We are currently closed until May 18th as advised by the State Board of Dentistry and the NJ Division of Consumer Affairs due to the COVID-19 pandemic. We are hoping to be back in the office on May 18th. However, this could change. We have been trying to reach anyone who is scheduled for treatment so that you can be rescheduled or put on a list to be called at a later date for an appointment. Please call our office number 856-455-7111 if you have an urgent dental emergency. Our answering service will take the call and then notify us so that we can call you back to discuss your emergency. Please follow the advice of the authorities and be safe!

On average we each use 14 inches of dental floss annually. If you don’t floss, you miss cleaning 40% of the surface of your teeth which is why dentists recommend that you brush your teeth and floss twice a day.

If you have dental insurance, regularly scheduled teeth cleaning will help you keep your benefits in place, and prevent inadvertently voiding them should more extensive work be needed. If you suffer from anxiety about visiting the dentist, talk to us about how mild sedation will help.
