Convenient Access from Victorian Village
Victorian and Queen Anne houses line Neil Avenue, and plenty of the people living in them want a dentist near Victorian Village who can see them before the workday. Infinity Dental, in northwest Columbus, sits about 15 minutes up the Olentangy Freeway from Goodale Park. Our first appointments start at 7:00 AM Monday through Thursday, which leaves time for a cleaning or a quick repair before an office shift or a morning seminar.
From the park drive at 120 West Goodale Street, follow Park Street to Goodale Street and head west to SR 315. Take the freeway north for about 5.1 miles, exit at Henderson Road and go west, then turn south briefly on Kenny Road and right onto Old Henderson Road. You will find us at 1234 Old Henderson Rd # A, Columbus, OH 43220, in the Olde Henderson Square plaza. The trip is about 8.4 miles with no tolls, though SR 315 does slow down at rush hour.
SR 315 follows the Olentangy River north from just west of Victorian Village, so there are few stoplights once you reach the freeway. Our location on Google Maps helps with the last block. The Short North shares the neighborhood's High Street edge, and the University District lies to the north, toward Ohio State.
Historic Homes, Busy Schedules and a Practice That Fits Victorian Village
Victorian Village grew up along the streetcar lines. William Neil's heirs subdivided his land north of downtown, streetcars reached Neil Avenue in 1891, and Victorian and Queen Anne homes filled the blocks by the 1920s. The city made it a local historic district in 1973, and it joined the National Register of Historic Places in 1980.
Today Victorian Village runs from Goodale Street north to West Fifth Avenue and from High Street west to Harrison Avenue. Some of the grand houses are still single homes, while others hold several apartments, so longtime owners live next door to graduate students and young professionals. With a Walk Score of 83, it ranks as the ninth most walkable neighborhood in the city, with the Short North along High Street and downtown just to the south.
That mix shapes what Victorian Village neighbors want from a dental office. Renters and students often need someone who can pick up their care after a move, while owners who have lived here for decades want consistency. Infinity Dental offers both: one dentist who gets to know you, and a 7:00 AM start that works around a 9-to-5 schedule or a class timetable.
Its landmarks tell the story of Victorian Village. Goodale Park, the oldest park in Columbus, began with land donated in 1851 by Dr. Lincoln Goodale, Franklin County's first physician, and today its 32.56 acres hold a pond, a gazebo and a 1912 shelterhouse. Nearby, circus owner Peter Sells built the Romanesque Circus House in 1895, and the Pizzuti Collection of the Columbus Museum of Art occupies a 1920s building on the park's east edge.
What Victorian Village Residents Ask Us Most
Appearance comes up early in many conversations. Morning coffee, red wine with friends and a busy social calendar mean stains build up, and people who meet clients or present at work notice their smiles in photos and video calls. Professional Zoom whitening lifts many of those stains, and bonding or contouring can even out a chipped or uneven edge.
Straightening is the other common topic. Adults who skipped braces as teens, or whose teeth have shifted since, can ask about Dandy Aligners, a clear aligner option. Digital scanning replaces the old trays of impression putty in many cases, which makes the first step quicker and more comfortable.
Then there are the surprises. A cracked molar after a late dinner or a lost filling the week of a deadline needs prompt attention. Our office provides same-day emergency care when available, so a call first thing in the morning can often turn a worrying problem into a manageable one.
Gum health deserves a mention too. Stress, irregular sleep and skipped cleanings during a busy stretch at work or school can leave gums puffy and prone to bleeding. A thorough cleaning and exam spot early gum disease while it is still easy to manage, and our hygienists show you where your brushing misses.

Frequently Asked Questions
How far is Infinity Dental from Victorian Village, and how do I get there?
From Goodale Park it is about 8.4 miles, roughly 15 minutes by car. Head west on Goodale Street to SR 315, ride the freeway north to Henderson Road, then use Kenny Road and Old Henderson Road. For anyone who needs a dentist near Victorian Village with a 7:00 AM start, it is a direct trip with no tolls.
Can I switch my dental care here after moving to Columbus?
Yes, new patients are always welcome, including people who just moved to the city. Your first visit includes a comprehensive exam, a cleaning and x-rays with a registered dental hygienist. If your previous dentist took x-rays recently, having them sent over can help, and the team will review your history with you at the start.
Can bonding close a small gap between my front teeth?
Often, yes. Dental bonding adds tooth-colored resin to the sides of the teeth, which can close a small gap in a single visit without removing much enamel. Larger gaps or bite problems may be better suited to aligners or veneers. Dr. Woody can show you a smile design preview so you can see the likely result first.
How can I keep coffee from staining my teeth?
Rinsing with water right after coffee helps more than most people expect. Drinking it in one sitting rather than sipping all morning also limits how long the stain sits on enamel. Regular cleanings remove surface buildup, and if stains have already set in, professional whitening can lighten them more than store-bought strips.
Can I fit a dental appointment into my lunch break?
Often, yes. The office is open until 3:00 PM Monday through Thursday, so midday visits are possible on those days. With a drive of about 15 minutes each way, a routine checkup can fit a longer lunch, while larger treatment is easier to schedule at 7:00 AM before work begins.
