Dr. Fitzloff has retired and his associate, Dr. Fishman, has taken over the practice. She is excellent and was, some years ago, one of Dr. Fitzloff's students. She is conservative just like he was, so advice and work is excellent.

My main dentist referred me to Dr. Fitzloff to fix a loose abutment to a 15-year-old implant When Dr. Fitzloff first looked at it, he thought he would have to pull off the abutment and the crown that was on top of it (damaging both), then replace them. When he looked at the X-rays from the oral surgeon, he saw the crown was attached by a type of screw that isn't commonly used any more. He was able to unscrew it, save the crown, and attach the abutment for much less cost than he originally estimated. Needless to say, I was very satisfied.

Endodontists and periodontists and prosthodontists, oh my! Here’s who does what.

Should You Buy Dental Insurance?

If you don’t carry dental insurance coverage, you can buy it yourself. But because, like any insurance, the companies that offer dental coverage take in more money than they pay out, carefully evaluate available options before you buy.

Teeth-Whitening Options

There are several options to lighten your not-so-pearly whites. Some methods are completely DIY, some are DIY with help from a dentist, and some are performed while in a dentist’s chair.

How to Brush and Floss Properly

You’ll reduce the length of time you have to spend in a dentist’s chair—and drastically reduce the procedures your teeth need—by regularly performing proper routine dental care.

Cavities: How They Form and How to Prevent Them

Throughout recorded history, tooth decay (dental caries) has probably caused more pain than any other infectious disease.

A Summary of Dental Treatment Options

Despite substantial progress in the prevention of caries and gum disease, most Americans’ mouths still bear witness to their ravages. The usual procedures for repairing and replacing teeth have not changed in many years but progress continues on most fronts.

Gum Disease Prevention and Treatment

As more and more teeth withstand the threat of caries, a second type of threat must be confronted: periodontal disease, the disease of the gums, bone, and supporting structures around the teeth.
