The Ghanaati Protocol: Redefining Oral Surgery

Most people think oral surgery is just about pulling a tooth. But the how makes all the difference for your long-term health.

At the Biological Center for Dentistry, every surgical procedure follows the Ghanaati Protocol (— Ghanaati Regenerative Approach For Tissue Healing) — an evidence-based biological concept developed through decades of research at Goethe University.

This protocol focuses on preserving your body’s natural architecture, minimizing trauma, and activating your own healing potential through precise, science-backed steps:

➡️ Cone Beam CT (CBCT): A 3D view of your jawbone, roots, and nerve pathways to plan with precision and protect vital structures.

➡️ Atraumatic Extractions: Gentle, tissue-preserving techniques that safeguard surrounding bone and gum for optimal healing.

➡️ PRF (Platelet-Rich Fibrin): Your own blood is used to create a fibrin matrix rich in growth factors and stem cells — fueling natural regeneration in perfect harmony with your body’s biology.

➡️ Biological Graft: the PRF matrix can be combined with your own bone or other biocompatible, cell-friendly materials to naturally preserve the extraction site and stimulate new bone formation in alignment with the Ghanaati graft principles.

➡️ Laser Technology: Provides clean, precise tissue support with minimal bleeding and inflammation for a faster, more comfortable recovery.

➡️ Saline Ozone Rinse: A natural, oxygen-rich disinfectant that sterilizes the area, enhances circulation, and supports bone and gum regeneration.

This isn’t “just extracting a tooth.”
It’s guided biological regeneration — protecting your body from long-term complications, reducing inflammation, and restoring balance at the cellular level.

That’s the biological difference.

With heavy hearts, we share that Dr. Porcelli’s dad passed away suddenly after dinner at one of his favorite places- here in beautiful Hilton Head Island.
💛 A good man with a big heart and a joyful spirit.
He was happiest surrounded by family, laughing, telling stories, and making everyone feel loved.
Forever part of us — until we see you again. 🤍. ✝️ 2 Timothy 4:7–8 (KJV)

“I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith:
Henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness,
which the Lord, the righteous judge, shall give me at that day.”

✨ The Alignment That Heals You
You are the janitor of your temple — the caretaker of the body God entrusted to you. 🕊️

Every choice you make—what you eat, think, watch, and speak—is a vote for either life or imbalance.

A sound mind stewards the body.
A healthy body honors the Spirit.
And true healing happens when all three align: mind, body, and spirit.

💚 Comment “WHOLE HEALING” if you’re ready to honor God by healing your whole self.

10/20/2025

Healing starts in the heart of your home — the kitchen.

Not with fads or restrictions, but with real food, loving hands, and gratitude for what God provides.
Every ingredient you choose — from raw milk to pasture-raised eggs — tells your body, “I was made for this.”

✨ Choose whole, unprocessed, life-giving foods.
✨ Season with herbs that heal — garlic, turmeric, rosemary, basil, and oregano.
✨ And never forget — food made with love simply tastes better.

🥩🥚🍅 Healing is simple. It starts where connection, nourishment, and purpose meet — right in your kitchen.

Cheers,
Dr. Porcelli

🧡 Your Spirit: The Root of Real Healing

Your healing isn’t just physical.
It’s spiritual. It’s emotional. It’s sacred.

In a world obsessed with surface-level fixes, true healing often begins where few are looking:
→ In your relationship with God
→ In the quiet of your thoughts
→ In how you treat the vessel you’ve been given

I believe that health isn’t just about biology — it’s about alignment.
Mind. Body. Spirit.

When those are in balance, healing happens. ✨

A healthy spirit — anchored in God — gives you something no medication can:
• Deep peace
• Clarity of purpose
• Rest that renews your mind

✅ When you are spiritually nourished, you stop striving and start abiding.
And that rest becomes fertile ground for healing. 🙏

Alina:
Courage doesn’t mean no nerves — it means breathing through them. 🎬🙏
For me, that courage was born through the journey — through pain, uncertainty, and the faith that healing is possible. I share my story for all who have felt unheard, in despair, or trapped in illness — to remind them that there is hope, and that healing is not a miracle for a few, but a promise for all.

My journey exposed hidden sources of inflammation — from root canals and cavitations to breast implants, heavy metals, and BPA exposure — each revealing how deeply toxicity can affect our health and emotions. Yet, through it all, God led me from pain to purpose, teaching me that healing begins when faith replaces fear.

Dr. Porcelli:
I’ve always believed that vibrant health is our birthright. It’s how God created us — to live in harmony and alignment with the body He designed. Through biological dentistry, we’ve witnessed how faith and science together can restore not just teeth, but lives.

But greatest of all is love — love for my patients, love in hearing them, and love in letting them know they are not alone. There is hope out there. Find the provider who truly listens, who walks with you on your journey, and trust what your heart and prayer reveal to be right for you. Above all… pray, pray, pray. 🙏

Our story is being shared in the upcoming ‘Bye Ol’ Dentistry’ documentary — premiering next year at the Cannes Film Festival and airing in early 2027. ✨
From pain to purpose — autoimmune disease, BPA and toxin exposure, cavitations, root canals, breast implants — every challenge became a chapter in God’s greater story of restoration. 💛

Visiting Dome’s clinic reminded us of something important: dentistry is never just about teeth. It’s about your whole body, your healing, and your life. 🌿✨

Yes, Biological Dentistry 3.0 brings powerful tools to the table:
💻 Global diagnostics — looking at the whole patient, not just the mouth
💧 IV therapy — supporting recovery and resilience
🔴 Red light therapy — reducing inflammation, fueling repair
🌬️ HBOT (Hyperbaric Oxygen) — oxygen as medicine for deep healing

But just as meaningful were the moments outside of the operatory:
🥗 Healthy lunches that nourished us
💬 Talks that sparked fresh ideas
😂 Laughter that strengthened friendships
🍷 Dinners that made us feel like family

As Dr. Dome calls it, this is the Museum of Life. Every patient, every surgery, every shared moment — all part of a living collection that tells the story of true healing.

For patients, this is what you should expect from dentistry: not quick fixes, but care that supports your whole body and lasts a lifetime. 💙

For our Real B brothers, this is our standard — to co-elevate, to stay uniform in excellence, and to bring this level of dentistry to every patient we serve. 🙌🐺

Because when science and life come together, dentistry becomes so much more than treatment — it becomes transformation. ✨
