What Is Biological Oral Surgery?
Biological oral surgery is a form of dental care that aligns with your body’s natural healing systems. It differs from traditional oral surgery by prioritizing biocompatibility, minimally invasive techniques, and whole-body health over routine protocols. Dr. Cornelius uses advanced diagnostic tools and safer materials to reduce systemic toxicity, inflammation, and long-term complications.
Everything we do is guided by one question: How can we protect the patient’s overall health while achieving the best surgical outcome?
Key Principles of Biological and Holistic Oral Surgery:
🦷 1. Biocompatible Materials
We avoid metals and chemicals that may disrupt your immune system or contribute to chronic inflammation. From sutures to bone grafts, every material is carefully chosen to support healing without burdening your body.
🌿 2. Safe Extractions with a Biological Focus
When a tooth needs to be removed—especially wisdom teeth or failed root canals—Dr. Cornelius ensures all infected tissue and periodontal ligament remnants are thoroughly cleared. This reduces the risk of cavitations and encourages proper bone regeneration.
💨 3. Ozone Therapy
Ozone, a natural antimicrobial gas, is used during and after surgery to sterilize tissues, reduce pain, and speed up healing. It’s a gentle yet powerful way to support your body’s natural recovery process.
🔬 4. Advanced Imaging with Minimal Radiation
We use digital 3D cone beam imaging (CBCT) to get a precise view of your oral structures, all with ultra-low radiation exposure. This allows Dr. Cornelius to plan your procedure safely and accurately while minimizing risk.
🛡 5. Biological Detox Support
Because your body may release toxins during or after oral surgery, we offer guidance on pre- and post-operative detox protocols, including nutritional supplementation and lymphatic support to optimize healing and reduce systemic stress.
Surgical Procedures Offered
Dr. Cornelius provides a range of oral surgery services, including:
- Wisdom Tooth Removal
Done with extreme care to preserve bone and nerve integrity, using natural therapies to reduce swelling and downtime. - Tooth Extractions (including infected root canal teeth)
We never just “pull” a tooth—we remove all infection and perform site disinfection with ozone to prevent chronic issues. - Cavitation Surgery
If you’ve had teeth extracted in the past and suffer from unexplained fatigue, immune problems, or jaw pain, you may have jaw cavitations. Dr. Cornelius specializes in identifying and cleaning these hidden infections. - Dental Implant Removal (Failed or Metal Implants)
If you’ve reacted poorly to titanium implants or suspect a systemic issue, Dr. Cornelius offers safe removal and ceramic implant options.
