Only four specialty tags appear across those 53 listings. That makes Lambertson Lakes straightforward for everyday dentistry and clear about where its limits are, which is what the rest of this guide is about.
What is listed in Lambertson Lakes
39 of the 53 listings are tagged general dentistry. The only other tags present are 7 pediatric dentistry, 5 dental clinic and 4 orthodontics. A listing can carry more than one tag, so those figures overlap slightly. No other dental specialty appears anywhere in the neighborhood.
The addresses run along a few main roads. Washington St has 24 listings and N Washington St has 5 more. Thornton Pkwy has 12, with 2 more recorded as E. Thornton Pkwy, and Grant St has 8.
36 listings are registered as individual practitioners and 17 as organizations. 23 of the 53 were registered before 2010, and the oldest registration here dates to 2005, so this is a mix of long standing and more recent registrations.

How to choose between them
For routine care this is an easy neighborhood. 39 general listings and 7 pediatric listings mean a family can usually find everything it needs within a couple of streets. Call two or three practices on the road that suits you and ask how soon a new patient can be seen.
The question that matters more here is what happens next. Because no endodontics, periodontics, oral surgery or prosthodontics listing exists in Lambertson Lakes, every referral goes out of the neighborhood. Ask a prospective dentist where they send root canals, gum treatment and extractions, and how far that is.
Also ask what they do in house. Plenty of general dentists carry out straightforward root canals and simple extractions themselves, which can save you a second appointment somewhere else entirely.
If you need something this neighborhood does not have
Four specialties are missing. For endodontics our nearest listing is in Federal Heights, about 1.8 miles away, where we hold just 1 practice. Oral and maxillofacial surgery is also nearest in Federal Heights at 1.8 miles, with 2 practices. Periodontics and prosthodontics are nearest elsewhere in Thornton, about 2.1 miles away, with 4 and 2 practices.
Those are small numbers, so expect to make appointments in advance rather than at short notice. The nearby neighborhoods do not add much depth either: Burgundy is 1.2 miles away with 8 listings and The Meadows at Timber Lake is 2.9 miles away with 21. Thornton as a whole holds 186 listings.
- Burgundy, 1.2 miles, 8 practices
- The Meadows at Timber Lake, 2.9 miles, 21 practices
- Endodontics and oral surgery: nearest listings in Federal Heights, 1.8 miles
- Periodontics and prosthodontics: nearest listings elsewhere in Thornton, 2.1 miles
Insurance and paying
Our registry holds no fees, no opening hours and no insurance information. It records who is registered to practice and where they are based. None of the 53 Lambertson Lakes listings has published hours or a website with us, and none has been claimed by its owner, so the practice itself is the only source for cost.
Ask whether they are in network with your specific plan, not just whether they take your insurer. In network usually means a rate agreed in advance. Out of network can still be worth it if your plan pays a share, but more of the bill is yours.
For anything beyond a checkup, ask for a written estimate showing the procedure codes. Because specialist work will involve traveling out of the neighborhood, ask the network question again wherever you are referred.
If it is urgent
For a broken tooth, a lost filling or pain that has kept you awake, call general practices on Washington St and Thornton Pkwy and ask directly whether they keep same day emergency slots. With 39 general listings in one ZIP code, a short run of calls is the quickest way to be seen.
Some symptoms mean an emergency room instead of a dentist. Go to hospital if swelling is spreading toward your eye or down your neck, if you have trouble breathing or swallowing, if you have a fever alongside facial swelling, or if bleeding will not stop.
To search by distance rather than by neighborhood, dentist directory orders practices by how far they are from you.

Where do I go for a root canal specialist near Lambertson Lakes?
