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
Dr Verma and his staff were very kind and punctual. You can tell that they care about your kids. Highly recommend them.

Star Pediatric Dentistry of Manalapan is the absolute best. The ENTIRE staff is amazing! Dr.Donoghue is unbelievable with my girls! She is always so patient and compassionate. My kids love going to the dentist! Best place and we will be forever clients❤️

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!!!

Dr. Verma is amazing. He is so kind and patient. Amazing bedside manner and very comforting to both children and parents in a dental emergency. The staff overall is warm and friendly. The waiting room has a Pac-Man and Space Invaders! Which my daughter that was awesome. Best pediatric dentist around.

Loved the dr and the practice! Was my son’s first time (ever) at the dentist and he was not anxious- he said after the visit that he wants to be a dentist! That’s a good visit, I must say! Definitely will be our dr moving forward.
