Himsworth Andy DDS

Dental care in Bend’s northwest quadrant doesn’t always get the same attention as the breweries or trailheads, but it’s the kind of thing you notice when you need it. General and family dentistry offices dot the area, though not all are tucked into the same quiet professional plaza as Himsworth Andy DDS. This isn’t the kind of practice that advertises whitening specials on billboards or pushes Invisalign like a subscription service. Instead, it’s a straightforward dentist’s office handling the basics—cleanings, fillings, crowns—along with the occasional emergency when a ski pole or a stray rock from the Deschutes takes an unexpected turn.

The address, 628 NW York Dr #101, places it just off the main drag, where the traffic thins out near the edge of town. That stretch of York Drive is more functional than flashy: medical offices, a physical therapy clinic, and a few low-key professional suites. It’s the kind of location where you’re more likely to run into a neighbor grabbing their post-op instructions than a tourist asking for directions to Pilot Butte. The building itself is unassuming, which suits the purpose—no one’s here for the architecture.

Dentists in Central Oregon tend to fall into two categories: the ones who lean hard into the outdoor-lifestyle branding and the ones who just do the work. This practice falls squarely in the latter camp. Need a checkup? They do those. X-rays? Covered. A chipped tooth from an overzealous bite into a frozen burrito? Also within their wheelhouse. Calling ahead is the move, especially if it’s been a while since your last visit—(541) 389-2300 connects directly to the front desk, where someone will actually pick up.

First-time visitors might want to glance at the map beforehand, since the suite numbers in this plaza aren’t always obvious from the parking lot. Directions are here.
