Dr. Jenna Winokur

Lakewood’s River Avenue corridor blends quiet residential pockets with the steady hum of local businesses catering to families. Among them is Dr. Jenna Winokur, a pediatric dental practice that fits neatly into the neighborhood’s mix of everyday services. The office sits at 870 River Ave, a stretch where practicality often outweighs flash—parents dropping kids off at school, teens grabbing snacks after sports practice, and the occasional ice cream run when the weather warms up.

Pediatric dentistry isn’t just about cavities and cleanings; it’s the kind of place where first dental visits happen, where a child’s nervousness about the chair might get met with patience rather than pressure. This practice covers the expected—checkups, fillings, sealants—but also the less routine, like early orthodontic assessments or advice on thumb-sucking habits. Questions about fluoride treatments or when to expect baby teeth to loosen? Those fit here too. For direct contact, the number is (732) 370-3700.

The address places it within easy reach of Lakewood’s sprawling residential areas, where minivans and strollers are part of the landscape. If you’re mapping the route, directions will confirm what locals already know: it’s a straight shot from the school zones, no detours needed. Pediatric dentists don’t usually make headlines, but they do fill a quiet, persistent need—one toothfairy-approved visit at a time.
