Dr. Kroll is a native Californian, born and raised in Northridge. While in his teens, he realized dentistry was the perfect career that would blend his social nature with his love for science and his natural dexterity.

Dr. Kroll graduated in 1982 from Loyola Marymount University (LMU) where he played water polo and earned a Bachelor of Science in Biology. Dr. Kroll began practicing dentistry in Ventura after earning his Doctor of Dental Surgery at the University of Southern California (USC) in 1986.

Dr. Kroll has served as an adjunct professor at UCLA School of Dentistry for over a decade. His focus is on bite engineering and implant biomechanics, teaching graduate dentists at the Center for Aesthetic Dentistry as a part of their two-year residency program. Dr. Kroll also teaches these topics to practicing dentists at The California Implant Institute in San Diego.

Dr. Kroll resides in Ventura, CA with his wife Cathy, a Ventura travel agent. Together they have three children — his eldest, Dr. Stephanie Kroll, works alongside him as a dentist, and his youngest daughter and son are pursuing careers in Veterinary Medicine and Business. In his spare time, Dr. Kroll enjoys surfing, swimming, maintaining his black belt in Tae Kwon Do, and listening to Jazz and Classical music.
