FAMILY DENTAL CENTER

Dr. Michael W. Ritz has been practicing dentistry at the Family Dental Center since 2004, and took over the practice from his late father in 2013.

Throughout the years, Dr. Ritz strives to develop trusting and caring relationships with his patients and staff. His patients appreciate how he communicates and thoroughly explains treatment options, while sharing his warmth, humor, and expertise.
