Whether you need routine dental care, sedation dentistry options or cosmetic dentistry, we have you covered. We provide regular dental exams and cleanings, as well as many other general dental services, for both children and adults. For individuals who feel anxious at the dentist, we offer dental care with sedation options. We also offer our patients in Short Hills, Livingston and West Orange cosmetic dentistry treatments, including: dental implants to replace damaged or missing teeth; dentures for patients with a number of missing teeth; porcelain dental veneers to conceal dental imperfections, with natural-looking results; a clear teeth-straightening system; and teeth-whitening treatment to combat surface stains and teeth discoloration, for lighter, brighter teeth.

Patient Education

Our experienced dentists are also committed to making sure our patients are informed about their various dental treatment options. At Northfield Dental Group, we believe that thorough patient education is the foundation that allows our patients to make informed decisions about which dental treatment to pursue. We offer a host of educational resources for our patients, which include topics such as how oral piercings affect oral health and the benefits of fluoride.

Patient Safety

At Northfield Dental Group, we value our patients’ safety. We take every precaution available to help our patients stay safe while receiving dental treatment. For instance, we never use mercury amalgams, or silver fillings. We also limit your exposure to radiation and use alternative diagnostic methods whenever possible. We realize that delivering excellent dentistry results does not mean anything if we fail to keep our patients safe.
