History
I am a 4th generation dental surgeon with a gift for dental surgery and the vision for offering next-generation dentistry: 100% mercury-free, holistic and biological and integrative dentistry for every patient's best whole-body health. I provide general dentistry, but I am also Seattle's only 100% holistic cosmetic dentist. I am one of the most experienced experts in S.M.A.R.T. and safe removal of dental mercury amalgam in North America, and patients fly to Seattle from countries around the world seeking my counsel and treatment. I have a commitment to best-of-breed technology, lifelong learning, transparency and integration in healthcare and sharing what I have learned with the world. I have certifications in 17 medical disciplines, and have mentored with some of the world's top experts and research scientists in Ozone Therapy, Mercury amalgam removal and mercury-free/metal-free dentistry, IV vitamin supplementation, chiro-dontics and more.
Specialties
I am a biological dentist -- also known as a systemic dentist, using holistic, natural materials and treatments and state-of-the-art technology with an integrative approach. My full-time dental practice is in Seattle (Bellevue), however I return to Santa Monica monthly to ensure the quality continuing care of my existing patients there. I recognize the need for a broader scope in modern dentistry. Any intervention on a tooth can have both local and systemic effects on the nervous system, immune system, digestive system, musculo-skeletal system, etc. My approach to dental health encompasses the patient's diet, immune and structural integrity, and energetic allignment as well as all the traditional treatments that patients are used to receiving at a conventional dental practice. I specialize in safe mercury filling removal, surgical repair and cavitational osteonecrosis, proper tooth extraction, structural harmony, and -- most importantly -- helping patients practice preventative dentistry. I am considered a pioneer in mercury-free, systemic and minimally-invasive dentistry, and I am regularly asked to speak at holistic dental and systemic dental conferences and to naturopathic students worldwide. I would be honored if you wanted to learn more about my experience and research in more than 25 years of practicing holistic, systemic dentistry documented in my 2016 book,
