ESSEX SMILES/Dr Orrico D.M.D F.A.G.D

Dental offices tend to cluster near transit hubs or busy retail strips. This one sits on a quieter block where Van Vorst Street meets the edge of downtown Jersey City. ESSEX SMILES occupies a narrow storefront at 198 Van Vorst St, Jersey City, NJ 07302, steps from the PATH station and a short walk from the waterfront.

General dentistry covers everything from routine cleanings to restorative work. Here, the practice handles preventive care, fillings, crowns, bridges, root canals, and cosmetic treatments like whitening or veneers. Oral surgery and pediatric dentistry are also listed among the services. The office is run by Dr. Orrico, whose credentials include a D.M.D and F.A.G.D designation.

Questions about appointments or specific procedures can be directed to (201) 653-2288. The phone line is typically answered during business hours, though voicemail may pick up outside of those times. No referral is required for most visits, but insurance details are worth confirming ahead of time.
