No matter your New Jersey restorative dentistry needs, DeFabio Dental Design has the experience and technology to transform your smile and make you proud of your teeth.

Using proper treatment planning, we are able to create natural-looking restorations for our patients with form and function that significantly improves their quality of life.
Teeth Whitening One of the simplest and most effective cosmetic treatments we offer our patients from our New Jersey dental office is the highest quality teeth whitening. After years of using the many different teeth whitening techniques, we have chosen the KoR Whitening System. This system is considered the most reliable and effective bleaching system available today. The KoR system utilizes the best of all bleaching options to achieve beautiful, healthy, and natural-looking white teeth.
Dental Bridges We are experts in cosmetic dentistry, proper diagnosis, and planning. If you are missing one tooth or multiple teeth, we will discuss all of your treatment options and help you make the best choice. We offer the most natural-looking restorative dental results while giving our patients the most gentle care. We treat people, not just teeth. If you are interested in a bridge or other cosmetic dental treatment, please contact us and schedule your visit.
Family dentistry We take time to evaluate each patient individually and customize our treatment plan. Understanding form, function, and esthetics are integral components of this process as we discuss dental crowns, dental bridges, onlays, bonding, porcelain veneers, professional teeth whitening, periodontal health, and temporomandibular joint health.

This father-daughter dentist duo is truly world class. Once I even had a dental emergency with one of my children and the doctors responded instantly and so compassionately! Routine teeth cleanings are convenient and kindness emanates from all of the staff.

I have been a patient here since 1996. I can't give Dr. DeFabio and his longtime staff enough praise for their assistance and compassion. I have never been disappointed with anything that has happened between myself and this medical practice. I recommend them to everyone.

I've been going to see Dr. DeFabio for as long as I've had teeth. He and his staff are the nicest people and they really care about their patients. Sonata and Virginija are always so kind when they clean my teeth, and during this last visit they even helped my buy concert tickets that went on sale in the middle of my appointment.

We are willing to travel the 30 miles to get there because you are guaranteed to get THE BEST dental care without question. In addition, cosmetic dentistry is a specialty of Dr. DeFabio and he is a master of this craft. Everyone is professional, friendly and respectful; they speak softly and are there to treat patients with the highest level of skill and professionalism.

Dr. DeFabio is an excellent dentist. I have been going to him for 27 years. He has a great sense of humor but when it comes to his work he is all business. If you don't enjoy going to your current dentist you may want to consider switching to Dr. DeFabio. You will not be disappointed.
