Why Become a Patient?

Our practice has been serving Scotch Plains and the communities around it for more than 65 years.

Founded in 1959 by Dr. Robert Scalera, this family-oriented practice has become the dental home of more than 2,000 active patients.  Our doctors and team members, some of whom have been with the practice for over 10 years, are committed to providing our patients with the highest standards of care through patient-centered visits and personalized treatment plans.

We understand that a dental office might not be everyone’s favorite place. So we aim to make all patient experiences as pleasant and painless as possible. Because we know that unexpected issues might arise that require immediate attention, we offer same day emergency visits, including the immediate treatment of pain, broken teeth, and denture repairs.

When you come to our practice, our aim is to get to know you as a person and not just a patient. We pride ourselves on learning about your lives, your families, and all the things that put a smile on your face — a smile that we are happy to care for!
