Meet Dr. John Kitzmiller, III
Opened Apex Dental Group
Dr. Kitzmiller opened this Comprehensive General Dentistry practice in Apex, North Carolina early in 2002.
History
Prior to opening his own practice, he served as an Army Dental Officer and received advanced dental training.
He transitioned to civilian dentistry in 2000 with a successful 2-year associateship with Dr. David Dickerhoff of Spring Lake Dental Group in Spring Lake, North Carolina.
Dr Kitzmiller traveled through Apex and stumbled upon Apex Peak Festival and fell in love with the town. It was then he decided to open his comprehensive dental practice in Apex, NC.
Dentist in the Army
Son of a retired Naval Dental Officer, he followed in his father’s footsteps as a military dental officer.
In 1988, as a commissioned officer in the United States Army, Dr. Kitzmiller graduated from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill School of Dentistry and attended a one year residency at Fort Benning, Georgia.
His assignments include Kaiserslautern, Germany, Fort Sam Houston, Fort Hood, and Fort Bragg. He was also deployed to Zimbabwe, Africa and Bosnia-Herzegovina.
Upon graduating from the Advanced Education in General Dentistry, a 2-Year Program at Fort Hood, he earned the distinction of becoming a board certified dentist in Comprehensive Dentistry by the Federal Services Board.
Following training at the Triangle Dental Institute, Dr. Kitzmiller began offering single tooth implants.
