Meet Arthur W. Thurm, DMDGeneral Dentist / Dental Anesthesiologist

Dr. Arthur Thurm is one of the few general dentists in the country who is also a Certified Dental Anesthesiologist. For more than 35 years, he has helped patients with dental phobias, special needs, and dementia receive the dental care they need while comfortably sedated. Other dentists in New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and Delaware now send their difficult patients to Dr. Thurm for treatment.

Dr. Thurm earned his Doctor of Dental Medicine (DMD) degree from the University of Pennsylvania School of Dental Medicine in 1977. He completed a one-year general practice residency at the Philadelphia Veterans Administration Hospital in 1978, and then completed a one-year residency in Anesthesiology at the Medical College of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia. In 1980, Dr. Thurm became a Fellow of the America Dental Society of Anesthesiology. There are fewer than 250 general dentists in the country with this distinction. Dr. Thurm holds a permit from the State of New Jersey (#473) certifying his training and for two years, he taught dental and medical students how to administer anesthesia in operating rooms. In 2002, he became board-certified by the National Dental Board of Anesthesiology.

Dr. Thurm is a Diplomate with the National Dental Board of Anesthesiology and a member of the American Dental Society of Anesthesiology, American Dental Association, New Jersey Dental Association, and Southern New Jersey Dental Society. He has served the New Jersey, Delaware and Philadelphia communities from his dental office in Collingswood, NJ for more than three decades.


Our patients leave smiling

If you had told me a few years ago that I would be smiling, and genuinely happy about the way my teeth look today, I would have told you that you were crazy. I have kept my smile hidden for years, not wanting to show my teeth…ashamed of the way they look after years of neglect. I experience dental anxiety, to the point of putting off the care, for years. I knew this was not a good plan, but…

Outstanding experience! I have avoided the dentist for 35 years due to fear. I honestly thought having my teeth taken care of was completely out of the question until I heard Dr. Thurm’s practice advertised on the radio. From the moment I walked in, everyone on his staff was incredibly friendly and were acutely aware of your trepidation. While in the room waiting to see the Dr. I felt myself…

Excellent dentist and staff. Seen on time. State of the art equipment and most importantly, correct and good treatment with a conservative approach. Dr. Thurm’s approach is to assess the situation, range of options, whether the treatment is urgent or can wait and proceed from there. Everybody in this facility is both professional and friendly. I wish all businesses were like this.

As always, everyone at Thurm Dental is professional and friendly. I’ve been a patient of Dr. Thurm’s for over thirty years and wouldn’t consider ever going to another dentist. At this point it’s like visiting old friends.

I have had an abnormal fear of the dentist all my life which led to sever gum disease and I was terrified of what I needed to have done. Dr. Thurm took his time to explain everything that had to be done and he treated me with such kindness and care it was wonderful. I had extractions done, scaling and filings under anesthesia so I did not have to hear or feel what he was doing. I woke up and Dr. T…

I have an absolutely devastating fear of dentists, and had it not been for excruciating tooth pain, I was content to not visit a dental office. My first visit, while in such pain, was probably the most gentle experience I’ve had with a dental office. The staff was definitely sympathetic to my fear, and instead of treating it dismissively or by treating me like a child, they truly made me fee…

It was the most positive dental cleaning appointment I have ever had! Carol was very gentle and thorough. I made my next appointment for six months, and now I will be calling to schedule a cleaning for my husband, on the same day.

If you have any fear of the dentist, this is the place to go. They do whatever is necessary to help you feel comfortable. I highly recommend Dr. Thurm for dental work. I have had extensive work done by his team: partial bridge, crowns, root canals and fillings.

I’ve had a life long fear of the dentist for as long as I can remember and as a result neglected my teeth . Then I found Dr Thurm and staff . I have absolutely no anxiety about going to see him . He’s done all my work for me and it’s all been great . Being able to smile with confidence and not hide my teeth in shame has been life changing . I can’t say enough !
