Dental.me lists 77 dental practices in Battle Creek. 38 have a Google rating; the other 39 hold no Google reviews in Dental.me’s data, and Dental.me does not record why. Sixteen of the 38 sit at 4.8 stars or higher and nine (24%) sit below 4.0. The 13 in between include the largest review record in Battle Creek, so the middle is not empty.
This guide gives the Score leaders and the largest review records, how the ratings spread, what the twelve Dental.me service lists hold, and the nearby directories. A Google rating and review count are third-party data and do not measure clinical quality.
The shape of the market, in one picture
Battle Creek’s 38 rated practices hold 5,790 Google reviews, and their average is 4.37 stars, with a median of 4.6. The nine offices below 4.0 pull that average down: without them it would be 4.70. Those nine hold 800 reviews, and 641 of them belong to one office. The snapshot:
39 of the 77 offices have no Google rating, and 34 of 77 have a website URL on file (44%), 31 of them rated offices. All 77 have a phone number on file, and 33 have posted hours on their Dental.me profile.
A missing website is missing information, not a mark against an office, and it says nothing about the care. Compare offices on their Dental.me profiles, read each Google rating beside its review count, and call to confirm insurance and services. Dental.me holds no availability data, so call to ask how soon an office can see you.
The Score top six and the largest review records
The six offices with the highest Dental.me Score, listed here by review count. The Score is built mainly from a practice’s Google rating and the depth of reviews behind it, with a small lift for an office that verifies its listing. Every name links to its full Dental.me profile.
- Alisha Hoffman — 5.0★ on 550 reviews, first by Dental.me Score and the largest 5.0 record in Battle Creek.
- Walk-In Dental — 4.8★ on 487 reviews, fifth by Score; call to confirm its hours and walk-in policy, since Dental.me holds no appointment data.
- Capital Avenue Dental Care — 4.9★ on 469 reviews, third by Score and on six service lists.
- Kip Etheridge — 5.0★ on 414 reviews, second by Score.
- Joseph Derose — 4.8★ on 296 reviews, sixth by Score.
- Naturally You Dentistry — 4.9★ on 225 reviews, fourth by Score.
Read each rating beside its review count. A 5.0 on 550 reviews is a much larger sample than a 5.0 on six, and four Battle Creek offices show a 5.0 on six reviews or fewer. You can browse the full Battle Creek directory with the same lens.
These six hold 2,441 of Battle Creek’s 5,790 reviews (42%). They are not the six largest records, which are charted below and hold 3,598 (62%). Three of the six largest are outside the Score six: ACE Dental, PLLC (4.4 on 1,030), the largest record in Battle Creek, 23rd by Score and on eight service lists; Keng Lor (3.5 on 641), the second-largest and 34th by Score; and Brite Dental Partners (4.5 on 421), 17th by Score. Kip Etheridge, Joseph Derose and Naturally You Dentistry are the seventh-, eighth- and tenth-largest records.
Read the ratings the way we do
The 38 rated practices spread across all four bands:
Sixteen offices sit at 4.8 or higher and hold 2,832 reviews, but five of the 16 rest on 14 reviews or fewer. Nine sit between 4.5 and 4.79, among them Brite Dental Partners (4.5 on 421) and Highland Avenue Family Dentistry (4.5 on 273). The four between 4.0 and 4.49 hold 1,053 reviews, 1,030 of them ACE Dental, PLLC’s. Of the nine below 4.0, Keng Lor holds 641 reviews and the other eight hold 159 between them, so a few reviews could move several of them. Our full methodology for weighting rating against review volume is laid out in how we rank practices.
What Battle Creek’s twelve service lists hold
Eleven of Battle Creek’s twelve Dental.me service lists hold at least one office, charted below; the prosthodontist list is empty.
The cosmetic dentistry, teeth whitening and dental implants lists hold ten offices each. The emergency dentists, orthodontists and Invisalign providers lists hold six each, and the orthodontist and Invisalign lists hold the same six. The periodontists list holds five and the pediatric list four. The endodontist list holds two, ACE Dental, PLLC and Eric Shugars (4.9 on 125), and the oral surgeon list holds two, Longhorn Ranch Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery PC (3.5 on 11) and Gary Zoutendam (no Google rating). Keng Lor is on the pediatric list only. Joseph Derose and Naturally You Dentistry, in the Score top six, are on no list. A place on a list shows what an office lists, not how often it does that work, so ask whether the office does your procedure itself. Dental.me holds no availability data, so call to ask how soon an office can see you.
A four-step way to choose
Here is a sequence that uses the data on this page:
Step one: read each rating beside its review count. The 16 offices at 4.8 or higher include five on 14 reviews or fewer, and the largest record, ACE Dental, PLLC, is a 4.4 on 1,030. Step two: check the depth of the record; all six Score leaders hold more than 200 reviews. Step three: match the shortlist to the service list you need. Step four: confirm the office takes your plan and does the procedure itself. Dental.me does not publish prices, and our national guide to dental costs gives no price ranges either; it lists what a quote depends on (the procedure, exam findings, insurance and materials), so ask each office for a written, itemised estimate.
