Why Choose Our Practice?

When it comes to picking a dentist, we know that you have options. Personalized, gentle, comprehensive patient care is our number one priority.

Here are just a few things that make our practice unique:

 Good Oral Hygiene

After more than 20 years of providing pediatric dentistry in Chatham, New Jersey, we’re proud to say that we know how to keep kids smiling and their teeth healthy. By promoting good oral hygiene at an early age, 95% of our children do not experience cavities or fillings before the age of 18.

 More Laughs at the Dentist

When a dentist loves dinosaurs as much as kids do, you know that there’s going to be fun! We provide a relaxed, child friendly environment where parents are welcome to sit chair side with their children.  The office of Dr. Kotkin isn’t just for keeping your teeth clean and healthy, it’s a new adventure every visit.

 Fright Free Dental Visits and Hospital Dentistry

The dentist can be scary for any age, which is why Dr. Kotkin makes it his mission that every child is comfortable during their dental appointments. We use a gentle touch every time, keeping discomfort to a minimum and teeth their happiest. For those who are still anxious or have special needs, Dr. Kotkin practices hospital dentistry upon request. The patient will be placed under general anesthesia and monitored by an anesthesiologist.

Allergy Conscious

Dr. Howie’s children suffer from many allergies, and we are free of the following common allergens: nut, gluten, dairy, egg, soy and latex.
