With two locations in Central New Jersey, you’ll have access to the care you need to achieve the smile of your dreams.

Oral Surgeon Alan Hecht, DMD

Dr. Alan Hecht

Board Certified Oral & Maxillofacial Surgeon

Growing up, Dr. Hecht’s father was a builder. Despite not being in the dental industry, his father suggested that—because Dr. Hecht was good with his hands—he should consider dentistry. In school, he discovered his passion for oral and maxillofacial surgery and hasn’t looked back. Dr. Hecht enjoys performing an array of oral surgery procedures, which is why he searched for a practice that offered a full scope of services so that he could use his expertise and experience to offer every patient a solution to any oral or maxillofacial issue they experience. He found that at Somerset Oral Surgery, where he has practiced since 1998.

Dr. Jason Gordon

Board Certified Oral & Maxillofacial Surgeon

After discovering the beauty of the intersection of dentistry and medicine, Dr. Gordon found that utilizing his knowledge in both fields was crucial in making a significant impact on patient lives. Dr. Gordon joined Somerset Oral Surgery in 2023. Dr. Gordon wanted to work at a practice that had a team environment with good, supportive people who could act as resources for one another when creating treatments for patients.
