He has served on the prestigious Committee on Clinical Practice of the American Academy of Periodontology and is a Past President of both the New York State Society of Periodontists and the Long Island Academy of Periodontics. Dr. Cristoforo shares his knowledge of Periodontics and Implant Dentistry through his professional publications and lectures, and he has held teaching positions at the Harvard School of Dental Medicine, SUNY Stony Brook School of Dental Medicine, and Nassau University Medical Center.

Outside of work, Dr. Cristoforo enjoys spending time with his wife, Stella, and their three children.
