Meet Our Doctors
Dr. Jaafar Ali
Was born and raised in the Caribbean Island of Trinidad and Tobago. When he moved to the US he studied at Rutgers University, received his Masters from UMDNJ and his Doctorate in Dentistry at NYU where he received many awards in Aesthetic and Cosmetic dentistry. He continued on to complete his residency at Newark Beth Israel Medical Center.
Dr. Ali currently lives in Westfield with his wife and 2 kids.
When he isn’t practicing he loves to travel, dine and garden. What he enjoys most about practicing dentistry is “meeting and learning about people and being an integral part of reestablishing and maintaining a patients’ oral health”.
Dr. Muhammadali Dinani
Dr. Muhammadali Dinani was born in the United States but spent almost two decades of his early life in Tanzania, on the eastern coast of Africa. He completed his undergraduate studies at Villanova University and his dental degree at the University of Pennsylvania.
Dr. Dinani has clocked hundreds of continuing education hours specifically in advancing his cosmetic dentistry and full mouth reconstruction skillset. He is a graduate of the Dawson Academy; a leading institute in advanced dental therapy. This has equipped Dr. Dinani the ability to greatly impact his patient’s quality of life and self confidence by creating long lasting and beautiful smiles.
Charitable care has always been one of his core values and since 2010 has always found time to care for needy women and children at the Salvation Army, Ronald McDonald Foundation and schools in underserved communities. When Dr. Dinani isn’t taking care of patients he enjoys playing soccer and spending time with his family. “My greatest satisfaction is when a patient starts their visit by telling me ‘nothing personal but I hate the dentist’ and walks out saying ‘well that was real easy!’.”
