About Us
Finding Inspiration in Every Smile
Welcome to Metropark Dental!
We are a family-oriented dental practice that strives to provide gentle and compassionate oral healthcare to all our patients. With decades of experience and education, our team provides the highest quality dental services based on latest milestones in dental technology and scientific evidence.
We believe that a strong hygiene program is the best way to help our patients to achieve optimal dental health, so our hygienist Rosemary Segotta - who, in our humble opinion, is the nicest person on Earth - will make sure that you will be able to accomplish this goal with every regular visit.
The practice owner, Dr. Anna Pokrywka (Dr. Anna), has had a lifelong passion for dentistry, having grown up and playing as a child in her grandparents' dental practice in Sandomierz, Poland. She graduated from the Poznan University of Medical Sciences in Poland, where she had been practicing dentistry since 1995. After graduating from University of Medicine and Dentistry New Jersey in 2011 with a degree of Doctor of Dental Medicine, she has practiced dentistry since that time. Dr. Anna is proud to continue the professional tradition of her grandparents. Her son Jan is currently studying dentistry at Rutgers School of Dental Medicine, and after graduation is planning to join our team, hoping to ensure that the family tradition will be sustained for generations to come.

Primum non nocere, or First, do not harm...
My philosophy as your dentist is to find the best way to achieve the balance and harmony in both the aesthetic and the functional characteristic of your teeth. Although we know how to make your smile more beautiful and will make every reasonable effort to do so, your natural teeth will always be your best friends. With that in mind, our goal is the preservation of your dental health through proper hygiene, regular check ups and cleanings, or (if necessary) through application of the least invasive dental procedures available. We want to keep your natural teeth alive and healthy.
When you are in my chair, I will give you the same level of care that I would give my family - because when you walk through those doors, you become part of my family.
