Convenient Access from Delran
US 130 carries most of the 13 minutes between the Delran municipal building and Dental Arts Group, a family practice on Maple Avenue in Pennsauken Township. Parents searching for a dentist Delran, NJ kids can see without a long haul will find checkups, sealants, wisdom tooth care and root canal treatment under one roof. Our dentists see patients Monday through Friday, with Monday hours until 7:00 PM.
From the Delran Township Municipal Building at 900 Chester Avenue, head south on Chester Avenue to US 130 and follow Burlington Pike south. Merge onto NJ 73 south for a short distance, then take the Haddonfield Road ramp south into Pennsauken. Turn right on Maple Avenue to reach 7675 Maple Ave, Pennsauken, NJ 08109, a 7.2-mile trip that ends just west of Haddonfield Road. Families in Riverside and Cinnaminson share much of the same US 130 route.
Where Delran Families Fit In
Delran takes its name from the Delaware River and Rancocas Creek, which frame the township on two sides. The township stayed mostly farmland well into the 1800s, and Route 130, once the Burlington Turnpike, later carried in shops and new neighborhoods. Bridgeboro, on Rancocas Creek, was the most developed early settlement, with a ferry running there from 1749. Today it is a Burlington County community built around families, with Swedes Lake, Conrow Road Park and Amico Island Park among the places kids spend their weekends.
That family focus shapes how we approach Delran patients. Parents often want one office that can see a six-year-old for sealants, a teenager for wisdom teeth and themselves for a crown, without juggling three schedules. Our dentists treat every age at the same Maple Avenue address, so a single phone call can line up the whole household.
Kids who know what to expect tend to settle into the chair more easily. Our Patient Education topics cover flossing, brushing technique, sealants, bad breath and tooth anatomy, which gives parents a simple way to reinforce good habits at home. Reviews on our site mention kids who now prefer coming to our office.
Dental Priorities for Delran Students, Athletes and Parents
The Delran Township School District runs Millbridge Elementary, Delran Intermediate, Delran Middle and Delran High School, and Holy Cross Academy draws students from around the region. With school, practices and games filling the calendar, the easiest time for a checkup is often the first or last slot of the day. Tuesday through Friday the office opens at 8:00 AM, and Monday appointments run until 7:00 PM.
Youth sports bring their own dental risks, from a chipped front tooth on the field to a knocked tooth during practice. When something happens, our $69 Exam & X-Ray special for new patients covers a full oral health exam, all standard x-rays and treatment recommendations. It was designed for emergencies and overdue checkups alike.
The teen years bring a different set of questions. Wisdom teeth may need an evaluation, and older teens who want straighter teeth can talk with us about clear aligners. Parents juggling college visits and senior-year schedules appreciate getting those decisions made on a timeline that works for the family.
The River LINE runs along St. Mihiel Drive without stopping in the township, so riders use the nearby Riverside and Cinnaminson stations or NJ Transit buses 409, 417 and 419. For a dental visit, most families simply drive US 130, the main highway through town. Rush hour on US 130 can add time, so leave a little early for a morning appointment.
Family Care From a Dentist Delran, NJ Parents Can Rely On
Cavity & Disease Prevention
Check-ups, cleanings and digital x-rays form the base of every child's care. Sealants are ideally placed from about age six, as permanent teeth come in, to shield the grooves of the back teeth.
Oral Surgery
Impacted and wisdom teeth, extractions and bone grafting are all part of our oral surgery services. The consultation may include x-rays or CT scans so the plan is clear before the day of treatment. Dental sedation is available during oral surgery.
Endodontics
A deep cavity in a baby tooth can sometimes be treated with a pulpotomy or pulpectomy instead of pulling it. For adults and teens, root canal therapy and endodontic retreatment relieve infection and save the tooth. Lingering sensitivity to hot or cold is one sign worth checking.
Invisalign®
SmartTrack clear aligners start with a digital 3D scan instead of messy impressions. Aligners change about every two weeks and need to be worn at least 22 hours a day. Our learning center describes them as best for older teens and adults.
Teeth Whitening
Professional whitening brightens a smile ahead of senior portraits, prom or a wedding. Take-home whitening is also available for parents who would rather work on it in the evening after the kids are in bed.
Parents new to our office usually start with The DAG Comprehensive Exam, the standard first visit for every new patient. It covers a health history review, digital x-rays, a periodontal exam, an oral cancer screening and a cavity check under 2.5–6.0x magnification. The full exam is typically repeated every three to five years, with routine check-ups and cleanings in between.

The team here are professional, friendly, and technologically savvy. The use of newer equipment to help get me in and out quicker was appreciated.

Toni L.
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 Delran, and how do I get there?
The office is 7.2 miles from the Delran Township Municipal Building, or about 13 minutes by car. Chester Avenue leads to US 130 south, then a short run on NJ 73 brings you to Haddonfield Road and Maple Avenue. Many parents find that a dentist Delran, NJ families can reach this directly makes regular checkups much easier to keep.
Can I book a dental appointment online?
Yes. The Book Appointment button at the top of our website opens an online booking portal, so you can choose a time without calling during work hours. That is handy for parents who plan family checkups late at night once the kids are asleep. The front desk can also schedule by phone if you prefer.
What should I do if my child knocks out a permanent tooth?
Act quickly and call the office right away. Pick the tooth up by the crown, not the root, and if it is dirty, rinse it gently without scrubbing. Try to set it back in the socket, or keep it in milk on the way in. The sooner the tooth is seen, the better its chance of being saved.
What does a family DAG Prime membership include?
Each member gets an annual comprehensive exam, six-month check-ups with cleanings and x-rays, and two emergency exams. There are no deductibles, no copays and no annual maximum, and general treatment is 20% off. The family plan is one of four options, alongside single, couple and periodontal plans, for households without traditional dental insurance.
Can a baby tooth with a deep cavity be saved?
Often, yes. When decay reaches the nerve of a primary tooth, a pulpotomy or pulpectomy can treat the infection while keeping the tooth in place. Baby teeth hold space for the adult teeth coming in behind them, so keeping a healthy one until it falls out naturally helps protect your child's bite.
