Mint Dental
When recommending treatment, we go over all possible options with you. We explain to you the advantages and disadvantages of different treatment options, and help you make the BEST decision that is right for YOU. We are in-network with major PPO insurance companies to help offset the cost of dental care.

We understand with busy schedules of work and everyday life, it is hard taking time off to see the dentist. That's why we have late evening hours and Saturday appointments available to accommodate your busy schedules. We're located right across the street from NJ Transit Emerson Train Station. If you commute on the NJ Transit, call us or request online for a late evening dental appointment after work!

I just had an appointment at this practice, and had an excellent experience I thought was worth sharing. Dr. Shah is a very friendly, intelligent, young dentist that explains everything as he works. He also shows before and after digital photos of work performed. This was my first visit since leaving my previous dentist and I am quite impressed by level of professionalism provided by Dr. Shah.
Bone Loss Around Teeth: What you can do to prevent shifting of teeth over time and future cycle of problems. Because there's nothing in your jaw bone stimulating the bone cells, your bone shrinks away (called resorption/atrophy). This ultimately leads to teeth shifting. Your jaw bone needs teeth to keep the bone levels intact.

I'm not someone who generally likes going to the dentist, but my experience at Mint Dental was very pleasant. From the warm greeting to the excellent dental care, I would highly recommend Mint Dental.

Being used to NYC dental offices where hygienists clean and dentists do a cursory 10-second check afterwards, Dr. Shah's performing the cleaning himself while thoroughly describing my individual tooth and gum conditions was a very refreshing experience. He explained my filling and bonding conditions well, and didn't try to upsell any unnecessary treatments. Very pleasant front desk and dental assistant staff.

Dr. Nilay Shah is a very skilled, young dentist who made me feel very comfortable in his care. Doctor-patient communication is very easy with him because he listens. Dr. Shah is also an honest person who will not do procedures that I don't need. I know it from my own experience. He explains everything he does along the way and even checks for mouth cancer during the routine checkup. Everyone in the office is a joy to deal with. I never waited longer than three minutes for my appointment. Parking space is available on both sides of the building!

I actually don't mind going to the dentist now. Everyone is professional, the office is clean and modern. And you get to watch Netflix on a tv mounted on the ceiling. I was in and out within 30 minutes for my cleaning, and that's including x-rays! Best part, I never get nagged for not flossing enough :)

After being recommend to Mint Dental recently, I went in for the first time for a cleaning and an initial examination. I had a very positive experience ---from walking in the front door, to taking x-rays, the staff was courteous, friendly and attentive. Dr. Shah took his time explaining what he saw on my x-rays and his approach to dentistry. I was very comfortable overall and would recommend Mint Dental for anyone looking for a new dental practice.

Today was my first appointment at Mint Dental. I’m usually very nervous but Dr. Shah and his staff made me feel so calm. Dr. Shah is an extremely knowledgeable and gentle dentist! He took the time to explain what his findings were during and after his exam. He listened to my concerns with care and I truly felt like I was in good hands! Make your appointment with Mint Dental today!! You will be so happy you did!
