Twenty three of the 32 are general dentistry listings. Alongside them are three pediatric listings, two endodontic, two in oral and maxillofacial surgery, two periodontic and one orthodontic. For a small city, that is reasonable coverage.
What is listed in Uptown
Washington St has the largest cluster, with 20 listings counting the two recorded as Washington Street. Maxwell Ln and Hudson St have four each and Adams St has two, with the rest spread across other streets.
All 32 listings sit in ZIP code 07030, which covers Hoboken. That means the ZIP code alone will not separate Uptown from the rest of the city, so use the street names as your check instead.
Nineteen of the 32 are registered as individual practitioners and 13 as organizations. Sixteen have been registered since before 2010, and the oldest registration here dates to 2006, so the neighborhood is split fairly evenly between long standing and newer listings.

How to choose between them
Twenty three general dentists in a walkable area means you can compare on the things that actually matter rather than on distance. Ask whether they are taking new patients, how far ahead appointments book, whether they hold emergency slots and whether they take your insurance.
The specialist listings are few but they cover the common needs. Three pediatric, two endodontic, two oral surgery and two periodontic listings means a child's dentist, a root canal, an extraction or gum treatment can usually be arranged locally, though with little choice within each field.
Orthodontics has a single listing. If you or your child needs braces and that practice does not suit, expect to look outside the neighborhood, so ask about alternatives when the referral is made.
If you need something Uptown does not have
Prosthodontics is the one specialty with no listing here. The nearest prosthodontic practices are elsewhere in Hoboken, about 0.3 miles away, where two are listed. That is a walk rather than a drive, so it is barely a gap at all.
It is still worth asking your general dentist whether they provide dentures and crown and bridge work themselves, since many do, before you accept a referral.
The one neighboring area in our directory is Downtown, 0.6 miles away with 37 listed practices, slightly more than Uptown itself. Between the two you have almost every dental practice in Hoboken within about half a mile.
Insurance and what things cost
Our registry holds names, addresses and registration details. It does not hold fees, opening hours or which insurance plans a practice accepts, and none of the 32 Uptown listings has published hours or a website through us. Everything practical has to come from the practice.
Check network status with your insurer before booking, not just with the office. In network means the dentist bills from an agreed fee schedule. Out of network care may still be partly covered, but the practice sets its own fees and can bill you the difference.
For crowns, implants, orthodontics or anything staged over several visits, ask for a written estimate with the procedure codes, the fee and the expected plan payment. Claimed listings, which the practice keeps current itself, are usually the quickest to answer.
If it is urgent
Twenty three general dentists in a compact neighborhood is a reasonable pool for same day care. Call early, say clearly that you are in pain and ask for an emergency appointment. Washington St is the obvious place to start given how many listings are there.
Some symptoms need an emergency room rather than a dentist. Go to hospital if swelling is spreading toward your eye or down your neck, if you are having trouble breathing or swallowing, if you have a fever with facial swelling, or if bleeding from the mouth will not stop.
If nothing here is available, Downtown is half a mile away with 37 more listings, and you can search by distance at dentist directory to see everything nearby at once.

No. Prosthodontics is the one specialty with no listing in the neighborhood. The nearest prosthodontic practices are elsewhere in Hoboken, about 0.3 miles away, where two are listed. That is close enough to walk, and many general dentists here will also provide dentures and crown work themselves.
Should I look at Downtown Hoboken as well?
