For its size the specialty mix here is broader than usual, and almost everything missing is within a mile. This guide reports only what the registry records hold: counts, specialties, streets and ZIP codes. Fees, hours and insurance are not part of that data.
What is listed in Hamilton Park
General dentistry is recorded against 26 listings. There are also 5 in pediatric dentistry, 3 in orthodontics, 2 in oral and maxillofacial surgery, and one each in dental clinic, dental anesthesiology and endodontics.

Newark Ave carries the most, with 16 practices. Christopher Columbus Dr has 5, Brunswick St has 3, and Grand St and 1st St have 2 each. The neighborhood covers two ZIP codes, 07302 and 07310.
Twenty-one are registered as individual practitioners and 17 as organizations. Only 11 of the 38 have been registered since before 2010, and the earliest registration here dates to 2006, so this is a comparatively recent cluster.

How to choose between them
Twenty-six general dentists in a compact area is plenty for routine care, and Newark Ave alone gives you 16 to compare within a few blocks.
Families are better served here than in most neighborhoods this size. Five pediatric dentistry listings and 3 orthodontics listings mean you can compare on waiting times rather than take whatever is free. The dental anesthesiology listing matters if a child or an anxious adult needs sedation for treatment.
Only 11 of the 38 were registered before 2010, so most of these practices are newer arrivals. That is worth knowing if continuity over many years is what you are after. The near even split between 21 individual practitioners and 17 organizations means both small practices and larger setups are available.
If you need something Hamilton Park does not have
Two specialties are missing, and neither is far. Periodontics, for gum disease and gum surgery, has its nearest listings about 0.7 miles away elsewhere in Jersey City, where 8 practices are recorded. Prosthodontics, covering complex crowns, bridges and dentures, is the same distance with 5 practices.
Under a mile is a short enough trip that a referral is straightforward. Ask whoever refers you to check the specialist takes your insurance before the appointment is booked.
For more general dentists, McGinley Square is 1.3 miles away with 54 practices and Indian Square is 1.2 miles away with 49, both considerably larger than Hamilton Park. The Heights has 33 at 2.0 miles, Downtown Jersey City has 31 at 0.5 miles, Hilltop has 25 at 0.9 miles and Newport has 13 at 0.6 miles.
Insurance and paying
In network versus out of network is the biggest single influence on cost. In network means the practice and your insurer have agreed rates and your share is set in advance. Out of network means the practice charges its own fee and your plan covers part of it, or none.
Confirm network status with your insurer rather than the practice, then ask for a written estimate before treatment starts, listing the procedure codes, the fee for each, the expected insurance payment and your balance on the day.
Our listings are built from public registry data, which holds no fees, no opening hours and no insurance information. In Hamilton Park, one of the 38 practices has a published website and one has published hours on record, and none has been claimed by its owner. Claiming a listing is how a practice adds the rest of that detail, which is why claimed listings are more useful to a patient.
If it is urgent
For a broken tooth, a lost filling or pain that will not settle, call the general dentists on Newark Ave and ask directly for a same day appointment. Describe what happened and when, since practices decide urgency from what you tell them.
Some symptoms need a hospital emergency room rather than a dentist. Go there if swelling is spreading toward your eye or down into your neck, if breathing or swallowing has become difficult, if you have a fever alongside facial swelling, or if bleeding from the mouth will not stop.
If nothing local is free, search by distance at dentist directory. Downtown Jersey City is half a mile away with 31 listings.
