Dr. Patel’s Natural Dentistry Approach
Safe
The staff at Green Dentistry work hard to ensure that patients are as safe as possible from the harmful substances found in traditional dental offices
Mercury & BPA-Free
Our office is mercury and BPA-free, level 10 for holistic, and has a state-of-the-art filtration system for amalgam filling removal. We’re proud to be able to treat patients from a whole health perspective using natural dentistry techniques.
SMART Certified
Dr. Patel is SMART Certified and uses the SMART Dentistry technique to safely remove amalgam fillings. When you have your mercury fillings removed by Dr. Patel, she will use mercury-absorbing rinses, barriers that reduce mercury exposure, and high-tech filters to absorb mercury vapor. This prevents you from ingesting or inhaling toxic substances while having your fillings removed. Then, your fillings will be replaced with biocompatible, tooth-colored resin.
Experienced Holistic Dentist in San Francisco
Dr. Patel is a member of multiple holistic dental associations, including the International Academy of Oral Medicine and Technology (IAOMT), the Holistic Dental Association (HDA), and the International Academy of Biological Dentistry & Medicine (IABDM). She has functional medical training and has years of experience working as a holistic dentist in the San Francisco, California area.
Ozone Therapy
Ozone therapy is an alternative treatment that uses natural oxygen to disinfect dental tissues. It's sterilizing properties kill harmful bacteria to stop tooth decay and treat infections. Ozone therapy is minimally invasive and painless and is applied successfully in patients with any number of oral health issues, including periodontal disease and TMD.

Meet Dr. Nammy Patel – Your Trusted Holistic Dentist in San Francisco
Focusing on esthetics, longevity, comfort, and health.
As a holistic dentist, best-selling author, and wellness expert, my approach to patient health extends beyond dental care. I strive to give my patients the tools to improve their overall health, working with each one to optimize their nutrition as well as their mental and physical well-being. I enjoy helping my patients become educated, empowered, active participants in their total wellness.
Why Holistic Dentistry Matters
At Green Dentistry, we’re holistic dentistry experts. As a whole health dentist, Dr. Patel has closely studied the relationship between oral and systemic health, and we work with naturopaths to ensure the technology, procedures, and products we use are safer for you than traditional dental solutions like mercury fillings and fluoride treatments.
How Ozone Therapy Can Help You
Ozone therapy has been used in medicine to treat infections and promote healing for over 100 years. In dentistry, the antibacterial properties of ozone are used to treat a number or oral health problems, including:
- Tooth decay
- Gum disease
- TMD symptoms
- Tooth sensitivity
- Oral infections
Ozone therapy is non-toxic, completely natural, and perfectly safe. It uses ozone molecules (O3) in gas, oil or liquid form to disinfect dental tissues and stop infections from spreading. Additionally, patients report less TMJ pain and reduced tooth sensitivity after undergoing ozone therapy.
With so many applications, ozone therapy is one of the most versatile tools we have to help our patients restore their oral health. If you have questions about ozone therapy and how it might benefit you, please contact our office to schedule a consultation with Dr. Patel.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does it mean to be a holistic dentist?
As a holistic dentist, I consider your entire physical and emotional health when preventing, diagnosing, and treating tooth and gum issues. I want to help you be healthy and have a smile you love. My office is a comfortable environment where we provide dental care that is beautiful, functional, and designed to last for years. We are also respectful of your time and use advanced dental technologies that are less invasive and require less follow-up care than many traditional treatments.
When you visit Green Dentistry, we will:
- Build a partnership based on your specific health needs
- Educate and empower you to participate in your dental care plan
- Help you achieve healthy teeth and gums for life!
At Green Dentistry, we use only safe, sterile, non-toxic, mercury-free/BPA-free, biocompatible & organic materials in your dental treatment and in our office environment.
What is a holistic root canal?
Traditionally, root canals use caustic chemicals to essentially “embalm” the inner tissue of a tooth, such as formaldehyde or a watered-down bleach solution. A holistic root canal may involve the use of ozone treatment, ultrasonic therapy, and lasers to kill bacteria inside the pulp in a way that is safe for the tooth and the rest of your body.
Are mercury fillings dangerous?
Yes. Mercury is a known toxin and can cause serious health problems! It should never be anywhere near your mouth. At Green Dentistry, we specialize in the safe removal of mercury fillings and can replace them with tooth-colored biocompatible composite fillings. These fillings are designed to look and function just like your natural teeth.
Who is a good candidate for holistic dentistry?
Holistic dentistry is a great match for almost every patient. Patients who have a sensitivity to chemicals or who simply want the most natural dental care available are excellent candidates for natural dentistry procedures. Dr. Patel will go over your whole health history and make a recommendation on what holistic dental procedures would help you the most.
Why is mercury-free dentistry so important?
Mercury is a toxin and should never be in your body, especially not in your mouth as part of a dental filling! As a holistic dentist and member of the International Academy of Medicine and Toxicology (IAOMT), Dr. Patel has studied the damage mercury and other toxins inflict upon the body. All of the materials used in dental treatments are non-toxic and fully biocompatible and she is trained in the safe removal of mercury amalgam fillings.
How will my natural dentist help my systemic health?
Dr. Patel will discuss your whole health with you, including but not limited to your oral health. She will recommend holistic treatments to help improve your oral and systemic health, such as probiotic supplementation, diet changes, sugar intake reduction, oil pulling, and other simple but effective changes you can make to naturally improve your health.

We look forward to meeting you and helping you care for your dental health.
