To find a good dentist in Cave Creek, start with the numbers: the Dental.me directory tracks 26 practices here, 14 of which carry a public rating, and those rated practices average 4.89 stars. That tight, high band means your real job is narrowing an already-strong field rather than screening out weak options.
Cave Creek is a small town in the northern reaches of Maricopa County, sitting just west of Carefree and north of Scottsdale and Phoenix. For a place its size, the dental directory is deep and the ratings are unusually clustered near the top of the scale. This guide walks through exactly what those 26 listings look like once you sort them by rating, review volume, website coverage, and the specialties available inside town and a short drive beyond it.
How Cave Creek’s dentists stack up by rating
Of the 26 practices listed for Cave Creek, 14 have accumulated enough public feedback to carry a rating. Among those 14, the distribution is striking: 12 sit at 4.8 stars or higher, 2 land in the 4.5-to-4.79 range, and not a single rated office falls below 4.5. There are no practices in the 4.0-to-4.49 band and none under 4.0. In other words, once a Cave Creek practice has been rated at all, it has almost certainly earned a strong score.
Practically, this changes how you should shop. In a town where the rated field runs from 4.5 to a perfect 5.0, a raw star score alone will not separate the pack. The more useful signals are how many reviews sit behind a given score and whether the practice offers the specific procedure you need. Both of those are covered below.
The top-rated practices in Cave Creek
Here are the six most-reviewed and highest-rated Cave Creek practices in the directory, sorted by rating and then by review count. Every rating and review figure below comes straight from the practice’s Dental.me profile, and each name links to that profile for hours, location, and the full review history.
| Practice | Rating | Reviews | Profile |
|---|---|---|---|
| Taylor-Marie Breeding | 5.0 | 855 | View profile |
| Spur Cross Dental Spa | 5.0 | 116 | View profile |
| Mikhail Prokopets | 5.0 | 98 | View profile |
| Dr Michael Beckham DDS PC | 4.9 | 518 | View profile |
| Anddental | 4.9 | 228 | View profile |
| Cave Creek Dentistry, LLP | 4.8 | 295 | View profile |
Three practices — Taylor-Marie Breeding, Spur Cross Dental Spa, and Mikhail Prokopets — hold a perfect 5.0. What sets them apart from one another is depth of feedback, and that is where the review column earns its keep.
Reading the review counts
Across the whole Cave Creek directory, practices have logged 3,098 reviews. A large share of that total sits with a handful of offices. Taylor-Marie Breeding alone carries 855 reviews at a 5.0 rating, the single largest body of feedback in town. Dr Michael Beckham DDS PC follows with 518 reviews at 4.9, and Cave Creek Dentistry, LLP holds 295 at 4.8. The chart below plots the six leaders against one another so you can see how the volume is distributed.
Volume matters because it tells you how settled a score is. A 5.0 backed by 855 reviews reflects a long, consistent track record, while a 5.0 backed by 98 reviews is still an excellent result but rests on a smaller sample. Neither is a reason to rule an office out; the point is simply to weigh a perfect score against how much feedback stands behind it, then match that to how much certainty you want before booking.
Website coverage across the directory
Of the 26 Cave Creek practices in the directory, 14 have a website URL on file — the same 14 that carry a rating. The other 12 are listed without a website link recorded, which usually just means the profile is where you will find their details rather than a separate site. When a practice has a website on file, it is often the quickest way to check hours, confirm which insurance plans are accepted, and see whether online booking is offered before you pick up the phone.
None of the top six by rating is missing a website link, so if your shortlist comes from the table above, you can research all six online first. For the smaller, unrated practices, the profile page remains the reliable starting point.
Specialty care in and around Cave Creek
Cave Creek’s directory is not limited to general checkups. Several practices list specialty and cosmetic services, and the counts show real depth for a town this size. Cosmetic dentistry and teeth whitening each appear on 8 practices, dental implants on 7, periodontal care on 6, and both orthodontics and Invisalign on 5. If you need a specific procedure, that availability should shape your shortlist as much as any star rating.
You can browse each service directly: the Cave Creek dental implants page lists the 7 offices that place implants, the cosmetic dentists in Cave Creek page collects all 8, and the Cave Creek orthodontists page gathers the 5 practices offering braces and alignment. Filtering by procedure first, then comparing ratings and review counts within that shorter list, is usually the fastest route to a confident decision.
Looking just beyond Cave Creek
Cave Creek sits inside a cluster of communities in the north Valley, so if your shortlist comes up short — or a specialist you need is booked out — neighboring directories are close at hand. Immediately to the east is Carefree, which shares a border with Cave Creek. A short drive south leads into Scottsdale, the largest nearby directory with a far bigger roster of practices and specialists. To the northwest, Anthem offers another set of listings along the I-17 corridor. Widening the search this way is worth doing before you settle, since a specific procedure or an earlier appointment may be easier to find one town over.
When you are ready to return to the full local list, the Cave Creek dentist directory holds all 26 practices with their ratings, review counts, and services in one place.
How to use the Dental.me Score to decide
Every rating you see here feeds into the Dental.me Score, which weighs a practice’s star rating, its review volume, and whether its office details are confirmed, among other signals. The Score is earned from that record, never sold — only a Featured placement can be paid for, and paying for it cannot change a practice’s rating or its position in the ranked table above. That separation is why the table is sorted purely by rating and review count.
For Cave Creek specifically, a sensible process looks like this: decide whether you need a specialty (implants, cosmetic work, orthodontics) and start from that service page; within the resulting list, favor practices whose high rating is backed by a substantial number of reviews; confirm hours and insurance on the practices that have a website URL on file; and keep a neighboring directory like Scottsdale or Carefree in reserve if scheduling is tight. With 12 of the 14 rated offices scoring 4.8 or higher, the odds are firmly in your favor from the start.
