Can anyone give me the name of a holistic dentist? I’m fed up of drilling, filling, billing dentists

Please define a ‘holistic’ dentist? Is this a practitioner who treats one’s teeth without actually drilling, or remotely?

I tend to trust science and medical based treatments and must admit that I’d not been aware of this branch of snake oil treatment. I’d think the practitioners know as much about dentistry as a greyhound knows about a knitting machine.

I didn’t ask for an opinion on holistic treatments. Read the question properly before answering!

A holistic dentist uses natural remedies first before resorting to allopathic treatments (if need requires it)

I had a fantastic holistic dentist in Germany, before moving here. They are regulated and covered by health insurance there. 
unfortunately I haven’t been able to find one since moving here…
