Dr. Jenny Chavez, DDS

Union City’s stretch of 40th Street stays busy with foot traffic, but dental care isn’t always the first thing people associate with the area. Dr. Jenny Chavez, DDS operates a practice at 517 40th St, offering general and cosmetic dentistry services in a neighborhood better known for its bakeries and small shops. The office handles everything from routine cleanings to fillings, crowns, and basic extractions—no specialty referrals needed for the usual concerns. It’s one of those places where you’d likely end up if you searched for a dentist within walking distance of the Bergenline Avenue corridor.

Patient feedback suggests a steady experience: the practice holds a 4.6-star rating on Google, drawn from 12 reviews. That’s a small but consistent sample, with comments touching on standard procedures like exams, X-rays, and occasional emergency visits. Dentists in urban areas often see a mix of long-term locals and newer residents, and this office appears to fit that pattern. The building itself is easy to spot—it’s mid-block, between a laundromat and a cell phone repair shop, with signage that’s clear but not flashy.

If you’re mapping out a first visit, the easiest route is to pull up directions here and check street parking options in advance. Questions about insurance or availability?
