Read full description

Paul J. Rosenblitt, DDS, is a dental practice located at 526 Superior Avenue, Suite 109, in Cleveland, Ohio. The practice is situated in downtown Cleveland near the lakefront, making it a convenient option for professionals working in the central business district and for residents of nearby neighborhoods including Ohio City, Tremont, and Midtown.

The practice offers general and cosmetic dental care. Routine preventive services include comprehensive examinations, professional cleanings, and X-rays—visits that support ongoing oral health and allow for early identification of developing concerns.

Cosmetic dentistry is a focus of the practice.

Dental implants are offered for patients with missing teeth seeking a fixed, permanent replacement that functions like a natural tooth. General restorative care is also available for patients whose needs go beyond routine preventive treatment.

The practice accepts insurance and standard payment methods. New patients can contact the office by phone to schedule an appointment and discuss available services or insurance coverage before their first visit.

Superior Avenue in downtown Cleveland is centrally located and accessible from I-90 and I-77, as well as from RTA transit lines. For general and cosmetic dental care in downtown Cleveland, OH, use the contact details on this page to reach Paul J. Rosenblitt, DDS.

How to Choose a Dentist in Cleveland

Use the ranking as a starting point, then narrow the shortlist based on the kind of care you actually need.

If you want routine or family care

Prioritize review consistency, insurance friendliness, practical hours, and a broad general-dentistry service mix over marketing language alone.

If urgency matters

Confirm same-day capacity, after-hours guidance, and whether the clinic handles urgent restorative work in-house or refers out.

If affordability matters most

Compare financing signals, insurance notes, and the local cost guide. A higher-ranked clinic is not automatically the best value for your specific treatment.

Questions to ask before booking

  • Do you accept my insurance or offer payment plans?
  • Are you taking new patients right now?
  • Do you handle my treatment in-house?
  • What is the total expected cost before treatment starts?
EditorialUpdated July 30, 2026Independently reviewed

This is the short list. Ten providers in Cleveland, Ohio that consistently showed up in the data — not because they paid to be here, but because their patients keep coming back and referring others. If you're weighing options for gum disease treatment in Cleveland, start here.
