About Jill Ombrello, DDS, CIABDM, AIAOMT
Central Dentist is a holistic family dental practice in Dallas, Texas, organized around the oral-systemic connection: the premise that conditions in the oral cavity affect the body as a whole. The practice has been mercury-free since 1981 and uses fluoride-free materials and BPA-free composites exclusively, selecting every restorative material for biocompatibility. Clinical work runs from advanced diagnostics through biological therapy — CBCT 3D imaging for diagnosis and implant and airway assessment, ozone therapy as an antimicrobial adjunct, SMART-protocol amalgam removal, zirconia ceramic implants placed with platelet-rich fibrin derived from the patient's own blood, and airway-centered care for sleep-disordered breathing and TMJ disorders. The stated approach is minimally invasive, preserving natural tooth structure and investigating root causes rather than treating symptoms alone.

Common Questions
What does this practice mean by a holistic, root-cause approach?
The practice treats the mouth as a gateway to overall health and investigates why a problem occurred rather than only repairing it. A cavity is read as a signal that something in the body's ecosystem needs attention — nutrition, pH balance, or airway function affecting sleep. Care extends to collaboration with a patient's other health and wellness providers.
How is amalgam removed, and what materials replace it?
The practice follows the SMART protocol for safe mercury amalgam removal and has been mercury-free since 1981. Replacement materials are chosen for biocompatibility: fluoride-free materials exclusively and BPA-free composites. An amalgam separator prevents mercury from entering the water supply, and charcoal and ozone therapy are used in its detoxification work.
Why does the practice place zirconia ceramic implants instead of titanium?
Ceramic implants are made from high-strength zirconia and introduce no metal into the body, which the practice cites as avoiding galvanic currents between dissimilar metals, metal sensitivity, and gray discoloration at the gum line. Zirconia implants are described as withstanding chewing forces comparably to titanium.
What role does platelet-rich fibrin play in implant treatment?
PRF is a concentration of healing factors drawn from the patient's own blood and applied during implant placement. The practice reports it supports bone integration and soft-tissue response and reduces post-operative discomfort. It is used alongside CBCT-guided planning and ozone treatment of the surgical site.
Does the practice address sleep, breathing, and TMJ concerns?
Yes. Airway-centered care is one of its stated service lines, covering sleep-disordered breathing and snoring, TMJ pain, and proper airway development with attention to mandibular positioning and TMJ function. CBCT imaging is used to evaluate the airway and identify TMJ problems as part of that assessment.
What environmental and air-quality measures are in place at the office?
The office has installed negative ionizers, enhanced air purification and improved air circulation, plus a water filtration system serving dental procedures and an amalgam separator protecting the water supply. The practice describes these as deliberate measures to limit exposure to environmental and material toxicities.
