Integrative diagnostics and medicine is the next level of healthcare – it observes the human body as a whole, combining various areas of advanced biological dentistry with the holistic component of general medicine, always alongside your current medical plan. This is the “Mouth-Body Connection” as we see it.

Health and illness are a delicate balance in our daily lives: one day we’re feeling amazing, and the next, not so much. The diagnostic process in itself is already hard, as we attend appointment after appointment, seeking answers, understanding, help, wellbeing. The process of healing can be long and confusing, it can be painful and frustrating. We understand this at a very deep level. At White Clinic, we are determined to alleviate human suffering and support your healing journey back to optimal health and quality of life. Back to yourself.
Most of the time, this journey can be accelerated by treating inflammation in the mouth under our Revision Dentistry protocol. Usually this means removing old treatments affecting and burdening your immune system.
It’s imperative to test first and plan the best treatments for you and not over-treat. We are always minimally invasive in our approach.
Cancer is a major cause of death around the world. The numbers are staggering. It’s a reality that we see in our patients and that we help treat on a daily basis.
Approximately one-third of cancer deaths are due to smoking, high body mass index, alcohol consumption, low fruit and vegetable consumption, and sedentarism.
The most common cancers are breast, lung, colon and rectum, prostate, skin, and stomach.
Lung, colon and rectum, liver, stomach, and breast cancers are the deadliest.
Cancer-causing infections, such as human papillomavirus (HPV) and hepatitis, are responsible for approximately 30% of cancer cases in low- and lower-middle-income countries.
If you’re a cancer patient or even a cancer survivor and are interested in an integrative approach to your health we can work with your team and offer many complementary treatments always starting with a deep oral check up to ensure all hidden sources of inflammation are removed safely prior to anything else. We are world leaders in this.
Step 1
Our Integrative Oral Medicine appointment begins with a comprehensive biological dentistry check-up, which includes a state-of-the-art Cone Beam Computed Tomography scan (CBCT). This advanced technology provides our team with a precise 3D look into your mouth. Why do we need this? It’s the only way to verify if you have any chronic inflammation or infection or even prejudicial old dental treatments – this type of pathogens and toxicity deeply affect the rest of the body, compromising the immune system and hindering the body’s natural capacity to heal.
Step 2
The in-depth study of your current health status continues with cutting-edge blood, hair and saliva tests. We work with the most advanced labs in the world for specific diagnostics – a crucial step in preparing personalised treatment plans that target the root cause, in order to support recovery, health and longevity.
We are team players and you’re the most important person on the team. Education and information are critical. We can’t rush this important process.
Over 70% of the population has a vitamin D deficiency, often linked to fatigue and low energy. Discover your vitamin D levels in just 10 minutes with a quick, painless finger prick using advanced in-house technology.
A clinically validated test that measures immune hypersensitivity to multiple metals from a single blood sample. This is essential for patients with metal alloys in their body, including titanium, aluminum, cobalt, or nickel.
A simple hair analysis that measures essential trace minerals such as iron, copper, manganese, zinc, selenium, iodine, and others — all crucial for optimal biological function and recovery.
An advanced test that detects hidden inflammation or infection in the body, helping identify chronic conditions that may be linked to past dental procedures or oral infections.
Upon request, we can prescribe any medical test available and conveniently manage all your blood work through our in-house laboratory partnership with Germano de Sousa. We also collaborate with leading physicians in Portugal to ensure comprehensive diagnostic insight and optimal medical support.
We work with renowned genetic research laboratories to offer a wide range of DNA and genetic tests that help uncover predispositions, metabolic patterns, and key insights into your long-term health.
Step 3
With the results of your dental health check-up, CBCT scan and additional tests, we prepare a custom protocol that is tailored to you with a plan to help you be best prepared to fight for optimal health, no matter the phase you are in. Our world class high tech “Oral Detox” protocols are scientifically designed to eliminate low grade chronic inflammation and/or infection, and are wholly supported by our advanced healing therapies and regenerative technologies such as – red light therapy, ozone therapy, hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT), intravenous light therapy, photobiomodulation, hydrogen inhalation, chromotherapy, Bio-Electro-Magnetic-Energy-Regulation therapy, supplementation, intravenous immune boosting therapies, among others.
These integrative therapies are completely aligned with your current medical treatment plan, because, as an extremely complex issue, we believe health must be looked at from all angles. We also believe we can truly help you on your path to recovery.

Your health is your
greatest wealth
Oral health & general health as one
We know that most doctors and physicians have little or no understanding of the vital connection between oral health and general health, and how one can deeply impact the other. This article proves that oral infection and inflammation can cause pancreatic cancer. As biological dentists we have been studying, practicing and seeing firsthand outstanding results for over 25 years, precisely because we are paying extremely close attention to this fundamental link. As an integrative medical team, we are certain that we can work alongside traditional doctors and treatment plans to help you heal and thrive. There’s nothing more important than that, because there is nothing more important than your health.
