Convenient Access from Lenola
From the Lenola firehouse it is a quick 2.9-mile drive, usually 7 minutes, to Dental Arts Group on Maple Avenue in Pennsauken Township. Most of that trip is a single county road, which makes us an easy dentist near Lenola for school-day checkups and quick adult visits alike. Our dentists provide gum care, cleanings, fillings and clear aligners at one address. Tuesday through Friday the office opens at 8:00 AM.
Start at the Lenola Volunteer Fire Company, Station 313, at 229 North Lenola Road. Head down Lenola Road to West New Albany Road, then turn west on Camden Avenue, which is County Route 537. The same road crosses the North Branch of Pennsauken Creek into Maple Shade as Main Street, passes the NJ 73 interchange, and becomes Maple Avenue in Pennsauken. Continue across Haddonfield Road to 7675 Maple Ave, Pennsauken, NJ 08109, just past the intersection, and neighbors in Maple Shade and the rest of Moorestown are close by as well.
Lenola Families on Pennsauken's Doorstep
Lenola is the west side of Moorestown Township in Burlington County, an unincorporated community whose addresses carry a Moorestown 08057 mailing address. Its history runs deep: the Cowperthwaite homestead at King's Highway and Lenola Road dates to 1742, and the neighborhood fire company marked 100 years of service in 2022. Learn more about the wider township on the About Moorestown page.
For households here, the practical point is distance. A dental office seven minutes down one road is close enough to fit a cleaning between school pickup and dinner. Children here attend the Moorestown Township School District, and an afternoon visit can follow the school day without a long drive home.
Lenola Road also meets NJ 38, Moorestown's busiest highway, and NJ Transit buses run from the Moorestown Mall to the Walter Rand Transportation Center in Camden. Still, the shortest way to our office skips the highway entirely and follows Camden Avenue west. That keeps the drive calm even when NJ 38 is crowded at rush hour.
Every new patient's first appointment is The DAG Comprehensive Exam. It combines digital x-rays, a periodontal exam, intraoral photography, an oral cancer screening and a review of any existing fillings or crowns. That full picture becomes the basis for every recommendation that follows.
What Parents and Adults in Lenola Should Know Before Booking
Gum health is easy to overlook because early gum disease rarely hurts. Bleeding while brushing, puffy gums or persistent bad breath are signals worth a visit. Our Patient Education library covers periodontitis, bad breath and flossing in plain language for anyone who wants to read up first.
For kids, prevention is the main event. Cleanings, digital x-rays and sealants, ideally starting around age six, protect teeth through the elementary years. A recurring theme in our site reviews is children who prefer our office, and that comfort makes the next visit easier for everyone.
Teens and adults thinking about straighter teeth can explore clear aligners. Our Invisalign learning center describes Invisalign as best for older teens and adults, and it requires wearing aligners at least 22 hours a day. A teen who is ready for that commitment can start with a free consultation and a digital scan.
New patients without insurance can start with our $99 Cleaning, Exam & X-Ray special. It covers a full dental cleaning, an oral health exam and all standard x-rays, and it applies when no periodontal disease is present.
Scheduling around school and work is simple. Monday hours run from 9:00 AM to 7:00 PM, Tuesday through Thursday from 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM, and Friday from 8:00 AM to 1:30 PM. A Monday evening slot works well for a parent coming home from work, while an early Friday visit leaves the afternoon free.
Care That Makes Us a Trusted Dentist Near Lenola
Healthy Gums
Each visit includes a gum screening. When pockets have deepened, scaling and root planing cleans below the gumline over about two visits under local anesthesia. The DAG Periodontal Disease Program then schedules a re-evaluation one month later.
Cavity & Disease Prevention
Routine check-ups and cleanings, digital x-rays, sealants and oral cancer screening make up our prevention program. These visits suit busy families because they catch small issues before they need bigger repairs.
Invisalignยฎ
SmartTrack aligners are planned from a digital 3D scan. Patients switch aligners about every two weeks, and treatment time varies by case.
Cavity Repair
Tooth-colored composite fillings fix cavities without a silver look. Larger repairs use digital ceramic crowns, and root canal therapy, when needed, is usually one visit with local anesthesia.
As kids grow into their late teens, wisdom teeth become part of the conversation. Our oral surgery services cover impacted and wisdom teeth and other extractions, and the consultation may include x-rays or CT scans. Dental sedation is available during oral surgery for patients who want it.

What Others Are Saying
The team here are professional, friendly, and technologically savvy. The use of newer equipment to help get me in and out quicker was appreciated. The team is knowledgeable and quick to answer whatever questions I have. They found a small cavity and I was able to stay and get it taken care of right after my cleaning. 5 star service, I highly recommend.

I have been going here for years! The hygienist is the best. I never have any discomfort when cleaning and he does a great job. The doctor has taken over this practice and she is so nice, very thorough and up-to-date on the latest technology and procedures! My kids have tried other dentists and prefer Dental Arts Group in Pennsauken!
Sharon M.
Very understanding team. I highly recommend them. They are a fine group of people.
Dolly M.
I recently had my first cleaning at Dental Arts Group in Pennsauken and the experience was fantastic. I asked them about an issue with my gums. I have been asking dentists for years and for the first time ever I got an actual answer! They took the time to actually sit down and teach me about my mouth and what I can do better. Even cooler, they take high resolution pictures with this cool camera of any potential problem areas so that at my next cleaning they can compare to see if it’s getting better. I feel like I’m in such great hands here I will definitely be back!

Frequently Asked Questions
How far is Dental Arts Group from Lenola, and how do I get there?
We are 2.9 miles from the Lenola Volunteer Fire Company, roughly 7 minutes by car. Lenola Road and West New Albany Road lead to Camden Avenue, which runs west as Main Street and then Maple Avenue. Families who want a dentist near Lenola can follow that one road nearly the whole way to 7675 Maple Ave.
How often will I need cleanings after gum disease treatment?
Every three months is common at first. After scaling and root planing, the DAG Periodontal Disease Program includes a re-evaluation one month later. From there, periodontal maintenance cleanings may increase to every three months to keep the gums stable, and the long-term schedule depends on how your gums respond.
Is a deep cleaning uncomfortable?
Most patients find it manageable, because the area is numbed with local anesthesia before the cleaning starts. The work is usually split into two visits, so each appointment covers only part of the mouth. Your gums may feel tender for a short time afterward, and the re-evaluation one month later checks how they have healed.
Does bad breath mean I have gum disease?
Not always, but persistent bad breath can be a sign of periodontitis. Food, dry mouth and other causes play a part too, so an exam is the way to find out. Our dentists screen your gums at each visit, and our Patient Education pages explain bad breath and periodontitis in more detail.
Can I email the office with a question?
Yes. The office email is pennsauken@dagsmiles.com, which works well for non-urgent questions about insurance, forms or scheduling. For a new appointment, the Book Appointment button on our website lets you pick a time online. Anything urgent, like a toothache or a broken tooth, is better handled with a phone call.
