Dr. Barry Rosenthal was born and raised in Baltimore, Maryland. He attended the University of Maryland, College Park for his undergraduate studies and earned his D.D.S. degree from the University Of Maryland School Of Dentistry in 1978. Following graduation, Dr. Rosenthal enlisted in the United States Army and served on active duty from 1978 to 1981. He remained in the active reserves until 1986. In 1981, Barry W Rosenthal DDS was established as a 4 operatory dental practice located in Lauderdale Lakes. His practice started to grow rapidly and he realized he could no longer accommodate the expanding number of patients in that office. Dr. Rosenthal decided to look for a larger office and ultimately chose to purchase a vacant piece of property and custom build a larger office.
In 1995 our current office was completed with a total of 12 treatment rooms that has been constantly upgraded throughout the years. Dr. Barry Rosenthal DDS PA has a total of 24 team members many of them with over 20 years of service. Although no longer actively treating patients, Dr. Rosenthal remains an active part of the office and is involved with all the day to day activities of the practice. He volunteers as a Clinical Dental Professor in Miami and is constantly taking courses to stay up to date. When he is out of office he spends much of his time with his family and traveling the world. He has two daughters, two sons, and two granddaughters. His grandchildren’s photos are located throughout the office and they are relentlessly spoiled by their Papa. He established our Dental office as a premier office over the course of almost four decades and continues to maintain the highest standards of excellence.
