SPEAKER BIOS

Charles Spitz, DDS was born and raised in Cleveland, Ohio. He went to undergrad at The Ohio State University. He always, from his youth, wanted to work with children and decided to become a pediatric dentist. He attended dental school at Case Western Reserve University. After dental school he served in the U.S. Army from 1967-1969. He is a decorated Vietnam War Veteran and was presented the Bronze Star Medal for his service. After returning home from Vietnam, he attended his residency in pediatric dentistry at Case Western Reserve University. 

​Upon graduation from his pediatric residency, Dr. Spitz and his wife, Beth, moved out West to San Francisco. Dr. Spitz was hired as the director of the Pediatric Dentistry graduate program at Children’s Hospital Medical Center in Oakland. He started his own practice in the Mission District of San Francisco in 1975 and has served Bay Area patients ever since. In 1985, Dr. Spitz opened the current office in San Mateo where he has practiced for over 40 years. 

Tyler Davis DMD, married the love of his life, Kimmie, and moved to the Bay Area in 2012.  Kimmie is a native of the Peninsula and grew up five minutes away from Dr. Davis’ current office location. Dr. Davis and his wife have 4 children, Charlotte, TJ, Maysie and Ella which keep them busy all year long. Dr. Davis and his two brothers are all pediatric dentists. It is safe to say dentistry runs in the enamel in his family. His brothers and father practice together in Tucson, AZ.

​He is an avid dental literature reader and is proactive on staying up to date on all the newest materials and equipment in the dental field.
