The mix is broad as well as deep. There are 101 general dentists, 15 orthodontists, 11 dental clinics, 10 pediatric dentists, 5 endodontists, 4 periodontists, 4 oral and maxillofacial surgeons, 1 oral pathologist and 1 prosthodontist. Nothing is missing from this neighborhood, which is rare.
What is listed in Woodbridge
One road dominates. Barranca Pkwy carries 78 of the 147 listings, more than half the neighborhood. Osborn St has 19, Creek Rd has 17, E Yale Loop has 7 and Alton Pkwy has 6. Those five streets cover most of what is here, and Barranca Pkwy alone would be a substantial dental district in a smaller city.
Two ZIP codes cover the area, 92604 and 92614. Ninety-four listings are registered to individual practitioners and 53 to organizations, so both solo practices and larger groups are well represented. Eighty-six have been on the register since before 2010, and the oldest registration dates to 2005, which means well over half these addresses have a long history.
- Barranca Pkwy: 78 practices
- Osborn St: 19 practices
- Creek Rd: 17 practices
- ZIP codes covered: 92604 and 92614
Choosing between them
When there are 101 general dentists to choose from, the shortlist has to come from something other than availability. Distance from home or work is the usual first filter, and here it can be a specific street rather than the whole neighborhood. After that, the honest questions are practical ones: how far ahead the next hygiene appointment is, whether the practice is in network with your plan, and whether you will see the same dentist each time.
The split between 94 individual registrations and 53 organizations is worth understanding. An individual registration usually points to a solo or small practice where you see one dentist consistently. An organization is more often a group or multi site practice, which typically means more appointment slots and longer opening but less continuity of person. Neither is better; they suit different people.
Specialists are here too
Unlike most neighborhoods, Woodbridge has no specialty gaps in our data. Orthodontics has 15 listings, pediatric dentistry 10, endodontics 5, periodontics 4, and oral and maxillofacial surgery 4, with one prosthodontist and one oral pathologist as well. If your general dentist refers you onward, the referral can usually stay inside the neighborhood.
If you still want to look further, the nearest listed areas are Westpark with 34 practices at 1.0 miles, El Camino Real with 28 at 1.1 miles, and at 1.3 miles Concordia East with 3, Oak Creek with 35 and University Park with 5. Cypress Village lists 25 practices at 1.7 miles. All of those are close enough that a second opinion is easy to arrange.
Insurance and paying
In a neighborhood this size, network status is the most useful filter you have. In network means your insurer has already agreed the fee. Out of network means the practice sets its own fee and your plan covers part of it, or none. With 147 practices nearby, it is realistic to insist on an in network option rather than accept a large out of pocket balance.
For any treatment beyond an exam and clean, ask for a written estimate with the procedure codes, the total fee and your share. If a specialist and a general dentist are both involved, ask for both estimates before starting.
Our registry holds no fees, no opening hours and no insurance information. None of the 147 Woodbridge listings has a published website or published hours in the record, and none has been claimed by its owner. Claiming a listing is the only way a practice can add those details here.
If it is urgent
With 101 general dentists in one neighborhood, same day care is more achievable in Woodbridge than almost anywhere. Start with the Barranca Pkwy practices, say clearly that you are in pain or have broken a tooth, and keep calling down the list. Larger group practices often hold emergency slots that solo offices cannot.
Certain symptoms mean an emergency room instead. Go to hospital if swelling is spreading toward your eye or down your neck, if you have difficulty breathing or swallowing, if you have a fever with facial swelling, or if bleeding from the mouth will not stop. Those are infections and bleeds that need medical treatment quickly.
