I love being a dentist. I feel like I have the best job in the world! It is the perfect combination of science and art, and it allows me to work with amazing and talented people every day. The relationships we form are a huge part of what makes my job so enjoyable: patients become friends and part of our family.

Personal Life
I grew up in Weehawken New Jersey. Weehawken is known for its world-famous views and unbeatable proximity to Manhattan. Dr. Vivian, my wife, is also a dentist. We decided to move to Fort Lee because we love the location and felt it would be the perfect place to raise our family. We have 4 wonderful children. When I am not working, I enjoy spending time with my family and friends and being outdoors. We like boating and fishing, hiking, and we love to travel!
Me and my wife Vivian, have been a team since 1996 and take great pride in our family practice at Mauriello Dental honesty and integrity is part of the foundation of our core values and principles.
