Mercury-Free, Mercury-Safe, Holistic, Cosmetic, and Family Dentistry
Dr. Scott Silver's office is mercury-free and mercury-safe and his mission is to share information about dental wellness with her patients so that they can make educated decisions about their oral health. His goal is to treat his patients in the most healthy, caring, holistic 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!" His office continues the tradition of exceptional care established by his father, Dr. Marvin Silver, who founded the office and practiced there for 58 years.
As your Oral Health Doctor, Dr. Silver 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. For information about why it's important to use a mercury-safe dentist, 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.

Holistic dentistry is a philosophy that recognizes that the teeth and associated structures are a part of the whole body. His Health-Based approach to holistic dentistry means that he treats the teeth, jaw, and related oral structures, with specific regard to how that treatment will affect the entire body.
Because of this important relationship we offer a wide range of healthy treatment options. Dr. Silver 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.
Dr. Silver 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.
