Executive Summary

On June 6, 2025, Nunez Dental, a local dental practice, experienced a data breach affecting approximately 3,800 patients, publicly reported via DataBreach.com on July 18, 2025. The compromised data included about 105 unique Social Security numbers, roughly 3,100 phone numbers, email addresses, and dental/medical records for all affected patients. No threat actor or intrusion vector has been reliably established, and the incident had not been independently confirmed by the practice as of the latest reporting.

ObscureIQ assessment: Exposure enables identity theft, insurance abuse, and treatment-themed phishing. Smaller clinic data can also be easier to contextualize for personalized scams.

Breach Impact

Although only a small number of Social Security numbers (about 105) were exposed, dental/medical records for all roughly 3,800 affected patients were compromised, creating medical-identity and privacy risk for the full patient base and heightened identity-theft risk for the SSN subset, plus a large pool of phone numbers usable for targeted scams.
