A Personal Note from Dr. Tom


I consider Dr. Kirlough to be a highly trained, experienced, skilled and caring health-focused mercury safe dentist. I am impressed with the depth of his knowledge and understanding about the critically important relationship of oral to overall health and he utilizes this knowledge when designing the treatment of his patients. He promotes patient education and has a personal interest in the health and healing of his patients.

He has completed my course, and received his 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 him to safely remove mercury amalgam fillings safely, protecting himself, his staff, his patients and the environment from excessive and unnecessary exposure to mercury at the dental office.

His deep concern for his patients' health, his ongoing training in holistic and cosmetic dentistry, and his concern for the safe removal of amalgam fillings makes him ideally suited to remove and replace them.

I highly recommend him to anyone seeking a caring holistic and mercury safe dentist. Dr. Kirlough is also a charter member of the International Association of Mercury Safe Dentists (IAMSD).  When you visit his office, please let him know where you found out about him and tell him hello for me.
