Drive times measured in Google Maps on September 3, 2026, from the centre of each town, fastest route. Practice details verified against each practice’s own website on September 3, 2026. License and permit status is what the New Jersey State Board of Dentistry’s public register showed on September 3, 2026, looked up by name; not found by us is a fact about our search, not about the surgeon. Board certification is printed as each practice states it on its own website; Not published means the website does not state it.

What the State Record Shows

New Jersey licenses dentists through the State Board of Dentistry, and its public register lists, for each person, the dentist license, any specialty permit, and any general anesthesia permit, each with a status. On September 3, 2026, we ran every surgeon named on this page — eighteen people — through that register by name.

Sixteen of the eighteen show an Active dentist license and an Active general anesthesia permit at a town where the practice says they work. The other two, David Mann and Odai Abushanab at Warren Oral Surgery, show Active licenses and Active general anesthesia permits under their names at other New Jersey addresses, and we have not confirmed those records are the same people.

The register also shows an Active oral and maxillofacial surgery specialty permit for Steven J. Silverman, Kurt Notarnicola, Karl Maloney, Alan Hecht, Petar Hinic and Daniel Sullivan. Where the register showed no specialty permit under a surgeon’s name, the table says not found by us. That is a fact about our search on one day, not a finding about the surgeon, and it is a question we are putting to each of those practices; the cell changes the day the practice answers or the register does.

That matters because of the one thing almost none of these practices publish. Of the nine, three name the sedation they offer on their websites: Madison Avenue describes IV sedation performed in the office, Morris Sussex says its staff assist with I.V. sedation, and Morris Oral Surgery names IV sedation and a sedation page. Ridge refers to “several anesthesia and sedation options.” Riverside refers to a “full suite of professional and safe anesthetic services.” Warren lists “Anesthesia & Comfort” as a service. Somerset and Summit each have an anesthesia page that does not name a technique. So if sedation matters to you, the state register tells you who holds the permit, and the phone call tells you what they actually offer.

The Practices

Madison Avenue Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery Associates

Office: 1 Robertson Drive, Suite 19, Bedminster · also 95 Madison Ave, Suite 108, Morristown

Steven J. Silverman, DDS, MD, a Diplomate of the American Board of Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery who has been in private practice for over twenty-seven years by his own account, sees patients at the Robertson Drive office in Bedminster, thirteen minutes from Basking Ridge, as well as in Morristown.

Google’s own answer names a second surgeon at this practice. The practice’s website names only Dr. Silverman, so this guide does too.

Morris Oral Surgery & Implant Center

Office: 201 Littleton Rd #110, Morris Plains

Luke Zambetti, DDS, described on his own site as a Diplomate of both the American Board of Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery and the National Dental Board of Anesthesiology, practices at the Littleton Road office in Morris Plains, nineteen minutes from Basking Ridge, and the practice takes new patients through an online registration form.

Morris Sussex Oral Surgery Associates

Office: 5 Cold Hill Road South, Suite 4B, Mendham · also 22 Howard Boulevard, Suite 201, Mount Arlington

Kurt Notarnicola, DDS, board certified by the American Board of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery in his own words, sees patients at the Cold Hill Road office in Mendham, thirteen minutes from Bernardsville, and at a second office in Mount Arlington; the site does not say which days he is at each.

New Jersey Oral, Maxillofacial & Implant Surgery

Office: 261 Springfield Ave # 203, Berkeley Heights · also 3322 US-22, Suite 1207-1208, Branchburg

Dr. Karl Maloney, a board-certified oral and maxillofacial surgeon with sixteen years in practice, sees patients at the Berkeley Heights office on Springfield Avenue, fifteen minutes from Basking Ridge, and at the Branchburg office on Route 22, which is twenty-one minutes from Basking Ridge and twenty-five from Bernardsville.

