Bullhead City has 32 dental practices, 20 of them rated, with an average rating of 4.27 across town. To find a good dentist here, start with the 11 offices scoring 4.8 or higher, weigh each review count alongside the score, and confirm the practice actually handles the specific care your family needs.
Sitting on the Arizona side of the Colorado River in Mohave County, Bullhead City stretches along the water opposite Laughlin, Nevada, with Fort Mohave just to the south and the county seat of Kingman to the east. Its dental market is mid-sized and clustered, which is good news when you are choosing: a shortlist of a dozen or so strong offices is realistic to work through in an afternoon. This guide breaks down every number Dental.me holds on the city so you can move from a long list of 32 names to a short list of two or three you would actually call.
What the numbers say about dentists in Bullhead City
Of the 32 practices Dental.me tracks in Bullhead City, 20 currently carry a rating, which means 12 are listed but have not yet accumulated enough feedback to score. The town-wide average across the rated offices is 4.27 — a healthy figure, but one that hides a wide spread. Eleven offices sit at 4.8 or higher, while four fall below 4.0, so the average is doing a lot of averaging. Reading the distribution matters more than the single headline number, because the top and bottom of the range describe very different offices.
The shape here is encouraging: more than half of the rated offices land in the top band. When a market is this top-heavy, the smart move is to compare the high scorers against one another on the things a rating cannot capture — location relative to your side of the river, whether they take your insurance, and how quickly they can seat a new patient — rather than settling for the first name you recognize.
The highest-rated practices in Bullhead City
The table below ranks the six Bullhead City practices Dental.me surfaces most prominently, sorted by rating and then by review volume. Each row links straight to the office’s full Dental.me profile, where its Bullhead City directory listing carries the complete history behind the score.
| Practice | Rating | Reviews | Profile |
|---|---|---|---|
| Valley Dental Associates | 5.0 | 610 | View profile |
| Gibson Orthodontics | 5.0 | 83 | View profile |
| Bullen and Beckstrand Orthodontics | 4.9 | 96 | View profile |
| George Flitcraft | 4.9 | 74 | View profile |
| Crossroads Family Dental Care | 4.8 | 1,275 | View profile |
| Canyon View Dental Care | 4.8 | 632 | View profile |
Seven Bullhead City offices hold a perfect 5.0. Valley Dental Associates carries that score across 610 reviews, an unusually deep track record for a flawless average, while Gibson Orthodontics also holds 5.0 across a smaller 83-review base. Bullen and Beckstrand Orthodontics and George Flitcraft follow at 4.9. The most-reviewed office in town is Crossroads Family Dental Care, whose 4.8 rests on 1,275 reviews — by far the largest volume on this list. A 4.8 that has survived that many entries tells you something different than a 5.0 across a few dozen: it is a score with a lot of ballast behind it. Canyon View Dental Care rounds out the group at 4.8 across 632 reviews.
How review depth changes what a rating means
Rating and review count answer two different questions. The rating tells you how well an office has done; the review count tells you how confident you can be in that figure. A 5.0 built on ten reviews can move a full point after one rough week, whereas a 4.8 across 1,275 reviews is effectively locked in. The chart below plots the review depth behind the leading Bullhead City practices so you can see which scores rest on the firmest ground.
Across the whole city, Dental.me counts 3,826 reviews, and this handful of offices accounts for a large share of them. Crossroads alone holds roughly a third of the town’s total. The two general-practice leaders — Valley Dental Associates and Canyon View Dental Care — carry the next-deepest histories, while the orthodontic offices and George Flitcraft sit on smaller, more specialized review bases. None of that makes a smaller number worse; it simply means a high score with a thin history deserves a confirming phone call or a look at the most recent entries before you commit.
Website coverage: what is on file, and what to verify
Of the 32 practices in Bullhead City, 17 have a website URL on file with Dental.me. That leaves 15 with no website URL recorded — which is a note about the listing, not a verdict on the office. A practice with no URL on file may still run a busy front desk and a full schedule; you simply confirm hours, insurance, and new-patient status by phone rather than online.
When you are shortlisting, treat a listed website as a convenience rather than a requirement. Use it to check services, forms, and staff bios before you call, and for the 15 offices without one on file, plan on a two-minute phone call to cover the same ground. The rating and review history do the heavier lifting either way.
Dental implants and specialty care
Beyond general and family dentistry, Bullhead City has specialist depth in one area Dental.me tracks directly: dental implants. Six of the 32 practices list implant services, which is a meaningful cluster for a city this size. If you are researching implants — whether a single tooth or a full-arch plan — that shortlist is the place to begin, and you can filter straight to it on the Bullhead City dental implants page.
Two of the city’s most prominent offices, Gibson Orthodontics and Bullen and Beckstrand Orthodontics, focus on orthodontic care rather than general dentistry — worth knowing if you are looking for braces or aligners for a teenager versus a routine cleaning. For implants, orthodontics, or a standard checkup, matching the office’s stated focus to your actual need is the single most useful filter after the rating itself.
Looking just beyond Bullhead City
Bullhead City anchors a string of communities along the lower Colorado River, and several neighbors are close enough to widen your options without a long drive. Immediately south, Fort Mohave shares the same river corridor and is a short hop down Highway 95. To the east, the county seat of Kingman sits along Interstate 40 and carries its own set of practices. Farther down the river, Lake Havasu City is the largest of the nearby markets and can be worth the trip for a specialist your side of the county does not offer. Checking a neighboring directory is especially sensible when you are chasing a specific specialty or a same-week appointment.
How to choose your dentist in Bullhead City
Put the pieces together in order. Start with the 11 offices rated 4.8 or higher, since that band already screens out most of the risk in a market averaging 4.27. Next, look at the review count behind each score — a 4.8 across 1,275 reviews like Crossroads and a 5.0 across 610 like Valley Dental are both well-established, while a strong score on a thin history is a good candidate that simply warrants a confirming glance at recent entries. Then match the office’s focus to your need: general and family care, orthodontics, or one of the five implant providers. Finally, handle the practical layer by phone or website — insurance, new-patient openings, and hours — and remember that whether a website URL is on file says nothing about how the office runs. Every score on Dental.me is earned from a practice’s own rating and feedback history and weighs several signals together; it is never something an office can buy, and only Featured placement can be paid for.
