Wellness Dentistry in Bedminster

At Polished General and Cosmetic Dentistry, we believe that true oral health isn’t just about clean teeth; it’s about your whole-body wellness. That’s why we take a comprehensive, proactive approach to dentistry that looks beyond what’s happening in your mouth and considers how it connects to the rest of your health.

Your oral health is connected to so much more than just your teeth—it’s a window into your overall well-being.

Our Wellness Dentistry services are designed to uncover early signs of potential health issues, empower you with personalized guidance, and support your body from the inside out.

Why Does Wellness Dentistry Matter?

By focusing on prevention and education, wellness dentistry helps us do more than treat problems; it helps us stop them before they start. Dr. Gerri Illiano and Dr. Sara Barazesh are passionate about giving patients the tools and knowledge to take control of their health and feel their best at every stage of life.

At Polished, we believe that the mouth is a mirror of the body. From cardiovascular health to inflammation and immune function, the condition of your oral environment can offer critical insights into your total health. That’s why we approach dentistry with a deeper awareness—combining advanced diagnostics, like Oral DNA® saliva testing, with personalized care that supports both your smile and your systemic wellness.

At Polished, we offer Oral DNA® saliva testing—an advanced, non-invasive diagnostic tool that allows us to detect harmful bacteria linked to gum disease, inflammation, and even systemic conditions such as heart disease and diabetes. By analyzing your saliva at the molecular level, we gain precise insights into your unique oral microbiome, enabling us to personalize your treatment plan with greater accuracy and effectiveness. This cutting-edge technology empowers us to not only treat existing concerns but also prevent future issues—supporting your oral and overall health from the inside out.

Evidence-Based Care. Thoughtfully Delivered.
