William A. Lanza, D.D.S./The Dental Institute

Dental care in Bethesda doesn’t have to feel like a chore. William A. Lanza, D.D.S./The Dental Institute sits just off East-West Highway, where the sidewalks stay busy with commuters and weekend errands. The office is at 4330 East-West Hwy Suite 316, tucked between a pharmacy and a coffee shop—easy to spot once you know the building.

Routine cleanings, fillings, and more complex procedures like crowns or root canals are all handled here. Patients also come for cosmetic work such as whitening or veneers, and the practice offers pediatric dentistry for younger family members. Preventive care gets the same attention as restorative treatments, so whether it’s a check-up or a repair, the focus stays on keeping teeth healthy long-term.

Appointments can be scheduled by calling (301) 654-7808. For directions, the map is here: https://www.google.com/maps/place?ftid=0x89b7c96fb5416bd1:0x5c8e58f5487f750c. Bethesda’s mix of old trees and new storefronts makes the walk over feel less like a trip to the dentist and more like part of the neighborhood rhythm.
