Dr. Amy Ha Truong, Minnesota's first accredited dentist recognized by the International Academy of Oral Medicine and Toxicology (IAOMT), announces the opening of Pure Dental, a holistic dental clinic, at 6230 10^th St. N., Ste. 520, Oakdale, an eastern suburb of St. Paul. They recently had their ribbon cutting ceremony with the Oakdale Area Chamber of Commerce and City of Oakdale, including Mayor Stan Karwoski.

Born and raised in Minnesota, Truong received her Doctorate in Dental Surgery from the University of Minnesota School of Dentistry, in 2009, and after graduation became accredited by IAOMT for safe mercury/amalgam removal and integrative dentistry. Along with her credentials, she's also a member of the Holistic Dental Association (HDA). Truong uses holistic and integrative philosophy and methods adopted by IAOMT and HDA.

“At Pure Dental, we take pride in our services and how we care for our patients,” says Truong. They offer safe-amalgam/silver filling removal, BPA-free composite/white fillings, metal-free restorations (porcelain/ceramic crowns/partials), along with cosmetic (teeth whitening and metal-free Invisalign/orthodontics) and general dental care.

“We are reaching out to the community and the Twin Cities area by having a table at the Healthy Life Expo later this month,” says office manager, Matt Philippi.
