Meet Dr. Anand

Dr. Ruma Anand at Midjersey Smiles

Dr. Ruma Anand is a graduate of the College of Dentistry of New York University, one of the best dental schools in the country. To continuously improve her clinical skills, she attends extensive continuing education programs in different fields, including cosmetic dentistry, orthodontics (Invisalign), and dental implants.

Since graduating, she has attended programs in various prestigious institutions, such as the University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey, Rutgers School of Dentistry, and American Academy of Implant Dentistry. Through training, she stays on top of the latest breakthroughs in dentistry.

Other than competence in the field, she has a genuine concern for her patients. She takes time to listen to their problems and considers every detail of their issue, factoring it in to her diagnosis and prescription. Then, she makes sure patients are aware of and understand the treatment options available to them. This way, patients make a well-informed decision about their oral health.

With her gentle touch, she helps apprehensive patients relax. She also makes sure that nervous ones, especially children, are comfortable in the dental chair. With her friendly staff, she prepares a positive experience for her patients.

Outside of the dental office, she enjoys skiing, playing pool, and spending precious time with her husband and daughter, Samaira.

I’ve had a broken tooth for a while and wanted to get it fixed before I lose my dental insurance. I decided to make an appointment with Dr. Anand because 1. Conveniently close and 2. Great reviews. I was actually 5 min. late and they basically took me as soon as I sat down. I got a full exam and a teeth cleaning because I’m a new patient and it was very thorough and she was so kind. The Dr. came in and explained I needed a filling for the broken tooth and two other teeth. She explained everything in full detail and even showed me the images of each tooth. The receptionist came right to my chair and explained everything my insurance covered and told me the cost before anything was done. At first she only had time for one tooth and then she decided to fill the other two. She explained everything she was doing, worked quickly but efficiently and made me comfortable when I felt a little pain on one tooth. She even put Vaseline on my lips because they were cracking! I was there for 3 hours and got everything done that I needed done, which is unusual for any medical office. Hands down the easiest and smoothest dentist appointment I ever had! If I ever move out of Old Bridge I would be glad to sit in rt. 18 traffic just to see her again.

I’m not one to look forward to the dentist but the incredibly hospitable staff and Doctor Anand made my trip as pleasant as could be. From the second you walk in you’re greeted warmly. I also really appreciate how they give you the details of everything that’s going to be done both procedurally and financially so you’re well prepared. Other places I’ve been would just do the procedure then throw you a bill.
