About Our Mercury Safe Dental Practice
Dr. Ryan Jones' 'Mercury Safe Dentist' office is located in Franklin, TN. He is mercury free (amalgam/silver filling free) and mercury safe and is dedicated to the practice of health-based dentistry. He and his team strive 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 can make educated decisions about their oral health. He fully understands the critically important relationship of oral to overall health and realizes that; "You cannot be truly healthy without good oral health!"

Safe Mercury Amalgam Filling Removal Protocols
Dr. Jones is aware that mercury vapor, dental infections, and TMJ (bite) problems can have a negative impact on oral and overall health. Because of these concerns, we focus on patient education and strive to remove mercury amalgam (silver) fillings in a safe way. His team believes it is important to protect the patient, the environment, and themselves from exposure to excessive mercury during the amalgam removal process. To accomplish this, we utilize safe & proven removal protocols based on recommendations of the International Association of Mercury Safe Dentists (IAMSD) and other prominent biological and holistic dental organizations.

Holistic Dentistry
Holistic/Biological Dentistry is a philosophy that recognizes that the teeth and associated oral structures are a part of the whole body. Because of this important relationship, Nashville Restorative Dentistry offers a wide range of treatment options. Dr. Jones also takes a unique Whole Body approach to oral health care; combining sound dental science, modern technology, and years of experience with a deep concern for his patients' physical health and emotional well-being and comfort.

Continuing Education and Technology
Dr. Jones 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 an extensive amount of continuing education in order to provide his patients with the most advanced dental care possible.  In 2017 he was awarded his Fellowship in the Academy of General Dentistry – recognizing his commitment to obtaining over 500 hours of continuing education and passing a written fellowship exam.  The office philosophy of Nashville Restorative Dentistry is also very technology focused.  Advanced CT scan imagery, all digital radiography, CAD/CAM dentistry, and same day crowns are just an example of their commitment to providing the latest technology in their office.  To learn more about our Latest Technology please Click Here!

A Personal Note from Dr. Tom


Dr. Jones belongs to a number of highly regarded dental organizations, including my International Association of Mercury Safe Dentists (IAMSD) Association. These organizations encourage taking a integrative, whole-body approach to dental treatment and promote patient education. His approach to healthy dentistry includes the understanding that you cannot be healthy without good oral health and he takes this into consideration when planning his patients dental treatment.

I consider Dr. Jones to be a caring, highly trained, skilled and experienced dentist. His commitment to quality, health-focused dentistry, his ongoing dedication to continuing education, and his concern for his patients health and well-being, makes him ideally suited to safely remove and replace mercury amalgam fillings.

Dr. Jones is a charter member of my Mercury Safe Dentist Association and I highly recommend him to anyone seeking a mercury free, mercury safe, and compassionate dentist. I recommend visiting his Website to learn more about his whole-body approach to dentistry. When you visit his office, please let him know where you found out about him and say hello to him from me. Thanks!
