About UNIVERSITY CITY Pennsylvania Dental
University City Pennsylvania Dental has been providing the Philadelphia community with expert dental care for over the past 25 years!Â
If you live or work in the University City section of Philadelphia, we are here to give you and your family the best care we can. Many of our patients work at HUP, CHOP, Penn Presbyterian, Drexel, etc as well as local small businesses in the area.
We provide our patients with a clean and comfortable office filled with state-of-the-art equipment. Stop in and say HI! Our friendly, knowledgeable staff can help you schedule an appointment or answer any questions you may have about our practice.
We know that many people simply don’t have time during the work week for a trip to the dentist, so our office has extended hours and Saturday hours to make it more convenient for you.
We offer expert general and preventative dental care as well as cosmetic dentistry. There’s no need to go anywhere else!Â
As a former adjunct clinical professor of Restorative Dentistry at temple University’s Kornberg School of Dentistry and a Fellow of the Academy of General Dentistry (a status that only 3% of all dentists have achieved), Dr. Eidelson brings clinical expertise in oral dentistry and complex cosmetic dentistry procedures including implant dentistry.
He continues to learn about some of the most advanced and innovative dental procedures and offers the best products and treatments that he can for his patients, including Cerec, a computer used to fabricate crowns on the same day, and PerioLase Laser Technology that supports the LANAP protocol for the treatment of gum disease.
Dr. Eidelson was rated Philadelphia’s #1 Top-Rated Cosmetic Dentist by the Philadelphia Yellow Pages Top Ranked Businesses and has incredible patient reviews!
Dr. Eidelson continues his education by traveling around the world to familiarize himself with teaching techniques in such places like the Dominican Republic, Tokyo, Austria, and all across the United States.
Traveling worldwide has inspired him to give back. In 2017 he joined a team of 25 of the top dentists in the United States to travel to Santo Domingo where the team performed an incredible 800 dental implants in 1 week to help patients in need.
In October of 2022, Dr. Eidelson completed advanced training in Periolase dental laser technology and the LANAP protocol.
