Finding the right dental home for your child goes beyond just clean teeth — it’s about building trust. A dentist who sees your child as more than just a patient and who understands the importance of a calm, gentle approach can make all the difference. Fresh Pediatric Dentistry, located at 39 South Fullerton Avenue, Suite 10 in Montclair, is all about creating that kind of experience. Founded by Dr. Reesha Shah, a board-certified pediatric dentist and local mom, Fresh was created with families in mind. It’s the kind of place your kids will actually want to go to (and that says a lot!). The practice is designed around one simple idea: when kids feel safe and understood at the dentist, they build a positive association with dentistry early on, and they’re more likely to grow into adults who confidently care for their oral health.

About the Practice
Founded by local mom and board-certified pediatric dentist, Dr. Reesha Shah, Fresh Pediatric Dentistry was designed in hopes of creating the type of experience Dr. Shah wanted for her own two children: gentle, thoughtful, and truly family-centered.
After more than a decade of working in both New York and New Jersey, Dr. Shah brought her vision to life in her own Montclair neighborhood. Nationally recognized as one of America’s Top 40 under 40 Dentists by Incisal Edge magazine, Dr. Shah not only brings a wealth of knowledge and experience, but a deep emotional understanding of dentistry and children that shines through in every part of the patient experience.
From the moment you walk through the door, it’s clear that Fresh is anything but a typical dental office. With calming colors, biophilic design elements, and a Montessori-inspired exam room for babies and toddlers, the space was intentionally designed to help kids feel safe and empowered – and to help parents feel at ease.
Thoughtful Care From First Tooth to Teenage Years
It’s not just what Dr. Shah and her team do, but how they do it. From the first hello at the front desk to the way procedures are explained in kid-friendly terms, every detail is about making each person who walks through the door feel comfortable and safe.
Fresh provides comprehensive pediatric dental care for children from infancy through adolescence, with services thoughtfully tailored to each stage of development, including:
