A lifelong resident of the Woodbridge area, Dr. D’Apolito’s office is about one mile each way from where he grew up in Port Reading to where he graduated from Woodbridge Senior High School. He has been committed to this area his whole life and has been in practice for nearly four decades. He treats his patients not just as patients, but on an individual, personal level that all can relate to.

With a solid educational background, Dr. D’Apolito graduated with his Bachelor of Science degree from Northeastern University College of Pharmacy in 1978.

He was elected to the prestigious Omicron Kappa Upsilon Dental Honor Society and the Rho Chi Pharmacy Honor Society.

Wanting to pursue a career in dentistry, he earned his Doctor of Medicine in Dentistry degree from the University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey in 1983, where he graduated in the top 10% of his class. He completed a Postgraduate Certificate in the Diagnosis and Management of Orofacial Pain and TMJ Dysfunction from the same educational venue, as well as received such awards as the American College of Stomatologic Surgeon’s Award and the Italian Dental Society of New York Scholarship Award. 

Passionate about staying up to date on the latest technological advances in dentistry, Dr. D’Apolito remains an active member of the New Jersey Dental Association, the American Dental Assistants Association, the American Dental Association, and the Middlesex County Dental Society.

His favorite and most exciting professional experience was a TV news special filmed at his office with Art McFarland of ABC’s Eyewitness News. Eyewitness News’s Roz Abrams said during the TV commentary: “The dentist of your dreams”, “You’ve got to see it to believe it”, and “How going to the dentist can bring you to another world”.

Dentistry, also known as Dental and Oral Medicine, is a branch of medicine that consists of the study, diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of diseases, disorders, and conditions of the oral cavity. Dentists diagnose and treat dental issues and help patients develop better oral hygiene regimens. They clean teeth, correct bite issues, perform surgeries and extractions, and perform other duties to ensure that the teeth and mouth are healthy.  

Attributing his success to parental upbringing, dedication, perseverance, and benevolence, Dr. D’Apolito has a trademark for “Tooth or Consequences”, the dental informative newsletter he publishes. 

In his spare time, he enjoys sporting events such as football, soccer, basketball, baseball, and hockey. His favorite professional teams are the New York Yankees, the Buffalo Bills, the New York Knicks, the New York Rangers, and the New York Red Bulls. His favorite college basketball and football teams are the Syracuse Orange. 

He also loves swimming, traveling, and snorkeling in the Caribbean Islands and participates in multiple fantasy sports leagues. He has a Black Belt in Taekwondo and has also trained in other martial arts such as Hapkido and Shotokon. He currently works out regularly and walks anywhere from 20 to 45 miles per week as part of his exercise program. He loves animals, especially dogs.
