About Us
At Sewell Dental Arts, we know about the industry verbiage of “teeth-in-a-day” and we know there are lots of websites showing galleries of mouths with new perfect teeth. We also know this doesn’t happen in a day. If you’re coming to see us, it’s not for something that happened yesterday. We know it takes a long time for a patient to come through our door. We appreciate the courage to make that decision.
Meet The Team
Dr. Pastiu graduated from dental school in his native Romania and then immigrated to the United States where reciprocity issues compelled him to attend dental school a second time graduating with top honors for Operative Dentistry from the University of Pennsylvania School of Dental Medicine.
Somewhere between meticulous craftsman and artist, Dr. Pastiu passionately restores one smile at a time and views the Sewell Dental Arts in-house lab as his private studio where he creates implant masterpieces restoring functionality and original beauty to one’s face.
Dr. Pastiu’s favorite hobby is fish farming – yes, this is a real thing! He has over 40,000 fish living in the finest aquifer in the United States – southern New Jersey.
His favorite bands are Queen and Pink Floyd, and when asked his favorite food, he replied, “Anything my wife cooks.”
Whitney has been a staple at Sewell Dental Arts for more than a decade where she assists Dr. Pastiu with restorations ranging from a single dental implant to entire mouth restorations. Her experience, intuition, and compassion create the best patient experiences. Known for her love of nature, she is the complementary controlling yin to Dr. Pastiu’s artistic yang. Together, they have performed more than six thousand custom implant procedures.
Elizabeth is a driving force at Sewell Dental Arts and embodies the definition of “artisan” – one who creates handcrafted, functional objects with skill and traditional methods. She is fanatical about cleanliness and maintaining sterile fields during procedures. Elizabeth is a native of New Jersey and a graduate of Rowan University. She says her favorite aspect of being on the Sewell Dental Arts team is the ability to see a patient come in with a serious dental issue and have a permanent solution the same day.
Kathy is the backbone of Sewell Dental Arts. A Jersey native, Kathy, as the office manager, coordinates all the schedules, pays all the bills, and to quote Dr. Pastiu, “Kathy literally does everything – seriously, everything.” A true pastry chef at heart, Kathy’s favorite desserts to make are ice cream and wedding cakes! She says in a perfect world she would open a bakery next door to their restorative dental practice and call it “Sweet Tooth.”

Simply put, we change lives by changing one smile at a time. Each situation is as different as the person before us. It’s a private matter with very public results. At Sewell Dental Arts, we provide custom restorative dentistry with superior Zirconia – durable, stain resistant, and natural in color. We provide customized services with our in-house lab that means fast turnaround, superb quality, and most importantly, Dr. Pastiu, who knows your mouth best, is the one crafting your new teeth for the perfect match.
We also know a successful smile isn’t celebrated solely in the mirror upon completion. It’s how that smile changes a person’s life in the months and years after. Sewell Dental Arts – our name is who we are, and what we do.
Sewell Dental Arts Story
Every brand has an essence or strength that allows that brand to stand out from the others. At Sewell Dental Arts, our brand is Dr. Septimiu Pastiu, part artisan, part restorative dentist, all demanding perfectionist. Raised, educated and trained in Dentistry in Romania, Dr. Pastiu came to the United States started family, and had to repeat Dental School for reciprocity reasons. Graduating at the top of his class from the University of Pennsylvania Dental School, Dr. Pastiu dreamed of opening a practice where he could exercise his passion for restorative dentistry in a community setting. We aren’t one of the big dental implant franchises owned by equity firms looking for a return on investment after debt-financed, leveraged buy-out. We don’t pay franchise fees to a parent corporation; we don’t spend huge money on Google Ads. Our best marketing is literally “word of mouth.”
Sewell Dental Arts is located on the corner of Egg Harbor and Ganttown Roads in Washington Township and draws patients from New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and even Delaware. Our private in-house lab means Dr. Pastiu personally crafts every new permanent tooth and meticulously creates every new restorative and full-functioning smile. Many times accomplished the same day, Sewell Dental Arts uses only zirconia for the creation of new permanent teeth.
Zirconia.
- Biocompatible Zirconia and Titanium
- Other materials are tolerated but only Titanium and Zirconia are the most biocompatible
- Ceramic that can mimic shape and color of teeth
- Stain resistant and no pores, doesn’t change color over time
- No corrosion
- Durability: Harder than a natural tooth
Dental Technology has a come a long way in a short period, and just about anyone can receive new permanent teeth. Dental implants are meticulously designed to look like your natural teeth improving your appearance, enunciation when you speak, and chew normally when you eat. Dental implants are stain and odor resistant and easy to clean and care for. They preserve bone and reduce the appearance of aging.
