Functional Dental Medicine in Wilmington

Let Our Story Be Your Guide

Optimal Health and Wellness in Wilimington

Dr. Lewis Yu struggled with personal, persistent health issues just like you. His search for a viable, reasonable solution took him on a journey into the powerful world of functional medicine. What will your story be?

From The Doctor

Like you, my days (and some nights) were spent living in discomfort and searching for ways to live a more productive, healthy life. I felt that I was living minimally, when I really wanted to be living optimally!  Most of the doctors I saw in an attempt to become healthier told me there was nothing wrong with me. When I finally met with an integrative practitioner, I began to learn how to change my lifestyle for total health and optimal living.

I learned about:

• The importance of adding raw foods to our diet
• How enzymes affect our health
• The importance of staying fit and active
• How to add supplements to increase our vitality and wellness.

Sharing The Care

Once I realized how much better I felt and how much my quality of life had improved, I felt this was something I had to share. I care too much about my Wilmington friends and neighbors to keep them in the dark. The need was there in myself, in my team, and our family of patients. That’s when we decided that All About Smiles was up for the challenge of making a change.

Taking The Steps, Making The Change

Change does not happen overnight and patience is key. This same reasoning held true in integrating functional medicine into our practice. Here are the steps we took to make the change:

1. Cleared away toxins by removing the mercury from our team’s teeth and equipping our office to safely remove even the slightest trace of mercury vapor during removal.
2. Stopped using fluoride and other materials that could be harmful to your system, choosing instead to rely on bioidentical materials to repair and protect teeth.
3. Started practicing holistic dentistry to ensure that all our services worked in harmony with the body.
4. Researched and developed a detoxification system for mercury and other harmful dental materials.
5. Started offering green smoothies to our staff members and patients to further the health of our patients. We also added a juicer to our kitchen so our patients could refresh themselves with a healthy dose of pure goodness.
6. Began cared for our patients’ spirits as well as their bodies by treating them with gentleness and respect and by turning our dental office into an oasis of calm.

What The Future Holds

As our practice, philosophy, and knowledge continues to grow we are also expanding to include a full range of holistic strategic partners. They include:

• Chiropractors
• Acupuncturists
• Nutritionists
• Physical therapists
• Physical trainers
• Massage therapists
• Sleep centers
