Dr. Bertolotti received his DDS degree from the University of California, San Francisco, after working as a PhD metallurgical and ceramic engineer at Sandia National Laboratories. He is currently clinical professor in Biomaterials Science at the University of California and conducts a private practice in San Leandro. Much of his private practice is involved with conservative crown and bridge techniques and adhesion dentistry. He is a Fellow of the American Academy of Dental Materials, a Fellow of the American College of Dentists, a Fellow of the Pierre Fauchard Academy, and an Accredited member of the Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry. Perhaps best known for introducing “total-etch” to North America in 1984, he also introduced Caries Detector in 1984, Panavia in 1985, tin plating in 1989, and self-etching primers in 1992. The sectional Contact Matrix system, "MicroPrime," "Microetcher" sandblasting, and intraoral tin-plating are also his innovations. Dr. Bertolotti has published extensively in journals such as the ADA, International Journal of Prosthodontics, Journal of Dental Research, and Quintessence International, as well as authoring 4 dental textbook chapters. He is a well-known international lecturer, having presented invited lectures in more than 30 countries.
