Lawrenceville Prosthodontic Dentistry (now known as Lawrenceville Smiles) has been around for more than 60 years! The practice was started by an enigmatic and progressive dentist named Dr. Harold Bullitt. He provided both general dental care to his patients as well as highly advanced prosthodontic care. Dr. Robert Wolf then took over the practice in the early 1980s and, as a fully trained lab technician and Prosthodontist, he continued the work of Dr. Bullitt until he passed the practice on to Dr. Michael Scalia in 2013. Dr. Scalias desire is to continue to provide the town of Lawrenceville, as well as the surrounding communities, with excellent and reliable dental care. He also desires to remain a valued partner for local dentists and dental specialists when called upon to help treat patients with advanced and/or special dental needs.

In his mid-twenties, a desire to help people led him to investigate a career in health care. He attended the post-baccalaureate program for pre-health professionals at Rutgers University before deciding on a career in dentistry. He received his DDS from the Stony Brook School of Dental Medicine prior to serving as a General Practice Resident at Morristown Memorial Hospital.

When he realized he wanted the challenge of combining the scientific and artistic elements of dentistry, Dr. Scalia focused on training as a prosthodontist. He spent three years of highly specialized study as a prosthodontic resident at the University of Iowa. With a desire to be able to provide excellent surgical implant services, Dr. Scalia also studied and trained at Loma Linda University as a surgical implant fellow for one full year.
