Dr. Tom Tipton, DMD, MDS
Raised in a military family, so Fort Bliss families feel like home. Half marathons with his kids, humanitarian dental work on three continents, and a real fondness for El Paso patients.

About Dr. Tipton
Dr. Tipton earned his dental degree from Washington University in St. Louis and his orthodontic degree from the University of Pittsburgh. He practiced orthodontics in Tempe and Gilbert, Arizona for many years before coming to El Paso.
He grew up in a military family and loves working with El Paso's military families. In his youth he lived in numerous states, and also in Panama and Japan.
