Jessica Listwa, DMD, is a skilled pediatric dentist practicing at Dental Arts of Edgewater in Edgewater, New Jersey. She eagerly welcomes new and returning patients.
Dr. Listwa knew she wanted to be a pediatric dentist at only three years old when she experienced a life-changing dental appointment. For the first time, a dentist made her comfortable with their bedside manner – and stickers.

She works with patients and their families to make the best decisions for their overall dental health.
An active member of several professional societies, including the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry, the American Academy of Development Medicine and Dentistry, and the New Jersey Academy of Pediatric Dentistry, Dr. Listwa currently serves on the board of the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry’s Committee Council on Clinical Affairs. She also serves on the Committee on Special Health Care Needs.
After graduating from Muhlenberg College with a Bachelor of Science in Biochemistry, Dr. Listwa attended the University of Pennsylvania School of Dental Medicine in Philadelphia. Here, she received her DMD with Honors in Community Service. She completed her residency at the University of Connecticut and Connecticut Children’s Medical Center with a certificate in Pediatric Dentistry.
Dr. Listwa is an outspoken advocate for children with special needs in her free time. She runs a website for caregivers and parents called ExceptionalSmiles.Org, which offers advice and recommendations for improving oral health and hygiene for people with special needs. She is also a clinical director at Special Smiles in New Jersey, which offers comprehensive oral health care for Special Olympic athletes.
When not in the office, Dr. Listwa enjoys exploring all Hoboken has to offer with her daughter and husband.
