Almost all of them are on a single road, and between them they cover every main dental specialty. This guide sets out the detail and what the registry cannot tell you.
What is listed in Timberland
14 of the 37 listings are tagged general dentistry, which is well under half. The rest are 6 pediatric dentistry, 4 oral and maxillofacial surgery, 4 dental clinic, 4 prosthodontics, 2 endodontics, 2 orthodontics and 2 periodontics. A listing can carry more than one tag, so the totals overlap.
That is unusually broad coverage for 37 practices. Every main specialty appears at least twice, so most treatment paths can start and finish in the same neighborhood.
SW Barnes Rd holds 31 listings, with 1 more recorded as SW Barnes Road. NW Cedar Falls Dr has 3, and SW Shilo Lane and NW Lost Springs Ter have 1 each. 25 listings are registered as individual practitioners and 12 as organizations. 13 of the 37 were registered before 2010, and the oldest registration here dates to 2005.

How to choose between them
The pool for routine care is smaller than the headline number suggests, since only 14 listings are tagged general dentistry. Call several rather than relying on one, and ask when a new patient exam is available and what it includes.
For families, 6 pediatric dentistry listings and 2 orthodontics listings mean children's care can usually stay local. Ask whether the practice sees adults too if you would rather keep the household in one place.
For anything more involved, the specialist depth here is the main advantage. With 4 oral and maxillofacial surgery, 4 prosthodontics, 2 endodontics and 2 periodontics listings mostly on the same road, a referral often means walking to another suite rather than crossing the city. Ask your general dentist whether they refer locally.
If you need something this neighborhood does not have
There is no specialty gap in Timberland. Every main dental specialty has at least two listings, which is rare for a neighborhood of this size and is the strongest thing the data says about it.
What can still be missing is availability. If the practice you want is full, the nearby options are modest but close. Cedar Mill is 0.7 miles away with 16 listings and Cedar Hills is the same distance with 10. West Slope has 13 at 1.0 mile and Central Beaverton has 3 at 1.1 miles. Further out, Raleigh Hills has 21 at 3.0 miles and Bethany has 6 at 3.1 miles.

Insurance and paying
Our registry holds no fees, no opening hours and no insurance information. It records who is registered to practice and at what address. None of the 37 Timberland listings has published hours or a website with us, and none has been claimed by its owner, so anything about cost comes from the practice itself.
Ask whether they are in network with your specific plan rather than with your insurer generally. In network normally means a rate agreed in advance. Out of network can still work if your plan pays a share, but more of the bill falls to you.
For anything beyond a checkup, ask for a written estimate with the procedure codes on it. Where treatment involves a general dentist and a specialist in the same building, check the network question with each of them separately.
If it is urgent
For a broken tooth, a lost filling or pain that has kept you awake, call the practices on SW Barnes Rd and ask directly whether they hold same day emergency slots. With 14 general listings, 2 endodontics listings and 4 oral and maxillofacial surgery listings on one road, a run of calls covers a lot of ground quickly.
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 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.
