Dentistry is not a job; it is a way of life. I grew up with it, I learned the benefits of it as a small fry, and have continued to be a student of dentistry and will be for life. I am always learning and modifying my techniques and striving to provide for my patients in a fashion that no one else can.
At Clifton Dental Associates, your dental experience matters! We incorporate advanced technology in our practice to save time, provide better information for diagnosis and give our patients a better overall experience. With advanced technology, we can provide our patients with better dental care and more accurate treatment.
Helping every patient get the dental care that they need is our goal. We want you to feel comfortable scheduling the treatments that you need and working towards a better smile. Before treatment is scheduled, we will review all costs involved. With several financial options, we make it as easy as possible for you to find a plan that works with your budget.
Cosmetic dentistry provides several treatment options for improving the appearance of your teeth. If you have discolored, cracked or damaged teeth, your dentist can recommend the best treatment for restoring your smile. Many cosmetic options only require one or two dental visits! One of the best cosmetic options for a damaged tooth is a porcelain veneer!
Tooth restoration options can make life much easier. With a restored tooth, you'll want to smile more and feel more confident in everyday activities! If you are suffering from missing teeth, our team can help! You may be surprised at how easy it is to start down the path towards a brand new smile! One or more missing teeth can lower your self-esteem and make chewing and speaking difficult.

Dr. Kayne is the ultimate professional; the most experienced, caring, knowledgeable, and kind person you will ever meet. I feel honored to be his patient for over 20 years. His expertise spans the latest in all aspects of dental care, with degrees in both general dentistry and oral surgery from the best dental university in the world, coupled with extensive experience in the real world. His level of patient caring is what sets him apart. The Staff at Clifton Dental is priceless, as they emanate their 2 leaders in patient care and expertise. You can spend a lifetime looking for a great dentist,

Clifton Dental Associates is simply the best (and worth any travel)!
There are plenty of reasons why the doctors have been featured in magazines and more. The atmosphere is most friendly and professional with consistent staff. Appointments are timely, yet waiting room is pleasant. Everyone stays current with knowledge and supports each other.
I have been a patient "forever" and my daughter for over 15 years. From handling appointments, paperwork, linking with other professionals as needed, to fabulous hygenists (Linda is ours) & doctors (Dr. Tuckman and Dr. Kayne) we are grateful Clifton Dental

I have been coming here for years (before Kane and Tuckman took over) and have nothing but great things to say. Everything from the facility to the staff are grade A. They are very flexible with your schedule… and are respectful of your time so there is no waiting or sitting around. I highly recommend them and assure you that they will meet and exceed all of your dental needs and expectations.

I have been coming to Clifton dental for almost twenty years. Dr. Kayne and his incredible staff (especially Linda and Janet!) are truly like family. Lorraine and Lara know the patients by name and have always happily greeted me as I came in for my visits. Dr. Kayne knows each member of my family and has always asked us how we were doing in school, life, and eventually career. He even remembers what sports teams we root for! There is a remarkable homey feel when I walk through the office door. Everyone is courteous, professional, and exhibit amazing patient care. I would trust both Dr. Kayne and

Dr. Tuckman is the first dentist I have ever trusted. He is highly professional and takes my dental issues seriously. I have spent many sessions getting route canals with him and he is very empathic. When I have had terrible tooth aches he has returned my pages promptly and gotten me in right away. Linda is a wonderful hygienist. She is highly… professional and careful. She is always helpful and thoughtful. All the staff at Clifton Dental Associates are top notch. They answer the phone right away, which is rare in the medical field. They all care about me and my family. My son was very sick

I’ve been a patient at Clifton Dental Associates for over 30 years. Dr. Kayne and Dr. Tuckman are truly outstanding professionals, continually on the forefront of modern dentistry. What sets them apart is the time they take to get to know their patients, your comfort and care are always their primary focus. Hygienists Linda and Janet are friendly and extremely knowledgeable, and front office staff Lorraine and Lara always take the time to explain your procedures and answer any questions you may have. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for the best dental care possible.

I have been going to see Dr. Kayne and Tuckman at Clifton Dental for 16 years, and my wife has been going there for over 35 years! The entire staff is amazing! They go above and beyond to deliver the best patient experience every time. I know that my 3 children are in great hands now with them as well. If you want to have the best dental care then look no further, and trust that you will receive the best care without ever having to worry about this again. Thank you!!

Clifton Dental Associates is the only dentist I have ever been to and will ever go to. Along with their staff being friendly and responsive, they let you know exactly what you should expect before any procedure begins.
A few years ago I had gotten my teeth whitened there and had an extremely positive experience. Being that I was particularly anxious, I was immediately comforted by the knowledge of those assisting with the procedure. Needless to say, the procedure went smoothly and I would recommend them to anyone; adults and/or children.

I frequently say to my friends and coworkers that this is the best dental office I have ever gone to. Why? Because I find quality, comfort and honesty in their service. Dr. Kayne has been influencial in one of the most difficult decisions in my life. I am thankful to him for that and I immensely enjoy our conversations. But not only...The hygienists are very good, friendly and professional, the office is very clean, the appointments are always prompt on schedule. Needless to say, I plan to continue to use their services, so does my husband, and so will my kids :).

I would highly recommend Clifton Dental Associates. The staff is extremely professional, courteous, and friendly. From the front desk to the hygienists to the doctors I have had nothing but great experiences here for the past 20 years. I am so pleased with the group that I did not hesitate to bring my young son here for his dental care. He loves seeing Janet the hygienist.
You will not go wrong with either Dr. Tuckman or Dr. Kayne!

I have been going to Dr. Kayne at Clifton Dental since I was a little girl(decades!) Going to Clifton Dental feels more like visiting old friends rather than going to the dentist (let's be honest, everyone dreads going to the dentist!) Visiting Dr, Kayne is different, he has a calming demeanor and is very reassuring when you have any dental concerns! Janet is a wonderful dental hygienist and makes each checkup a pleasant experience! I've had my share of dental work over the years and have always been happy with the results! The whole office is wonderful, Cookie and Linda are so nice and Lorraine
