About Mary A. Flanagan

Celebrating 23 years in practice, Dr. Mary Flanagan is passionate about pediatric dentistry. For the 14th year, she is honored to be selected by her peers as a Jersey Choice Top Dentist. Dr. Flanagan, along with pediatric dentists Drs. Kimberly Hollywood, Erin Power, and Danya Shabi and their warm, friendly staff, is devoted to caring for patients’ individual dental needs.

The practice focuses on promoting oral health through dental education, starting at age one, with a complimentary infant exam up to eighteen months. Prevention is extremely important, including proper brushing, fluoride, and healthy snacks. “It’s always a pleasure watching children grow into young, motivated adults who realize the importance of good oral health,” says Dr. Flanagan.

Dr. Flanagan’s all-female practice offers a personal touch to children of all ages. As women and mothers, the staff members are skillful at soothing frightened children and navigating emergencies. The inviting space includes sofas and video games and plenty of room for parents to join their children during exams.

As the continuing education co-chair for the New Jersey Academy of Pediatric Dentistry, Dr. Flanagan recognizes the importance of education for dentists and staff. She and her team are involved in promoting dental education and staying abreast of the latest technology and research, and they often participate in dental education at local schools.
