DR. DON MALIZIA
Dr. Malizia left general dentistry to join Dr. Barry Glassman at the Allentown Pain Center. After extensive training with well known restorative gurus, Dr. Malizia attended a Glassman Seminars course and, after studying the supportive literature, started studying regularly in Allentown and never looked back. Together they forged the development of an evidence based conservative treatment model for patients with orofacial pain, joint dysfunction and sleep disorders. Don’s many roles included development and maintenance of the extensive library that is used today in all of our teaching efforts. Don currently is the primary provider for the Allentown Pain and Sleep Center, and continues to partner with Barry in their goal to educate general dentists in the evidence based model and an ideal learning environment.
