Mercury Free and Mercury Safe, Health-Focused, Cosmetic and Family Dentistry
Dr. Paul Rubin's office is mercury free and mercury safe since 1981. He is dedicated to the practice of healthy dentistry. His goal is to treat his patients in the most healthy, caring, holistic and biocompatible way possible and to share information about dental wellness with his patients so that they may make educated decisions about their oral health. He fully understands the important relationship of oral to overall health and realizes that; "You cannot be truly healthy without good oral health!"
As your Oral Health Doctor, Dr. Rubin is aware that mercury vapor and dental infections can have a negative impact on overall health. Because of this concern, we focus on patient education and strive to remove mercury amalgam, silver, fillings in a safe way. To learn more about the importance of Mercury Safe Dentistry, Click Here.
To accomplish this, we utilize removal protocols based on recommendations of the International Academy of Oral Medicine and Toxicology (IAOMT) and other prominent biological and holistic dental organizations. For more information about why we use safe removal protocols and an explanation of what they are, Click Here.
Holistic, integrated dentistry is a philosophy that recognizes that the teeth and associated structures are a part of the whole body. Because of this important relationship we offer a wide range of healthy, biological treatment options. Dr. Rubin also takes a unique Whole Body approach to oral health care; combining sound dental science and technical experience with a deep concern for his patients' emotional well-being and comfort.
This Whole Body philosophy stresses the use of safe biocompatible dental materials whenever possible. He also works closely with highly qualified health professionals to assist him in his efforts to return the patient to optimal oral and overall health. His Health-Focused approach to dental treatment means that he treats the teeth, jaw, and related oral structures, with specific regard to how that treatment will affect the entire body.
Dr. Rubin believes that continuing education is a powerful tool that allows him to give you and your family the best, state-of-the-art dental care. Each year he takes many hours of continuing education courses and he has advanced training in many areas of holistic and traditional dentistry.

A Personal Note from Dr. Tom
I know Dr. Rubin personally and consider him a good friend. He is one of the pioneers in addressing the mercury amalgam filling issue, fluoride, and promoting holistic, biocompatible and integrative, mercury safe dentistry. He is an extraordinarily dedicated, highly trained, experienced and compassionate holistic dentist. I am very impressed with the depth of his knowledge and understanding about the critically important relationship of oral to overall health and his ongoing effort to educate his patients. He also utilizes this knowledge when designing a health based treatment plan for his patients.
His concern for his patients health, his on-going training in holistic, cosmetic and traditional dentistry; along with his commitment to safely remove amalgam fillings makes him ideally suited to remove and replace them. I am especially impressed with his environmentally friendly approach to his dental practice and I recommend him to anyone seeking a caring holistic and mercury free and mercury safe dentist.
Dr. Rubin is also a Charter Member of the International Association of Mercury Safe Dentists (IAMSD).
