Meet Dr. Michael Scalia
The artist and architect
of your smile
As an undergraduate, Dr. Michael Scalia earned his BA in Economics from Rutgers University, but a growing desire to make a direct impact on people’s lives led him to healthcare. After completing his post-baccalaureate program for pre-health professionals at Rutgers, he chose dentistry as his calling.
Dr. Scalia earned his DDS from Stony Brook School of Dental Medicine and completed a General Practice Residency at Morristown Memorial Hospital. Driven by the challenge of combining art and science, he pursued specialized prosthodontic training at the University of Iowa, followed by a year-long surgical implant fellowship at Loma Linda University.
The pursuit of excellence
Dr. Scalia is dedicated to staying at the forefront of dental advancements, completing over 100 hours of continuing education annually in areas such as implant dentistry, full mouth restorations, cosmetic dentistry, and more. This ongoing training ensures his patients receive the most advanced and effective care.
Since 2012, Dr. Scalia has proudly served Lawrenceville, Hamilton, and Ewing, building meaningful relationships with his patients. His expertise allows him to help every patient, from routine cleanings to complex cases, with personalized, high-quality care that meets their individual needs.
A love of fitness and family
When he’s not in the office, Dr. Scalia enjoys staying active by playing tennis and participating in boot camp workouts. He and his wife, Angela, love exploring cities, gardening, and dining out at local restaurants. Their family dogs often come to the practice, Mia is frequently there, while Bella loves keeping Dr. Scalia company in his private office after hours when reviewing cases.
His dedication to excellence, innovation, and compassionate care embodies the core values of Lawrenceville Smiles, ensuring each patient receives exceptional care.
