Dental.me lists 20 dental practices in Hawthorne, NJ; 16 of them carry a Google rating, and those 16 ratings average 4.66 out of five across 2,561 reviews. Twelve sit at 4.8 or higher, though five of those twelve rest on 11 reviews or fewer. Start with the table below, read the review count behind each rating, then call to confirm your insurance and how soon the office can see you.
This guide reads the Hawthorne directory one figure at a time: Google ratings and review counts, the websites, phone numbers and posted hours on file, and the Dental.me service lists each office appears on. None of those figures measures clinical quality.
The numbers behind Hawthorne’s dentists
Of the 20 Hawthorne listings, 16 carry a Google rating and four have none on file; Dental.me does not record why. The 16 ratings average 4.66, a plain mean with each office counted once. The chart below splits them into bands: 12 at 4.8 or higher, one between 4.5 and 4.79 (a 4.7 on 12 reviews), none between 4.0 and 4.49, and three below 4.0. Without those three, the other 13 average 4.94.
The three below 4.0 are not all small records: The Smile Spa of North Jersey, LLC holds a 3.9 on 440 reviews, the fourth-largest record in the city, and Lafayette Family Dentistry a 3.8 on 64. Read every rating beside its review count.
The Dental.me Score leaders
The table lists the six Hawthorne practices with the highest Dental.me Score, ordered by Google rating and then by the number of reviews behind it. Nine Hawthorne offices hold a 5.0 Google rating; four are in this table, and the other five rest on 11 reviews or fewer. Dental Implant Dentists in Hawthorne holds the largest record in the city, a 4.9 on 632 reviews, and the highest Dental.me Score.
| Practice | Rating | Reviews | Profile |
|---|---|---|---|
| Anthony M Pallotta DDS PA | 5.0 | 495 | View profile |
| Embrace Family Orthodontics | 5.0 | 482 | View profile |
| Margaret Somers | 5.0 | 56 | View profile |
| Emergency Dentist of Hawthorne NJ | 5.0 | 26 | View profile |
| Dental Implant Dentists in Hawthorne | 4.9 | 632 | View profile |
| Jonathan Dental Spa at the Center for Cosmetic & Implant Dentistry LLC | 4.8 | 296 | View profile |
Read the two columns together. A 5.0 on 26 reviews (Emergency Dentist of Hawthorne NJ) and a 4.9 on 632 (Dental Implant Dentists in Hawthorne) rest on very different numbers of reviews; neither figure measures clinical quality. The table leaves out two of the six largest review records, both rated below 4.0: The Smile Spa of North Jersey, LLC (3.9 on 440, Score #14) and Lafayette Family Dentistry (3.8 on 64, Score #15). The chart below plots the six largest records; together they hold 2,409 of the 2,561 reviews (94%).
How the Dental.me Score reads these signals
The Dental.me Score that picks the six practices in the table is built mainly from a practice’s Google rating and the depth of reviews behind it, with a small lift for an office that verifies its listing. Paid placements are clearly labeled as Featured and never change the organic order. A Score is not a measure of clinical quality.
The Score order and the review counts do not always agree: Margaret Somers (5.0 on 56) ranks #5, while The Smile Spa of North Jersey, LLC, with almost eight times as many reviews, ranks #14. Each name in the table links to its Dental.me profile.
Website coverage and getting booked
Dental.me records whether each office has a website URL on file. Across all 20 Hawthorne practices, 11 have one and nine do not; six of the nine are rated, including Lafayette Family Dentistry (3.8 on 64) and Dr. Toni A. Raymond, DMD (4.8 on 19). Dental.me also holds a phone number for all 20 and posted hours for 13. A missing URL means Dental.me has no link to display, not that the office is closed or hard to reach. Call to ask what Dental.me does not hold: whether the office is taking new patients, whether it takes your insurance and how soon it can see you. Dental.me does not publish prices, and our national guide to dental costs gives no price ranges either; it lists what a quote depends on (the procedure, exam findings, insurance and materials), so ask each office for a written, itemised estimate.
Service lists in Hawthorne
Hawthorne’s Dental.me service lists, longest first: teeth whitening 8, cosmetic dentists 7, dental implants 6, periodontists 5, dentures 5, pediatric dentists 4, emergency dentists 3, endodontists 3, orthodontists 2, Invisalign 2, oral surgeons 2, prosthodontists 1. All 12 lists hold at least one Hawthorne office. A place on a list shows what an office lists, not how often it does that work, so ask whether the office does your procedure itself.
Use the lists to shortlist by need. Dental Implant Dentists in Hawthorne is on ten of the 12 lists, more than any other Hawthorne office, and The Smile Spa of North Jersey, LLC is on seven. Margaret Somers (5.0 on 56) and Dr. Toni A. Raymond, DMD (4.8 on 19) are on no Dental.me service list, so ask those offices whether they do your procedure. Dental.me holds no availability data, so call to ask how soon an office can see you.
Nearby directories
If no Hawthorne office fits, the directory also lists Paterson (55 practices, 27 rated), Glen Rock (22 practices, 10 rated), Midland Park (17 practices, 12 rated), North Haledon (13 practices, 8 rated), Haledon (3 practices, 2 rated), Prospect Park (2 practices, 2 rated). Of those, Paterson and Glen Rock list more practices than Hawthorne’s 20. Dental.me holds no drive-time data, so check the distance from where you live. Each hub ranks its own practices by the same Dental.me Score.
A practical checklist for choosing
Put the numbers to work in order. First, open the Hawthorne dental directory, which lists all 20 practices in Dental.me Score order. Second, read each rating beside its review count: a 5.0 on 495 reviews and a 5.0 on one review are different records. Third, if you need specialist work, start from the service list for it and ask whether the office does your procedure itself. Fourth, check whether a website URL is on file, then call to confirm your insurance and how soon the office can see you.
Every figure in this guide comes from the Dental.me directory: 20 practices, 16 with a Google rating, and a 4.66 average across 2,561 reviews.
