Take a tour of our office before your first visit.
We are proud to offer dental services for special needs patients. It is important to us that each and every patient feels comfortable coming to the dentist.
The most common anesthetic we use is a local anesthetic. This blocks pain in a specific area of the mouth. We often apply a topical anesthetic to numb the area before we give the injection.
Testimonials
My kids and I love going to Star Pediatrics!! The hygienist is so great with kids and my children look forward to going. it is clean and very inviting to children. The office has a theater room while they wait, they get to watch their favorite shows during cleanings, and get a token to use for a small toy when they leave. My children love getting the new toothbrush along with tooth paste and kid flossers. Who knew going to the dentist was so much fun!

I have been bringing my son to Star Pediatric Dentistry for a few years. They have always been so kind and go out of their way to make sure my son is comfortable. I had to bring my son in for dental work today and lately he has been nervous to go to doctors, dentists, etc...it took a while to get him into the office, but once we made it to the waiting room the staff was just wonderful. They really took their time with him and did everything to ensure he was relaxed. They even had him laughing at one point! I am so thankful for the patience and kindness of everyone in this office!!!

The staff at Star Pediatric are excellent. My son was petrified of the dentist and wouldn’t even let other dentists look in his mouth but thanks to Star Pediatrics he’s not scared anymore and actually tells his friends how he loves his dentist. He even had surgery last year and everyone took such great care of him, I can’t give this office enough praises, they are all really wonderful.

Dr. Verma and his staff are fantastic. We have been going to Star Pediatric for over 6 years and we are always greeted with smiles and kindness. Everyone is patient and does a great job keeping the kids at ease.
My son had an emergency one evening and Dr Verma met us at his office after hours. They really care about their patients and always go above and beyond. Highly recommend Star Pediatric Dentistry. You won't be disappointed.

My almost 2 year old just had her first ever dentist appointment at Star Pediatric Dentistry of Manalapan. I was nervous because I expected her to freak out with a stranger so close to her but she did great! The hygienist, whose name I unfortunately didn’t catch, was amazing. She was so nice and made my daughter so comfortable. She showed her every tool and let her touch them before they were used. The dentist, Dr. Donahue, was also so nice and great with my daughter. Overall, an unexpectedly awesome first dental experience!!!
