As one of few local dental practices with a holistic approach, we pride ourselves on educating our patients about holistic dentistry and its positive effects on the whole body. We are committed to developing alternative treatment plans based on your individual needs.
Holistic dentistry provides a healthier alternative to traditional dentistry by using more natural and toxin-free materials and techniques. We help you achieve optimal oral health not just by treating teeth and gums but by addressing the patients mental, emotional, physical, and overall health state. Holistic dentistry goes by many names, and you may see it referred to as:
One of the most significant benefits of holistic healing in dentistry is the elimination of harmful metals that eventually cause more issues than they do solutions in the long term. Therefore, our practice is entirely metal-free and uses zirconia for implants to replace toxic chemical composites that have long been the standard.
When choosing the best treatment plan for patients, we strive to create a holistic, natural experience. Holistic dentistry avoids harmful chemicals and metals and offers natural solutions to oral issues before they become severe.
We use zirconia implants, or ceramic implants are recommended to avoid introducing harmful materials into your body. Transitioning to holistic dentistry involves natural treatments and thorough education on oral health and its effects on the body.
Holistic dentists opt for biocompatible BPA-free materials to alleviate oral issues. We use alternative techniques and materials and avoid plastic and metals in our practice. Your oral health can be maintained with toxin-free materials and products such as herbal mouthwashes and herbal toothpaste without fluoride.
The holistic dentist assesses materials traditionally used in the procedures. For example, chemical composites such as BPA are restricted due to their effects on the overall health of our patients. BPA is a chemical used to make plastics and resins that can leak chemicals into food when heated. By choosing a holistic practice, you can rest assured our tools and materials are holistic, metal-free, and toxin-free. No chemicals like BPA will be present during your cleaning or dental treatment.
Improve your oral hygiene to combat harmful bacteria that can start in the mouth and spread to other areas in the body. Understanding how your oral health and the rest of your body are interconnected can help prevent serious health issues. We share our knowledge of holistic therapies and work with our patients to improve their oral health and nutrition.

So happy I found this office, staff is kind, place is clean, and Dr Babrood is an amazing dentist. She's very knowledgeable and works on prevention side, to make sure you don't get to a point where you're already in pain. She's kind and a beautiful person. I bring 2 of my kids here and they love her. My 5 year old is always asking when we're going to see the dentist again, this is how much she loves it here :)

After calling 8 dentists who had been referred to me by my hmo, none would see me on an emergency basis. I was at wits end, in horrible pain. Found Rite Dentist online and was treated so well, was so comforted she's now my primary dentist. Dr B's office staff & dental assistant are outstanding. Dr B spent time thoroughly going over every detail, reviewed xrays and developed a plan for me. She is patient and compassionate. Cannot recommend this team enough.

Great experience! Very clean office. Welcoming staff. Lovely and patient bedside manner. I appreciate the holistic approach so much. Dr.Babrood knows her stuff. I feel safe in her care and energy. I love that the woman at the front desk was so knowledgeable about dental care as well. It was helpful when talking to her about scheduling follow ups, etc. I'm very happy that I found this office.

Dr. B's bedside manner is second to none. She is not only knowledgeable, but caring and has great attention to detail. As someone who is in the process of getting a lot of work done (removing old mercury fillings) I have to say that I am incredibly grateful that I took the time to research and found Dr. B and her team. You'll be in good hands!

I've been going to Rite Dentist for over 2 years. Dr. Nikkie is so kind and very knowledgeable. I put in the work on my oral care to make sure my teeth are clean, gums are healthy, and no bad breath. Always coming out smiling. No pun intended lol

This place rules. Great environment and an even better doc. I came in for a chipped front tooth and a cleaning. Cleaning was amazing but the chipped tooth was incredible. It was so good, and she was so confident she asked, can you even tell which tooth was chipped? She obviously knew the answer because I was wrong. I called out the wrong tooth. It's incredible work. Highly recommend this place.

I am amazed at the kindness and care of the whole team at Rite Dentist. I have felt taken care of from the first moment I called and Cara went above and beyond (and continues to do so) in working with and helping me understand how everything works with my insurance! Isabel was such a delight to talk with and made my experience in the chair peaceful to begin with. And can't say enough great things about Dr. B! She's taken so much time and care with me to make sure that everything is taken care of in the best way and she's explained everything so much more than I've ever had before every step of the way, from what work she was doing on my teeth and why, along with the how's and why's of taking care of them. Not to mention even though it was only my second time going into the office I already feel like they already have made an amazing effort at getting to know me on a more personal level and make me feel comfortable. The office itself is beautiful and so serene, from calming music in the lobby to big open windows with views of big beautiful trees. And it's wholistic! Can't say enough great things and I am oddly happy when I go to the dentist. Thank you!!!

Dr. Babrood and her team are simply the best. We've tried many dentists in L.A. for our family and were continually disappointed. Dr. Babrood is caring, knowledgeable, experienced, and has integrity. Her techniques, equipment and materials are cutting edge, highly effective and safe. And if you care about finding someone holistic then look no further!
