Whether you are new to the Lake Leelanau area or simply searching for a dentist for your family, Lisa Siddall, DDS is the healthiest choice for you. Dr. Siddall and Dr. Burke's approach to holistic dentistry means they care about your overall wellness, not just your teeth!
Dr. Lisa Siddall has been a practicing dentist since 1993 and always had a desire to build a holistic family practice near the Traverse City, MI area. Her dream became a reality in 1998 when she opened her Lake Leelanau dental office.
Holistic dentistry is a naturally focused approach that takes into consideration a person's overall physical and emotional state in order to promote his or her optimal wellness. Our goal is to create a welcoming environment that encourages our patients to live the healthiest lives possible. Regardless of your background, Dr. Siddall and Dr. Burke provide a unique outlook compared to the way youve experienced dentistry in the past.
In creating her holistic practice, Dr. Siddall was empowered to focus on total body wellness. On top of providing the conventional care you expect from your dentist, she takes into consideration each patients medical background, current health conditions, and risk factors that influence the health of their smiles. She implements a variety of high tech, holistic dental techniques, including:
We are conveniently located to serve our patients from communities like Glen Arbor, Maple City, Cedar, Solon, Bingham, Peshawbestown, Leland, Omena and Northport. We are one of the only holistic dentists that you will find outside of Traverse City and Northern Michigan areas.
Growing up, Lisa Siddall originally had her mind set on becoming a family physician. After one of her college classmates encouraged her to look into dentistry, Lisa finally found her true calling. She shadowed several dentists in Marthas Vineyard and found the combination of science and aesthetic creativity in dentistry to be exactly what she was looking for in a career.
After receiving her undergraduate degree in biology from Colgate University, Dr. Siddall attended dental school at the University of Michigan. In 1993, she graduated with high honors, and was ranked in the top 10% of clinical dental students.
During her first few years of practice, Dr. Siddall worked in a denture care clinic as an associate dentist. She gained extensive experience in denture therapy, partials and dental implant restorations before opening her own private Lake Leelanau holistic dental practice in 1998.
As the mother to a son with autism, Dr. Siddall is extremely knowledgeable on holistic care for patients with special needs. She has done extensive study on toxins in dental materials, as well as research on mercury and fluoride. Her goal as both a mother and an oral health care provider is to provide safe, whole body wellness services to her patients.
I love the fact that as a dentist, I can have an impact on someones health and frankly, their perception of life through their smile. My utmost concern is for my patients to have a positive and painless experience in my care. I am invested in people and I am truly blessed to be able to work with my hands and have countless interactions with amazing people every day. Erik R. Burke, DDS, GPR
