Mercury Free, Biological, Homeopathic, Cosmetic Dentistry
As a practitioner of biological dentistry, I follow the ancient principle of "FIRST DO NO HARM" (Primum non nocere). Following this principle, the patient comes first at our office and is evaluated and treated as a whole person rather than a set of teeth. Based on his whole body/biological approach to dentistry, Dr. Joseph Sarkissian understands that "you cannot be healthy without oral health".
As your Oral Health Care Doctor, Dr. Sarkissian is aware that mercury vapor and dental infections can have a negative impact on overall health. He has been mercury-free for over 15 years and to minimize his patients' exposure to mercury vapor he follows the strict recommendations established by the The International Academy of Oral Medicine and Toxicology (IAOMT) for safely removing mercury amalgam (silver) fillings. Our office also works closely with other qualified health professionals to help the patient to achieve optimal health and well-being.
Dr. Sarkissian 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, cosmetic, and conventional dentistry.

A Personal Note from Dr. Tom
I know Dr. Sarkissian and he is exceptionally qualified biological dentist and a person of great integrity. He has had advanced post-graduate training in all aspects of mercury free and biological dentistry. This, and his whole body approach to dentistry, makes Dr. Sarkissian highly qualified to safely remove and replace mercury amalgam (silver) fillings.
He is also unique in that he is a homeopathic doctor and as such he fully understands the critically important relationship between oral and overall health.
Dr. Sarkissian emphasizes highly individualized dental care for patients of all ages and I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone seeking a dentist for any reason; but especially for mercury free and biological dentistry.
Dr. Sarkissian is also a Charter Member of the IAMFD. I suggest you visit his informative website for more information about his philosophy and approach to healthy dentistry. When you visit his office, please let him know where you found out about him and say hello to him from me. Thanks! |
