A Lake Community's Choice for Whole-Family Dental Care
Mount Arlington became its own borough on November 3, 1890, carved from part of Roxbury, and grew up as a summer resort. Visitors once arrived by train at Landing and crossed Lake Hopatcong by water taxi to grand hotels along the shore. The Lake Hopatcong Yacht Club, founded in 1905 on the Bertrand Island peninsula, still recalls that era with its Adirondack-style clubhouse.
The borough is small, under three square miles in northwestern Morris County, and a fair share of that is water. It borders Jefferson Township and, across the lake, Hopatcong in Sussex County. About 5,900 people lived here at the 2020 census, and the population skews older than its Roxbury neighbors, with a median age near 49. Roughly a third of households are a single person living alone.
Those numbers shape what residents need from a dentist. Adults in their 50s, 60s and beyond are often managing older crowns, a missing tooth or gums that have started to recede. People who live alone tend to value an office that keeps everything in one place, from the cleaning to the specialist gum care, so there is less to coordinate.
Younger families are part of the picture too. Mount Arlington's own district runs the Edith M. Decker School for pre-K through second grade and Mount Arlington Public School on Howard Boulevard for grades three through eight. Those early years are when sealing good habits matters most, and a checkup every six months keeps small cavities from becoming big ones.
That is how our practice works. General dentists, hygienists and periodontists share one office on Route 10 and one set of records for each patient. We also see children and teens, so grandparents can bring the grandkids along when they visit for the summer.
Dental Health Priorities Along Lake Hopatcong
Lake Hopatcong is New Jersey's largest freshwater body, about four square miles with more than 50 miles of shoreline. The Morris Canal Company raised it in 1831 with a dam to feed the canal. Today it shapes life in Mount Arlington, from summer boating to evening walks along the water.
Lake living brings its own dental moments. Swimming at the Mount Arlington Public Beach, where residents swim free and lifeguards are on duty in season, and games of volleyball or bocce on the courts nearby are great fun. A fall on a dock or an elbow during a game can still crack a front tooth, and quick attention gives the best chance of a simple repair.
Restorative care matters most for the borough's older residents. Fillings placed decades ago eventually wear, and crowns can loosen or leak at the edges. A thorough exam every six months shows us which teeth need attention now and which can wait.
Missing teeth are worth addressing sooner rather than later. A gap lets neighboring teeth shift, and chewing on one side can strain the jaw. Implants, bridges and dentures each solve the problem differently, and we walk through all of them before you decide.
How We Care for Patients Seeking a Dentist in Mount Arlington, NJ
Restorative Dentistry
Crowns, bridges and fillings rebuild worn or broken teeth. For adults managing decades of dental work, we prioritize the repairs that protect the most tooth structure.
Periodontal Disease Treatment
Gum disease becomes more common with age and is a leading reason adults lose teeth. Our periodontists treat it on site, so lakeside residents keep their care under one roof.
Cosmetic Dentistry
Whitening and porcelain veneers refresh a smile that has darkened or chipped over the years. Some patients plan cosmetic work ahead of a family wedding or reunion.
Preventative Dentistry
Exams, cleanings and check-up x-rays keep both grandparents and grandchildren on track. Pairing visits for the whole family means fewer trips down Howard Boulevard.
For a missing tooth, dental implants offer a fixed replacement that stands on its own without altering the teeth beside it. Patients bothered by chips, gaps or deep stains can also learn about porcelain veneers, thin custom shells bonded to the front of the teeth.
Meet Your Randolph Dental Team
Both of our dentists earned their degrees at the University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey: Dr. Laura Castro in 1996 and Dr. Michael Schultz in 2001. Dr. Schultz was also a member of the Gamma Pi Delta Prosthodontic Honor Society, which focuses on replacing and restoring teeth.
Insurance & Financing
We accept plans such as Humana and MetLife and will check your coverage at no charge. Residents without insurance can join the Care to Smile Savings Plan, which has no pre-existing condition exclusions, no deductibles and no yearly maximum. New patients without insurance or gum disease can also book a $99 cleaning, exam, x-ray and fluoride visit.

We are open until 7 PM on Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays and until 6 PM on Wednesdays, so a checkup fits easily after the final bell.
Can grandchildren staying at the lake for the summer be seen here?
Yes, we treat children and teens as well as adults. A visiting grandchild with a toothache or a chipped tooth can be examined, and new patients can book our $29 emergency exam and x-ray.

No, we are closed on Saturdays and Sundays all year. Weekday hours start at 8 AM, with evenings until 7 PM on Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays and until 6 PM on Wednesdays. Fridays run from 8 AM to 1 PM, which leaves the rest of the day free for the lake.