Ridge Oral Surgery & Dental Implants

Office: 175 Morristown Road, Ste. 103, Basking Ridge

Prakhar Mehrotra, DDS, MD, Allison DeRenzi, DDS, and Tarandeep Singh, DDS, practice at the Morristown Road office in Basking Ridge — the only oral surgery office inside the Somerset Hills, five minutes from the centre of Basking Ridge and eight from Bernardsville — where the practice uses 3D dental imaging for surgical planning and takes bookings online.

One cell in this row is deliberately blank. The practice’s website describes Dr. DeRenzi as a board-certified oral and maxillofacial surgeon; the practice’s own office, asked in August 2026, listed only Dr. Mehrotra as board certified. Until the practice confirms one answer in writing, we print neither.

Riverside Oral Surgery

Office: 65 Mountain Boulevard Extension, Suite 106, Warren

The Warren office on Mountain Boulevard Extension, open Monday to Friday from 9:00 to 5:00, is one of ten Riverside Oral Surgery locations in New Jersey and New York, staffed from a group of sixteen oral and maxillofacial surgeons; the practice does not publish which of them see patients in Warren.

Somerset Oral Surgery and Dental Implants

Office: 50 Division St, Ste 301, Somerville · also 1220 Route 31, Ste 11, Lebanon

The Somerville office on Division Street, nineteen minutes from Basking Ridge, is where Alan Hecht, DMD, a board-certified oral and maxillofacial surgeon, and Tyler Jacobs, DDS, MD, see patients; the practice also has an office in Lebanon.

Summit Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, PA

Office: 155 Summit Avenue, Summit

Petar Hinic, DDS, who maintains board certification through the American Board of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery according to his own profile, and Matthew Hasday, DDS, practice at the Summit Avenue office, twenty-one minutes from Basking Ridge, and new patients can preregister through the practice’s online registration form.

Warren Oral Surgery and Dental Implant Center

Office: 58 Mt. Bethel Road, Suite 301, Warren

Seven oral and maxillofacial surgeons practice at the Mount Bethel Road office in Warren, fifteen minutes from Basking Ridge, and five of them — Daniel Sullivan, Sejin Bae, Camille E. Marquis, Michael Awadallah and Odai Abushanab — are described on the practice’s own site as diplomates of, or board certified by, the American Board of Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery.

Google’s own answer names a “Dr. Margolis” at this practice. The practice’s website does not, so this guide does not either.

Listed in the Market, Not Checked the Same Way

Aesthetic Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery / Thomas A. Chiodo, DDS, 348 East Main Street, Somerville, about twenty minutes from Basking Ridge. Google and Atlantic Health’s physician directory both list Dr. Chiodo as an oral and maxillofacial surgeon at this address, and the state register shows an Active dentist license, an Active oral and maxillofacial surgery specialty permit and an Active general anesthesia permit in Somerville under his name on September 3, 2026. We could not find a website of his own, and the criteria for the table require one, so he is listed here rather than in it. If the practice publishes a site, or writes to us, the row is added.

Google’s own answer for this area also offers three general dental practices — Dental Care Basking Ridge, Proud To Smile Dentistry in Bernardsville and Dental Associates of Basking Ridge — for extractions and minor oral surgery. None names an oral and maxillofacial surgeon on its website, so none meets the criteria for this page.

Common Questions

Is there an oral surgeon in Basking Ridge or Bernardsville?

One practice: Ridge Oral Surgery & Dental Implants on Morristown Road in Basking Ridge. Everything else on this page is a drive — Bedminster and Mendham inside fifteen minutes, Warren and Berkeley Heights at fifteen to twenty-four, Somerville, Morris Plains and Summit at about twenty.

Do I need a referral to see an oral surgeon?

No. Most patients arrive because a general dentist sent them, but none of these practices requires a referral to book a consultation.

What does an oral and maxillofacial surgeon do that my dentist doesn’t?

An oral and maxillofacial surgeon completes a hospital-based surgical residency after dental school — four to six years, sometimes alongside a medical degree. In practice that means impacted teeth, difficult extractions, implants where bone has to be built first, jaw surgery, pathology, and the ability to give deeper sedation in the office. A general dentist can place implants and remove teeth. The question is not who is allowed to, it is who does it every day.

