Unusually, organizations outnumber individually registered practices here, and children's dentistry is well covered. Everything below comes from the registry records, which hold counts, specialties, streets and ZIP codes. Fees, hours and insurance are not part of that data.

How to choose between them
The organization majority is the most useful thing to know here. Larger practices and clinics generally have more chairs, more staff and a better chance of fitting you in at short notice, which is worth knowing if your schedule is inflexible.
For families, 5 pediatric dentistry listings and 2 orthodontics listings give real choice in a neighborhood of only 34 practices. That is a better ratio than most places this size.
For adults needing anything beyond routine work, the picture is thinner. Only 13 practices here were registered before 2010, so long track records are less common, and three specialties are absent entirely. Ask the 22 general dentistry practices what they handle in house before assuming you will be referred.
If you need something the Bishop Arts District does not have
Endodontics, periodontics and prosthodontics all have no listing here. The nearest recorded practices are elsewhere in Dallas, about 6.6 miles away, where the directory holds 70 endodontics practices, 63 periodontics and 63 prosthodontics.
Nearly seven miles is a real journey, so ask your general dentist what they do themselves first. Straightforward root canals, basic gum treatment and standard crowns and dentures are often handled without a specialist referral.
For more general dentists closer in, Winnetka Heights Historic District is 0.9 miles away with 19 practices and Oak Cliff is 2.8 miles away with 17. The Arts District has 15 at 3.2 miles, Downtown has 11 at 2.8 miles, the Harwood District has 9 at 3.3 miles and the West End Historic District has 4 at 2.4 miles.
Insurance and paying
In network and out of network is the difference that decides most of your bill. In network means the practice and your insurer have agreed rates and your share is set in advance. Out of network means the practice sets its own fee and the plan covers part of it, or nothing.
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. That registry holds no fees, no opening hours and no insurance information for any practice. In the Bishop Arts District, none of the 34 listings has a published website or published hours on record, and none has been claimed by its owner. Claiming a listing is how a practice adds what the registry never carried, which is why claimed listings are more useful.
If it is urgent
For a cracked tooth, a lost filling or pain that painkillers are not managing, call the general dentists and clinics on N Zang Blvd, W Jefferson Blvd and N Bishop Ave and ask directly for a same day appointment. The clinics are often the best bet for short notice.
Some symptoms need a hospital emergency room instead of a dentist. Go there if swelling is spreading toward your eye or down into your neck, if you are having trouble breathing or swallowing, if you have a fever alongside facial swelling, or if bleeding will not stop.
If nothing local is free, search by distance at dentist directory and try Winnetka Heights Historic District, 0.9 miles away with 19 listings.
