General dentists also address overall health concerns, as oral health is seen as the mirror of general health. In fact, some dental problems may reflect issues in other parts of the body and vice versa. Dr. Waltzer prides himself on his ability to establish warm and friendly doctor/patient relationships. With each patient, he works hard to allay any dental phobias patients may have. He ensures that his patients are able to maintain the highest degree of oral health.
