Dr. David Paulussen grew up in Wayne, New Jersey. He attended Fairleigh Dickinson University and did so well academically that he "skipped" his senior year of college and was accepted early admission at The Universty of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey. Dr. Paulussen graduated UMDNJ in 1985 and worked in dental offices in Vernon and Ledgewood, NJ. In 1988 he opened this office with the help of his wife Janice, and mother, Marjorie, a registered nurse who helped answer the phone and assist patients. Gradually, the practice continued to grow and attract the wonderful staff members that we have today.
