“I liked the provider. I was there for a root canal which was miserable. Really not the providers fault cause it’s always a miserable procedure. I liked the staff. ”
Hannah R.December 29, 2025
“Highly recommend. Doctor is an angel. She has a magic in her hand which she shows during the procedure only. She listens your concerns without getting bored. She discusses each and every step before the procedure to make you feel comfortable and relax. I went there for a cracked tooth extraction. I had a very bad experience of tooth extraction 5 years back in Edison. I was very nervous and worried before my appointment. But the doctor extracted my tooth in no time and without any pain/stress. ”

Dr. Kalaria and her staff are wonderful. I have had multiple visits over the last several months and have had incredible care each time. Dr. Kalaria and Johanna take the time to answer questions and fully explain treatment plans. I feel that I am in great hands at American Family Dentistry. I would highly recommend.
