Dentists in Belmont, CA: Local Guide

Published June 30, 2026 · dental.me editorial · How we verify

Dental.me lists 28 dental practices in Belmont. 16 have a Google rating, and together they hold 796 reviews, with an average of 4.84 and a median of 5.0. None of the 16 sits below 4.0, but eight of them rest on eight reviews or fewer, so read each rating beside its review count.

This guide walks through the Score top six, the six largest review records, the rating spread, website coverage, all twelve Dental.me service lists and three nearby directories.

What the Belmont numbers tell you

The 12 practices without a rating hold no Google reviews in Dental.me’s data, and Dental.me does not record why. The 796 reviews behind the 16 rated offices are not spread evenly: the two largest records, Carlmont Dental Care and Rosario Legasto, show 4.8 on 245 reviews each, together 490 (62%). A high average does not settle the choice; check the service and the insurance you need as well.

All 28 practices have a phone number on file, and 13 have posted hours on their Dental.me profile.

The top-rated dental practices in Belmont

The table below shows the six offices with the highest Dental.me Score, ordered here by Google rating with review count breaking ties. Carlmont Dental Care and Rosario Legasto tie for first by Score. Each name links to its full Dental.me profile.

Read the table in two directions. The 5.0s of Marc Schwartz and Stanley K Wong rest on 30 and 25 reviews. Carlmont Dental Care and Rosario Legasto show 4.8 on 245 reviews each, the largest samples in Belmont. Katharine Jones DDS a Professional Corporation has a 4.9 on 62 and Val Nickhinson a 4.7 on 129. Seven of Belmont’s nine 5.0s rest on eight reviews or fewer, and none of those seven is in the table. The six largest review records, charted below, hold 737 of the 796 reviews (93%); the sixth is Peninsula Specialty Dental Care (4.7 on 26), seventh by Score, which is not in the table.

How the Dental.me Score works

The star rating in the table is the practice’s Google rating, which Dental.me does not set. The Dental.me 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. That is why Carlmont Dental Care and Rosario Legasto (4.8 on 245 each) rank above Marc Schwartz (5.0 on 30), who is fifth. For the full method, see how we rank dentists.

Paid placements are clearly labeled as Featured and never change the organic order. The 12 unrated practices have no Google rating to weigh, so they sit below the rated offices on the Score. That is not a mark against their care.

Reading Belmont’s rating bands

12 of the 16 rated offices (75%) sit at 4.8 or higher, and they hold 627 reviews; seven of the 12 rest on 14 reviews or fewer. Three sit between 4.5 and 4.79, among them Val Nickhinson (4.7 on 129), the third-largest record, and Peninsula Specialty Dental Care (4.7 on 26), the sixth-largest. One office, Marites Escarpe (4.1 on 12), sits between 4.0 and 4.49, and none sits below 4.0.

Website coverage and review depth

Of the 28 practices in the directory, 11 have a website on file and 17 do not; ten of the 11 are rated offices. Six rated offices have no website on file, among them Rosario Legasto (4.8 on 245) and Stanley K Wong Family / Cosmetic Dental Office (5.0 on 25). A missing URL only means Dental.me holds no web link for that office; it says nothing about the care.

Review depth is the other thing to check. Carlmont Dental Care and Rosario Legasto together hold 490 of the 796 reviews (62%), and eight of the 16 rated offices rest on eight reviews or fewer. When two offices show similar stars, the one with more reviews rests on a larger sample, so read volume alongside the headline number.

What Belmont’s twelve service lists hold

The chart below shows all twelve Dental.me service lists for Belmont, longest first. Nine hold at least one office; the oral surgeon, denture and prosthodontist lists are empty.

The cosmetic dentists in Belmont and teeth whitening lists hold the same six offices, and the Belmont orthodontists and Invisalign providers in Belmont lists the same six. The implant, periodontist and emergency lists hold the same three offices, and both endodontist listings are among them. The pediatric dentists list holds two. Rosario Legasto and Marc Schwartz, first and fifth by Score, 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.
