About This Provider

Dr. Patrick Fitzgerald holds a specialty certificate in Endodontics from the University of Illinois at Chicago College of Dentistry, completing his advanced training in 2006 after earning his Doctor of Dental Surgery in 2002. He founded Park Ridge Endodontics in 2007 and opened Best Endodontics of Mt. Prospect in 2020, giving patients in Chicago's northwest suburbs two dedicated endodontic locations. Dr. Fitzgerald currently serves as president of the Chicago Dental Society NW Side Branch, a peer-elected leadership role that reflects his standing in the regional dental community. In the operatory, he uses a surgical microscope and Cone Beam CT imaging to plan and perform root canals, retreatments, and periapical surgery with a level of precision that general dentistry instruments cannot match. Patients describe him as a clear communicator who explains what to expect before, during, and after treatment and who remains reachable for follow-up concerns. Multiple reviewers report that Dr. Fitzgerald identified the true source of their tooth pain after previous providers had not, making him a trusted specialist for complex or recurring endodontic problems in the northwest Chicago suburbs.
