After graduating from the University of Maryland as a general dentist, then serving two years in the Army with a year tour in Vietnam, he went on to become a pediatric dentist serving Southern Maryland for over 30 years.

Dr. Mintz is currently a regular consultant to the Orofacial Pain clinic at Walter Reed National Medical Center, active staff (holds an academic advisor position) at the National Children’s Hospital Sleep Center, is on the Deans faculty at the Maryland Dental School, and an assistant professor at GW Medical School in the department of Pediatrics.

Excellent TMJ Doctor

After seeing multiple TMJ doctors for jaw pain, Dr. Mintz was the first to diagnose my problem accurately. It was caused by Sleep Apnea. With his expert diagnosis and treatment, I'm on the way to healing and sleeping.

One of the finest TMJ Doctors in the DC area!

Dr. Mintz listened to the problems I was having with my jaw and was able to correct my issue so that I no longer experience pain. He made a night mouth guard and carefully fit it onto my teeth so that it prevented night grinding of my teeth. Dr. Mintz cares about his patients. I never feel rushed. I can't imagine seeing anyone else for my TMJ.

Dr. Mintz is a Superb Clinician & Teacher

Today was my first visit to see Dr. Mintz for evaluation of my obstructive sleep apnea. When I arrived in the office, I was warmly greeted by the office staff, my blood pressure was taken and I reviewed an excellent patient education video presented by Dr. Mintz. Dr. Mintz explained the etiology and management of obstructive sleep apnea and the process for evaluation including the types of dental devices. Dr. Mintz performed very comprehensive exam, very gentle, outstanding explanation.

Wish we had started with Dr. Mintz!

We are so thankful to have found Dr. Mintz - he has been on target with his treatment. He has a gentle manner, is kind and patient, and I trust him my daughter's care.

After my daughter suffered locked jaw, a different specialist pushed drastic measures, was unwilling to answer questions, and made my daughter fearful of the dentist. Fortunately we found Dr. Mintz for a second opinion and his more cautious approach gave her steady improvement and his gentle manner took away anxiety.
