as much as repairing it. This way when something is fixed it does not begin to break down again. We are patient-centered because we put the patient in the middle and build the practice around them. We ask ourselves, “What kind of practice would we like our families to come to and receive care, knowing what we know today?” What has worked best is to put the patient first, the team second, and the doctor third. The doctor cannot win unless the patient and team win first. This creates the triple win. Since 2001, Dr. Segulyev has helped patients make the best decisions in their pursuit to become healthy, based on their goals and values. Utilizing the safest dental techniques and biocompatible materials, Dr. Segulyev works with each individual patient to improve overall well-being through sound oral health
