About Dr. Kimberly Hollywood: Dr. Hollywood is a board certified pediatric dentist. This is someone whose credentials have been verified, who has successfully completed voluntary examinations, and who demonstrates specialized knowledge and skill. She is dedicated to providing exceptional patient care through a voluntary commitment to lifelong learning and expansion of her knowledge in dentistry. She attends numerous continuing education courses throughout the year so she can give her patients the most up-to-date options for dental treatment and use the most advanced materials and equipment.

Dr. Hollywood knew from an early age that dentistry was for her; in fact, if you find her sixth-grade yearbook, you will see that even then she wanted to be a dentist! Dr. Hollywood started working for a dentist during high school and then continued to work for a dentist during her college summers. Seeing these dentists work and have an amazing impact on the lives of their patients was her inspiration to join the dental profession.

She is involved in many community service projects, notably volunteering her time with the Indian Health Service in Albuquerque, New Mexico, to help children and adults who would otherwise have no access to dental care.

Dr. Hollywood resides in Nutley, NJ, where she is close to family and enjoys Sunday dinners at Grandma’s house. Outside of the office, Dr. Hollywood enjoys being “Aunt Kiki” to her adorable nieces and nephews. She also enjoys shopping with her mom and sisters, trying new restaurants with her husband Dan, and taking barre classes to stay fit in a world where new restaurants are always popping up!
