Dental Treatment In The Hospital
Our hospital patient's fall into four
major categories; those who are not manageable in an office setting such as the
physically and or mentally handicapped, the sick and elderly with high risk
medical problems, and patients with dental phobias. Treatment is usually done
in one visit.
Dr. Berwitz is proud to be on staff at Memorial University
Medical Center where he has privileges to take patients in the operating room
so that treatment can be accomplished under general anesthesia. During his residency and as an attending at
Overlook Hospital in Summit NJ, he treated many patients in the hospital. Dr. Berwitz is a active member in the
American Association of Hospital Dentists.
If you or a member of your family needs dental treatment in the hospital please
call the office for information. We usually like to see the patient in the
office for an evaluation so we can develop the outline of a treatment plan, to
determine the amount of operating room time needed to complete the treatment.
