We customize each treatment plan to our patients individual needs. This allows us to use materials that are unreactive therefore avoiding any interactions with their immune response. We do not take the introduction of dental materials into a patients body lightly. We are designed to heal ourselves and the materials used should facilitate this.

We are able to treat all of your dental needs: Holistic Dentistry, Dental Implant Center, Safe Amalgam Removal, Porcelainfillings, TMJ Dentist services, Holistic Orthodontics, Oral Surgery, DNA Appliance Therapy and Cosmetic Dentistry.

Our natural and holistic dental treatments ensure that your healthy smile doesnt have to come at the expense of your overall health. For those who fear the dentist, Our Sedation Dentist can offer Sleep Dentistry and Sedation Dentistry. Dental Sedatives may be used by our Sedation Dentist in cases where there is dental anxiety, difficulty getting numb or extensive dental needs.

At Natural Dentist Associates we use the latest state-of-the-art dental equipment. Our x-rays are digital which reduce radiation by as much as 95%.

We use BPA-free products in our green, toxin-free office. We offer safe removal service for mercury-containing amalgam fillings and utilize state of the art air filtration equipment and extra suction protection for your safety. We also work with naturopathic physicians and other like-minded holistic health practitioners.

Very thorough, competent dental care. Courteous and friendly. Puts only positive materials into fillings. Costs very high. I wish cost could be more reasonable.

Staff are friendly and thorough in their explanations. Kelsy is an amazing dental hygienist and is very personable. Dr Typograph is the best and always explains what and why she is doing what she does during her exams. Thanks to all the staff!!

I chose this practice because of of their forward thinking, healthy approach to dental care. I've had an opportunity to get to know all three dentists, as well as many of the support staff and love their easy, genuine, thoughtful personalities. What an excellent find!

Scheduled a cleaning with Kelsey, enjoyed my experience and she did a great job as always. I picked up some Risewell toothpaste and oxygenated olive oil before I left. Don't sleep on the take home products they offer.

When Dr. Kim Baer informed me that Dr. Brown (new associate) was HER dentist, I knew I would be in good hands. I was not disappointed. After replacing two old mercury fillings and installing another new filling, she worked diligently and was not satisfied until my bite was perfect. Dr. Brown also took note of a prior sensitive reaction to the gum numbing agent and used an alternative. I am very satisfied with the dental services received at Natural Dentist Associates. No complaints!

Dr. Tipograph's dental evaluation was more thorough than any I've ever received. She listened to my health and dental history, answered my questions, did not rush my appointment, nor did she hold the conversation with my mouth full of dental instruments causing me to be less inclined to speak.

Best dental practice I've been with. Cutting edge care and visioning of the integration of dentistry with the general medical field.

I met Dr. Tipograph today and she was very clear and friendly. Appt today.: Dr. Tippograph reviewed my CT scan and made recommendations for next steps. Dr. Brown examined my mouth. Maddy cleaned my teeth. All were excellent. Dr.Tippograph continued to put in my implant by putting on the abutments. I asked for a second opinion about another dental and her approach was much less expensive than the other dentist's so I will go with her.

I've had a great experience at NDA! You will not be able to find another dentist anywhere in the DMV that is as natural as Natural Dentist Associates! everything in our body is connected, including our teeth, and it's true how much of an effect our teeth has on our body, like things you would never even think about. For example, I've had the ALF appliance for about a year now and my scoliosis has improved as a result, it has improved my posture, my breathing, and a lot of the pain I've had because of my scoliosis. Thank you NDA!

This is the first time in my life that I have looked forward to a dental visit. The entire staff at NDA is well-trained, and each of them is welcoming, professional and appear to enjoy their jobs. Dr. Baer is superb, not only technically, but also in her thoughtful and systematic approach to problems. Her incorporation of functional medicine concepts into her practice distinguishes her from other practices. I highly recommend Natural Dentist Associates.

My totally favorite dental practice of my life! Dr Kim Baer is my specific dentist-She is highly skilled, empathetic, and has a healing manner and touch. All of the dentists and entire staff are terrific at what they do. They are up to date and understand that our oral health is pivotal to our overall health. As an Integrative physician, I was and remain so happy to have them be a mainstay of my personal health team.

I was late but they took me anyway! And I hardly had to wait. As usual, great service. Love Dr Tipograph, my dentist, but they are all good. Our whole family goes here. They they have a holistic practice and seem very up-to-date. Just want to update as of 08/20202. Still love this practice! Dr Baer is amazing and my son had Dr Brown today (she's new) and said she was also great. They are doing an excellent job during the Covid crisis of keeping everyone safe too! I'm even taking my elderly mother there -- and she doesn't like to go anywhere! Honest, smart, kind, competent, holistic-- a great practice.