What should I ask about sedation?

Ask what they offer — local anaesthetic, nitrous oxide, intravenous sedation, general anaesthesia. Ask who administers it and what credential that person holds. Ask whether it is monitored by someone other than the person operating. The state register, described above, tells you who holds a general anesthesia permit; three of these nine websites say what is actually offered, so for the rest it is a phone call.

What will the consultation cost, and is imaging included?

Ask before you book. None of the nine publishes a consultation price, and whether a 3D scan is bundled or billed separately varies between practices.

Do they take my insurance?

None of the nine publishes a list of accepted plans. Call with your plan name and your specific procedure — coverage for oral surgery often splits between medical and dental, and the answer differs by procedure rather than by practice.

Are they taking new patients?

All nine market for them, and all nine publish an online booking, appointment-request or registration path. None publishes a statement about current availability, so if you have a procedure and a timeline, ask when you call.

How far will I actually have to drive?

The table gives measured drive times from the centres of Basking Ridge and Bernardsville. From Basking Ridge, Ridge is five minutes, Bedminster thirteen, and Warren, Berkeley Heights and Mendham about fifteen. From Bernardsville, Ridge is eight and Mendham thirteen; Warren, Somerville, Morris Plains and Summit are twenty-three to twenty-six. Summit clears the line from Basking Ridge, not from Bernardsville.

About This Guide

Everything under the heading that begins this guide is governed by the rules above, on every guide we publish. Where a sponsor’s message appears above that heading, it is paid for and labelled, and it buys nothing in the guide. Garden State Circle is supported by the businesses that participate in it. Participation pays for our ongoing work: keeping a business’s entry accurate, re-checking its record, and publishing a page of its own details that the business maintains. There is no paid placement in this guide. Participation does not buy a place here, a position here, or anything the comparison table says. Nothing on this page is medical advice. Every treatment described here carries risks that depend on your own health and history, and the person to discuss them with is a licensed provider who has examined you.

Garden State Circle is published in New Jersey by Tiffany and Jake Slowinski and covers Bernardsville, Bernards Township (Basking Ridge, Liberty Corner, Lyons), Far Hills, Bedminster (Pluckemin) and Peapack-Gladstone. Contact the publisher at jake@gardenstatecircle.com. How every guide is made, in one place: how every guide is made.

How We Selected These Practices

This guide covers the Somerset Hills — Bernardsville, Bernards Township (Basking Ridge, Liberty Corner, Lyons), Far Hills, Bedminster (Pluckemin) and Peapack-Gladstone.

One oral surgery practice sits inside the Somerset Hills, on Morristown Road in Basking Ridge. The drive-time line then reaches Bedminster, Mendham, Warren, Berkeley Heights, Somerville, Morris Plains and Summit — in that order from Basking Ridge. One Somerville surgeon is listed below the table rather than in it, and the reason is stated there.

How We Checked This

Surgeon names, credentials, addresses and booking paths were taken from each practice’s own website on September 3, 2026. Board certifications are stated exactly as each practice states them. Every named surgeon was looked up by name on the New Jersey State Board of Dentistry’s public license register the same day. Drive times were measured in Google Maps on September 3, 2026, from the centre of each town.

Where a practice does not publish something, this guide says so rather than guessing.

Practice details verified against each practice’s own website and the New Jersey license register on September 3, 2026. Drive times measured September 3, 2026.

Something Wrong, or Something We Should Know?

This guide is maintained, and readers are how it stays current.

If anything here is wrong or has changed — a name, a credential, an address, hours, whether a practice is taking new patients — tell us and we will check it against the practice’s own records.

And if there is something else we should know about oral surgery in these towns, tell us that too. You can attach a photo or a screenshot. Please don’t include personal or medical information.

Practices listed here are welcome to write in directly. A practice that is not listed and believes it meets the criteria above — an office within twenty-five minutes of Basking Ridge or Bernardsville, and a named oral and maxillofacial surgeon on its own website — can write in too, and the row is added when it checks out.
