We have a great team here at Callan Orthodontics
Meet the Doctor
Dr. Christopher Callan grew up in Ocean City, New Jersey. He completed his undergraduate education at Villanova University, where he earned his bachelor’s degree in Biology. Dr. Callan continued his studies and received his Master’s Degree in Biomedicine from The Philadelphia College of Osteopathic Medicine. He then spent several years working for the American Red Cross.
Dr. Callan later left the Red Cross to pursue his dream of becoming an orthodontist. He received his DMD degree from Rutgers School of Dental Medicine, where he graduated with the highest honors. Dr. Callan then completed his orthodontic residency at Montefiore Medical Center, in New York. During his second year of residency, he received the American Academy of Orthodontics Award for outstanding achievement in Orthodontics.
Dr. Callan is a member of the American Dental Association, the New Jersey Dental Association, the American Academy of Orthodontics, and the American Board of Orthodontics. He strives to always continue his education so he can provide the best in quality ortho care for his patients.
When he is not in the office, Dr. Callan enjoys traveling, cheering on the Villanova Wildcats basketball team, and spending time with his wife (some of you may know her as Dr. Kristy of Mercer Children’s Dentistry), and their six children.
Dr. Callan was honored in New Jersey Monthly magazine as one of the most respected dental professionals in the state.

Callan Ortho saved me when I was in a bind! My daughter was in from out of town and needed an immediate scan and lower retainer made. No other Orthodontist in the area would help me so quickly. They did a fabulous job of creating the perfect mold and their office staff was outstanding, all lovely people and product!
Response from the owner:Hi Sarah - We're delighted to hear that we could assist you and your daughter in such a timely manner! It's wonderful to know that our team and services exceeded your expectations. Your kind words about our staff and the quality of our work mean a lot to us. Thank you for the opportunity to serve.

Fantastic service. I was new to the area, and the staff squeezed me into the doctor’s schedule to address an unexpected orthodontic issue. I was immediately impressed by the friendly and professional staff as well as the spacious, clean, and modern facilities. My issue was addressed efficiently and painlessly, and I’ll be sure to return if I need further care.
Response from the owner:Patrick! We’re so glad you had a great experience with our team. Thank you for your kind words about our staff and office—it means everything to us. We always do our best to accommodate patients, especially when unexpected concerns come up, and we’re happy we could help.

I am so grateful for Callan Orthodontics. From the doctor to the staff everyone is so welcoming and friendly. The vibe is very family oriented and the place is always clean. The dentist isn’t everyone’s favorite place to go but they make my boys both so happy that they love going to the dentist. Would always recommend to everyone that asks me.

what a welcoming atmosphere! This is my second time wearing braces and my first as an adult, which can sometimes be challenging, but they have made the process as painless as possible. Dr. Callan is amazing hands down but I think the stars of the show are the ladies who assist him, Abby and Ang. Besides being extremely kind and friendly, they truly go above and beyond to make each person feel special. They have even gone the extra mile for me with just a change of a rubber band color on an off day, but things like that make you, as the patient, feel special to them because they went out of their way when they didn’t have to. Many times, dental visits can feel transactional, but they make each interaction personal by building connections with everyone in their chair, and the best part is that they actually remember you when you come back for each visit. These ladies create such a warm and inviting atmosphere that would make anyone of any age not dread going to the dentist.
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for taking the time to share such a thoughtful and generous review. We’re truly grateful for your kind words about our office and the atmosphere we strive to create. Hearing that your experience has felt welcoming, personal, and comfortable means a great deal to our entire team.
We’re especially appreciative of your recognition of Dr. Callan and our amazing assistants. They genuinely care about making every visit feel positive and individualized, and it’s wonderful to hear that those efforts come through. Small moments of care and connection are important to us, and we’re glad they made a difference for you.
Creating an environment where people of all ages feel at ease—and even looked forward to seeing again—is exactly what we aim for. Thank you again for your trust and for sharing your experience. We look forward to continuing to provide you with the same level of care and attention at every visit.

Dr. Callan is an amazing orthodontist. He’s very patient, kind, understanding and friendly. When my kids started there they were both anxious about going and Dr. Callan completely took the anxiety away and now they look forward to seeing him. During appointments he keeps the parent(s) updated about absolutely everything, he takes the time to explain things but more importantly is his relationship with the children. During the visit he talks to the kids about anything, asks about school, any upcoming plans really just talks to build that positive doctor patient relationship at a young age. Choosing him for our children’s orthodontic care was the best decision I could have made. His wife is actually our kids regular dentist too. Amazing family/doctors It If I could I’d give them each a 10/10 rating.
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for taking the time to share such a thoughtful and kind review, Heather. Creating a calm, welcoming environment—especially for children—is something we care deeply about, and it means a great deal to hear that this approach made a positive difference. We believe clear communication, patience, and building trust are essential parts of great orthodontic care, and your words truly reinforce that philosophy. We’re grateful for the trust families place in our office and for the opportunity to be part of such an important stage of their children’s smiles and confidence. Thank you again for your support and recommendation—it is sincerely appreciated.
