They practice a full scope of holistic general dentistry, with expertise ranging from TMJ disorders, cosmetic dentistry, and implant restoration to white composite fillings and safe mercury removal from silver fillings.

They also utilize state-of-the-art equipment for patient safety and comfort, such as iTero Digital Scanning as an alternative to traditional molds and the ADS EOS Extraoral Suction System to eliminate aerosols during procedures. Dr. Tortora is a member of the Holistic Dental Organization (HDO) and the American Association for Oral Systemic Health (AAOSH), affiliations that support his commitment to Holistic dentistry. He has over 40 years of experience in mercury-free dentistry. The clinic's services extend beyond traditional general dentistry to include cosmetic dentistry, Invisalign, endodontics (root canals), and dentures.
