Dentistry redefined
At Vios Dental, we believe that all systems of the body are interconnected, and dental health is an opportunity for holistic healing of the body, mind and spirit.

Our approach lies deeply in the oral systemic connection, utilizing the safest and most biocompatible materials, and in the science of healing for whole person health-mind, body, and spirit.
Wake each morning feeling energized, alive and healthy from head to toe.
The dream
You've been made to believe that your body is compartmentalized. That your mouth and your teeth have little to do with your overall health. Traditional dentistry often only focuses on present pain, reacting when it's too late.
When we began our practice we set out to redefine dentistry, offer unmatched care, and optimize each patient's whole health and well being.

The Vios Experience
STEP INTO OUR OFFICE
ONE
First we’ll welcome you to our office, where you will be met by Dr. Kriegel and his team. This is our time to get to know you, your history, and your goals and gain a deeper look into the overall health of your mouth and the impact it may be having on your body.
We will then obtain a multitude of diagnostics, which include three dimensional cone beam imaging (also known as CBCT), necessary dental radiographs, a full composite of photos of your facial anatomy and teeth, oral cancer screening, initial periodontal evaluation, and an in depth clinical examination of your mouth as seen by Dr. Kriegel.
Diagnostics

As soon as we have acquired your diagnostic data, we collaborate. Dr. Kriegel will take time to analyze your records and diagnostics, and create your personalized treatment plan with the objective of improving your health, restoring proper function, and enhancing esthetics.
Finally, before any treatment is performed, we’ll review your plan and provide you with insight and recommendations necessary to make the most informed, educated decision about your health, longevity, and comfort. Being able to support you on your unique healing journey is a quintessential part of our practice. Our goal is that you will leave your initial comprehensive assessment, feeling empowered, educated, and ready to make informed decisions about your health.

Dr. Kriegel took the time to explain every step of the process, answered all of my questions, and made me feel confident in his abilities. They exceeded my expectations in every way, from their welcoming and friendly demeanor to their exceptional care.
10 out of 10. Nothing short of exceptional!

I was concerned about potentially having some issues after many years of having not gone to a dentist but also wanted a more entire body health approach to my oral health. Cody and staff were very thorough and made me feel confident that they weren't a drill and fill operation. I was impressed with the discussion about the oral microbiome related to the overall microbiome and a dental approach that greatly considers that in its treatment approach. I would highly recommend!
They were very thorough and made me feel empowered about my oral health.

I feel very strongly that we need to empower patients to make the best healthcare decisions based on their individual needs. It took a lot of courage for Dr. Kriegel to step away from that model. I will always be grateful for the care and attention to detail that I received as a patient with this practice.

One appointment down so far and I am 100% ready to give all of my trust to this dentist and his team (and refer all of my family and friends). I am so relieved to have finally found a dentist I trust more than 110% (if that’s possible).

What materials do you use?
At Vios Dental, we prioritize using materials that are biocompatible and safe for your overall health. We focus on metal-free options, including ceramic implants and BPA-free materials, to ensure we support your body’s natural healing process. For patients with specific sensitivities or concerns, we offer the option of biocompatibility testing through a trusted third party to help determine the most suitable materials for your individual needs.
back to faqs
do you use a laser?
Yes. Laser dentistry is a safe, effective, and non-invasive way to perform treatment in the dental office. Each case is unique and Dr. Kriegel will determine if laser dentistry is the best course of action.
back to faqs
what is my alternative to a root canal?
When a root canal is recommended it is important to understand why. A CBCT will be able to evaluate whether the tooth is infected or fractured past the point of repair. In that instance, the alternative would be to remove the tooth, the surrounding ligament, and place a biocompatible ceramic implant to restore form and function.
back to faqs
are x-rays dangerous or harmful?
Dental x-rays emit low levels of radiation, however they are one of the most powerful tools for prevention. They allow us to uncover dental decay, lesions, or disease when it is small enough that we can not see clinically. All x-rays taken will follow the ALARA (as low as reasonably achievable) principle and each patient will be protected by lead aprons.
back to faqs
Do You See Kids?
Unfortunately, Dr. Kriegel is not a pediatric dentist and does not see children until they have all of their adult dentition and at least one parent is an established patient at Vios.
back to faqs
why aren't there more biological dentists?
While most dentists understand the oral systemic connection, biological dentists take this methodology further. Biological dentistry requires additional education and training beyond what is studied in dental school.
back to faqs
do you work with other practitioners?
In order to best treat each patient, collaboration is key. As a biological dentist, I often work closely with MDs, DOs, NDs, DCs, integrative physicians, and nutritionists.
back to faqs
I want to establish care in your office but I don’t have any concerns, can I still become a patient?
Our clinic strives to offer unique experiences and exceptional biological dental care to patients with complex needs. We operate similar to that of a dental "hotel" rather than a dental "home," meaning we are simply a destination on a patient's journey to optimal health. While we deeply appreciate a patient's desire for biological dental care, unfortunately, we are not able to accommodate everyone who inquires about becoming a patient. For those we do serve, expect nothing less than excellent care and comfort.
back to faqs
Can I use the therapies you have in your clinic without having dental needs?
Absolutely! While our primary focus is on providing exceptional dental care to our patients, we do extend our healing modalities to those referred by other medical professionals. With a referral from another doctor, individuals can access therapies such as HBOT, Laser IV, ATP38 light therapy, and more at our clinic.
back to faqs
how do I know my biological dentist is recognized?
Biological dentistry is not a recognized specialty, rather a philosophy. With that, a dentist may refer to themselves as holistic or biological upon additional education and certifications. A differentiating factor is a biological dentist that is not only mercury free, but mercury safe. Also it is important to recognize the additional education and continuing education hours including accreditation within the IAOMT and IABDM organizations.
