Our WHY

At Van Hemert Family Dentistry, we believe your mouth is deeply connected to your whole-body health. We’re not just here to fix teeth—we’re here to help you and your family thrive.

This journey is personal. Our shift toward functional and biological dentistry started with our own story—one filled with airway challenges, chronic health struggles, and the life-changing impact of root-cause healing. It opened our eyes to the power of early intervention, nutrition, and the incredible connection between oral health and overall wellbeing.

Now, we’re committed to walking alongside our patients with compassion, curiosity, and a whole-person approach. Whether we’re supporting your child’s airway or simply making your dental visit a little less stressful—we’re here for it all.

Because when we care for the whole person, we don’t just change smiles—we change lives.

TREATMENT OPTIONS

General + Preventative Dentistry

Preventative dental care is the cornerstone of our practice, ensuring you maintain a healthy smile. Whether you’re young or young at heart, our comprehensive dental care is tailored to meet every family member’s needs.

Comprehensive Exams + Cleanings

More than just a checkup—our functional approach looks at the whole picture, helping you prevent issues before they start and supporting overall wellness through personalized dental care.

Digital X-rays & 3D CBCT Imaging

We believe advanced imaging is essential. Our digital X-rays and 3D CBCT scans provide a clearer view of your teeth, jaw, and airway—critical for accurate diagnosis and whole-body health.

Periodontal Screenings & Maintenance

Gum health impacts your whole body. Our screenings help catch periodontal disease early—protecting not just your smile, but your heart, brain, and overall systemic health.

Fluoride Free Alternatives

We offer safe, effective fluoride-free options—like hydroxyapatite—to strengthen enamel and support remineralization, honoring your choice for a more natural approach to oral and whole-body health.

Oral Cancer Screenings

A quick, gentle screening can offer peace of mind. We include it as part of your routine care—because early detection supports better outcomes and your long-term health.

Airway Screenings

We assess airway health as part of whole-body care. Especially in kids, early screening helps guide facial growth, support proper breathing, and determine if palate expansion or pediatric ortho may help.
