Pecoraro Periodontics

Dr. Melissa L. Pecoraro, DMD, is a highly regarded periodontist who leads Pecoraro Periodontics. The practice is known for providing compassionate and innovative periodontal and implant therapy. Dr. Pecoraro's passion for dentistry began as a teenager while working with her father, who was also a periodontist. She works closely with general dentists and other specialists to provide comprehensive care. Dr. Pecoraro is a graduate of UMDNJ, where she was also chief periodontal resident and a clinical associate professor. She has been recognized as a "Top Dentist" by New Jersey Monthly Magazine for multiple years. The practice operates from two state-of-the-art locations, one in Clark and another in Warren, New Jersey. The facilities are equipped with advanced technology, including 3-D imaging for precise diagnosis. A key service offered is LANAP, as Dr. Pecoraro is a certified clinician for this FDA-cleared laser treatment to regenerate bone and tissue lost to gum disease. The practice is also a family affair, with Dr. Pecoraro's sister serving as the business manager, which allows Dr. Pecoraro to focus entirely on patient care. Patients consistently praise Dr. Pecoraro and her staff for being professional, knowledgeable, and friendly, and for providing a comfortable and respectful experience.
