About Our Mercury Safe Practice
Dr. Patricia Webb's "Mercury Safe Dentist" office is located in Sebastopol, CA. She practices mercury free (amalgam silver filling free), mercury safe, holistic, and cosmetic dentistry. Holistic dentistry is a philosophy that recognizes that the teeth and associated structures are a part of the whole body. Because of her advanced dental training and her emphasis on total health, Dr. Webb takes a unique Whole Body approach to oral health care; combining sound dental science and technical experience with a deep concern for her patients’ physical and emotional well-being and comfort.
Her goal is to treat her patients in the most healthy, caring, holistic way possible and to share information about dental wellness with her patients so that they may make educated decisions about their oral health. She 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. Webb 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.

About Dr. Webb
Dr. Webb has devoted her dental career to practicing healthy, holistic, non-invasive, biocompatible dentistry. She is also a proponent of making the dental office occupationally safe regarding mercury and she strives to protect the patient, the staff, and the environment from excessive and unnecessary exposure to mercury at the dental office.
"I have been a General Dentist in private practice since 1984. I have extensive knowledge of occlusion, gnathology, restorative dentistry, fixed prosthetics, and cosmetic dentistry. My profession means helping people, either to get them out of pain, to improve the appearance of their teeth and smile, or just to improve their overall dental health. In short, taking a broken-down tooth and creating a pretty and functional one is extremely satisfying to me. Over the last 25 years I have created a deep connection to the people in my practice by listening to them and sharing the ups and downs of their lives over time. My practice and my patients are a significant part of my life."
"I am a lifelong resident of Mill Valley and currently live there with my husband and daughter. I love to hike, dance, knit, travel, and have fun with my daughter and family. I have also been involved in local Scottish, Scandinavian, and folk dance groups since 1975."

NEW! Dr. Tom McGuire's new YouTube Video, Mercury: The Poison in Your Teeth conclusively proves that amalgam/silver fillings not only release toxic mercury vapor - but that the common act of brushing just one amalgam filling - will release more mercury than allowed by governmental regulatory agencies at the workplace! It also tells you what you can do about it. Click Here to watch this amazing video demonstration - and don’t forget to tell your friends and family!

A Personal Note from Dr. Tom
I know Dr. Webb personally and have spoken with her many times about her philosophy and approach to healthy, mercury free and mercury safe dentistry. Her dedication to her patients and her concern about their oral and overall health has impressed me. She is also committed to educating her patients about all aspects of their oral health and believes, as I do, that an educated patient will make better, and more informed decisions about their oral health.
Her concern for her patients health, her ongoing training in holistic, cosmetic, and traditional dentistry; along with her commitment to safely remove amalgam fillings makes her ideally suited to remove and replace them. She also utilizes her extensive training to provide her patients with the very best treatment options.
She has completed my course, and received her Certification, in How to Make Your Practice Mercury Safe - Minimizing Occupational Exposure to Mercury in the Dental Office. This is the only course of its kind offered to dentists and qualifies her to safely remove mercury amalgam fillings safely. In doing so she is protecting herself, her staff, her patients and the environment from excessive ,and unnecessary, exposure to mercury at the dental office.
Dr. Webb is also a Charter Member of the International Association of Mercury Safe Dentists (IAMSD) and has taken our Course on How to Make the Dental Office Occupationally Safe for Mercury.
I recommend her highly to anyone seeking a caring, mercury free and mercury safe, holistic dentist. When you visit her office please tell her where you found out about her and say hello to her for me. Thanks!
