On Your Child's Appointment
New Jersey parents can save time ahead of their children's dental appointments at NÜVA Smile Kids. We've made our new patient forms available online for your convenience.
The Importance Of Healthy Smiles For Young Patients
It's almost never too early for your child's first dental appointment. Did you know that multiple dental and medical organizations recommend that all children see a pediatric dentist by age one?
Early dental visits allow a trained pediatric dentist to thoroughly examine your child's mouth and identify any potential issues before they can develop further. By bringing your child in for pediatric dental care, you're laying the foundation for a lifetime of excellent oral health.
Why Early Dental Visits Matter:
Even Baby Teeth Need Regular Care
It's common for parents to think baby teeth don't require the same attention as adult teeth, but the CDC reports the following:
More than 50% of children aged 6 to 8 have had a cavity in at least one of their baby teeth.
–The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention
Get your child on track for a lifetime of great oral health, starting with pediatric dentistry.

I recently visited Nuva smile with my kid, and I must say, we had an exceptional experience. From the moment we walked in, the staff greeted us warmly and made us feel right at home. The dental assistants were gentle and caring, especially with my kid, who can be a bit apprehensive about dental visits. The dentist was knowledgeable, thorough, and took the time to explain everything clearly, putting our minds at ease. We'll definitely be returning for our future dental needs.

Have a Teen
Who Doesn't Want Braces?
Though the “braces phase” is a right of passage for many, we understand that your teen may not be so eager to wear them. Our New Jersey dentists are pleased to offer OrthoFX™ clear aligner treatment as a braces alternative for qualifying teen candidates with mild to moderate tooth misalignment.
Like Invisalign®, OrthoFX aligners are thin, flexible, and virtually invisible against the teeth. They’re worn in a series, with each aligner designed to bring your teeth closer to their ideal position. Patients wear each aligner for about a week before switching to the next in the series. Treatment typically takes 6–18 months, depending on the patient’s degree of misalignment.

After being greeted by our friendly staff, your child will be seen by a gentle, kid-friendly dentist in a private treatment suite for a smooth and successful visit.

By far this is the best dentist office ever. Literally everyone is so welcoming. The staff is so kind and can make you feel so comfortable. My daughter got all 4 of her wisdom teeth taken out and her dentist, as well as the dental assistant, were so supportive, giving her reassurance and encouragement every step of the way. Family friendly environment, thanks for everything

Helping Young Patients Feel Comfortable
Calming Dental Sedation Is Available
People of all ages can get anxious about going to the dentist. Does this sound like your child? NÜVA Smile can help make their next visit a comfortable and positive experience with sedation dentistry.
A number of NÜVA Smile dentists have undergone additional training to administer dental sedation, including nitrous oxide sedation, which is available at select offices. Nitrous oxide sedation is administered through a nose mask—no needles involved—and creates a gentle calming effect that wears off quickly once treatment is finished. If your child has struggled with dental anxiety, sensitive teeth, or trouble sitting still in the dentist’s chair, this option can transform their relationship with dentistry.
Our team can help you determine whether sedation is right for your child and get you scheduled at a convenient office with the right offerings. Send us an online message to get started:
