Services
Cosmetic dentistry Designing a naturally beautiful smile is an art. The quality of the materials makes a big difference in how natural your new smile looks. There are many different levels of cosmetic dentistry. They range from simple bonding or porcelain veneers to full oral reconstruction. Our practice offers the highest quality advanced cosmetic dentistry treatments dental implant restorations, dental bonding, porcelain veneers, dental crowns, and dental bridges in New Jersey.
Dental Implants We offer some of the finest dental implant restorations in New Jersey. Our advanced dental implants can replace missing teeth with a restoration that looks completely natural and offers the function of your natural teeth. Dental implants provide tooth root replacements, and the custom restorations blend perfectly with your natural teeth.
Teeth Whitening The teeth whitening we offer is top quality, there is really no comparison to over the counter products. The whitening gel that the KoR system uses is far more powerful than any OTC treatment options. Because the mold is customized for your mouth this allows the gel to be held properly on the teeth, thus making the treatment more reliable.
Dental Bridges We are experts in cosmetic dentistry, proper diagnosis, and planning. If you are missing one tooth or multiple teeth, we will discuss all of your treatment options and help you make the best choice. We offer the most natural-looking restorative dental results while giving our patients the most gentle care. We treat people, not just teeth. If you are interested in a bridge or other cosmetic dental treatment, please contact us and schedule your visit.
Family dentistry We take time to evaluate each patient individually and customize our treatment plan. Understanding form, function, and esthetics are integral components of this process as we discuss dental crowns, dental bridges, onlays, bonding, porcelain veneers, professional teeth whitening, periodontal health, and temporomandibular joint health.

My wife and I been going to DeFabio Dental Design for about 25 years and it is a really great place. The professionalism and friendliness of the whole team is outstanding. Every visit is like visiting friends. We couldn't be happier with the results. Everyone from the dentists to the staff are very friendly and they are doing such a great job! I highly recommend DeFabio Dental Design if you're looking for a dentist's office in the Central NJ area.

I can't say enough great things about this practice. My entire family has been using their services since 1996 when I moved to Colts Neck. We moved 1 hour away 8 years ago and we still make the drive because no other practice comes close. I have yet to see anyone on this staff leave over the years. It's like a family, clearly they are as loyal to the practice as my family is. To me this speaks volumes.

This father-daughter dentist duo is truly world class. Once I even had a dental emergency with one of my children and the doctors responded instantly and so compassionately! Routine teeth cleanings are convenient and kindness emanates from all of the staff.

Highly recommended by a friend for a second opinion, I was delighted to find a competent, and most of all, trustworthy dentist, who will now take care of all my dental needs. I appreciated Sonata's knowledge in her dental expertise.

Dr. DeFabio is the best Colts Neck dentist. My whole family comes here. He takes time and explains everything to me. I can be a nervous patient but treatments are always painless and the staff is so patient and kind. His daughter Dr. Erica is an amazing dentist as well. I love that it's been the same staff for the 6 years I've been coming here.

I have been a patient here since 1996. I can't give Dr. DeFabio and his longtime staff enough praise for their assistance and compassion. I have never been disappointed with anything that has happened between myself and this medical practice. I recommend them to everyone.

From the minute you walk into Dr. DeFabio's office you are greeted by an incredible receptionist. She always makes you feel like you are the most special patient. Then you get to meet Sonata - Love Her! When you are finished you get to see Dr. Defabio - He always spends a few minutes making you feel special. Dr. Fabio's office is ALWAYS on time - Love this because some doctors make you wait forever - I guess some feel our time is not valuable. I have been going to Dr. Defabio for probably 30 years - My family and I speak for everyone would not go to anyone else.
