Taking Care of the Whole Body

Dr. Sophia Cornish and Dr. Piiamari Bowers

Dexter Dental Studio takes a holistic approach when addressing the oral health of their patients. Dr. Piiamari Bowers, DDS, and Dr. Sophia Cornish, DDS, say, “You can't have a healthy body without a healthy mouth.  We take this into consideration with every visit and offer a variety of alternative and natural services. This makes us unique in the dental community.”

Dexter Dental Studio values educating our future generations. Children enjoy taking part in the Hands-on Learning Lab, where they conduct fun experiments and discuss healthy lifestyle choices. Uuno the Bravery Assistant, a dental comfort dog, brings a calming energy to the environment and even sits in with patients during their appointments.

They are excited to offer myofunctional therapy for patients of all ages. Myofunctional therapy is an exercise-based treatment modality that helps patients prevent or correct symptoms and conditions associated with disorders of the face, mouth and jaws. This improves tongue placement, breathing, speaking, chewing and swallowing, which can have a huge impact on their overall health and well-being, including apnea, relapse after braces, TMJ dysfunction, thumb/finger sucking and more.

Dexter Dental Studio also screens patients for signs of hypertension, diabetes and sleep apnea. They offer supplements, probiotics and other natural solutions to improve and maintain oral health, working closely with physicians.
