How we ranked them

We started with every dentist in California that we list and kept the 33 with at least 4.0 stars from 10 or more public reviews. Each was then scored on its rating and its number of reviews together, so a 4.9 from thousands of patients ranks above a 5.0 from a dozen. Groups with several locations appear once, at their best-scoring location.

Ratings show what patients thought of their visit. They are not a medical assessment of the clinicians, so also consider location, insurance and availability. Nobody can pay to be on this list.
