To find a dentist in Coralville, start with the numbers: Dental.me lists 32 practices here, 17 of them carry a Google rating, and the rated group averages 4.63 stars (a plain mean, each rated office counted once) across 3,482 Google reviews. This guide shows which records hold those reviews, how many offices are on each service list and where to widen the search.
The Coralville dentist directory lists 32 practices, few enough to read every rated record in one sitting. This guide walks through what Coralville’s numbers say, which offices hold the most reviews, and how to line a practice up against whatever brought you searching, whether that’s a cracked molar, a first pediatric cleaning, or a move into town.
What Coralville’s dental numbers actually tell you
Of the 32 practices Dental.me lists in Coralville, 17 carry a Google rating and 15 are listed without one; Dental.me does not record why. Dental.me holds a phone number for all 32, posted hours for 16 and a website URL for 15. A little more than half of the town’s offices give you a rating to compare, and the rest ask you to make first contact before you can judge them.
The 17 rated practices average 4.63 stars, and the median rated office has 63 reviews. Website coverage is thinner: 15 of the 32 practices have a website URL on file with Dental.me, including 13 of the 17 rated offices. For the other 17, no website URL is on file, so insurance questions and new-patient paperwork will start with a phone call rather than a click. None of that reflects the quality of care behind the door; it only changes how you make first contact.
Coralville’s top six in the Dental.me Score
The table below lists the first six practices in the Dental.me Score order, sorted by rating and then by review count. Three hold a perfect 5.0 and three hold 4.9; the three 4.9s are the three largest review records in town. Six Coralville offices hold a 5.0 in all, and the other three rest on 10 reviews or fewer: Kambhu Dental Associates (10), Prosthodontic Associates, Inc. (2) and Pediatric Dentristry of Coralville (1). Treat the table as a starting shortlist, then match the service you need before you call.
| Practice | Rating | Reviews | Profile |
|---|---|---|---|
| The Children’s Dental Center, PLLC | 5.0 | 438 | View profile |
| Oakdale Dental PC | 5.0 | 141 | View profile |
| Mergen Orthodontics | 5.0 | 121 | View profile |
| The Family Dental Center | 4.9 | 738 | View profile |
| Redhawk Dental Care | 4.9 | 597 | View profile |
| Croco Orthodontics P.L.C. | 4.9 | 543 | View profile |
Read the rating and the count together. The Children’s Dental Center, PLLC holds a 5.0 on 438 reviews, and The Family Dental Center holds a 4.9 on 738, the most in town; it is first in the Score order. Two large records are not in the table: Coral West Dental P.C. (4.6 on 429, the fifth-largest record) and Eastern Iowa Periodontics, PC (4.6 on 318, the sixth-largest); they are 11th and 12th in the Score order. Mergen Orthodontics and Croco Orthodontics are two of the three offices on the orthodontist list; Croco is also on the pediatric list.
Reading the rating bands before you book
Of Coralville’s 17 rated practices, twelve sit at 4.8 stars or higher, four land in the 4.5–4.79 range, none fall between 4.0 and 4.49, and one rates below 4.0. Three of the twelve top-band offices rest on 10 reviews or fewer (10, 2 and 1). The 4.5–4.79 band holds two of the largest records, Coral West Dental (4.6 on 429) and Eastern Iowa Periodontics (4.6 on 318), with Zohreh Asadazadehfard (4.7 on 63) and Town Square Dental Care (4.6 on 9). The office below 4.0 is Chintan Narad at 1.0 on 2 reviews; it is on 8 of the 12 service lists, including the emergency, pediatric and dentures lists, so open its profile before you call.
With twelve of the 17 rated offices at 4.8 or higher, the rating alone will not separate much of the field. Review count, whether the office is on the list for the service you need, and what it tells you when you call do more of the sorting. Dental.me holds no availability data, so call to ask how soon an office can see you.
Where Coralville’s reviews concentrate
The 17 rated offices hold 3,482 Google reviews between them, and six records hold 3,063 of them (88%). The Family Dental Center alone holds 738 (21%). The chart below shows those six largest records, which is why review count belongs next to rating whenever you compare two names.
A rating backed by hundreds of reviews, as with The Family Dental Center or Redhawk Dental Care, moves less with each new review than the same rating on a short history. That does not make a smaller record worse, only thinner, and a review count is not a measure of clinical quality. When two Coralville offices tie on stars, review depth can break the tie; when a small practice shows a 5.0, read the reviews behind it.
Matching a Coralville dentist to what you need
Dental.me keeps 12 service lists for Coralville. Longest first: teeth whitening 7, cosmetic dentists 7, pediatric dentists 7, emergency dentists 6, dental implants 4, orthodontists 3, Invisalign 3, periodontists 3, dentures 2, endodontists 2, prosthodontists 1. The oral-surgeon list holds no Coralville office, and the prosthodontist list holds one, Prosthodontic Associates, Inc. (5.0 on 2). The whitening and cosmetic lists hold the same seven offices, and the orthodontist and Invisalign lists the same three. 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.
Start from the need, not the name. If you have a chipped tooth, the six emergency dentists in Coralville are the list to start from; Dental.me holds no after-hours data, so call to ask how urgent problems are handled. Planning veneers or a whitening treatment? The seven cosmetic dentists in Coralville are the list to compare. For children, the seven pediatric dentists in Coralville include The Children’s Dental Center (5.0 on 438) and Croco Orthodontics (4.9 on 543), as well as Chintan Narad (1.0 on 2). You can always return to the full Coralville dentist directory to see every practice side by side and filter from there.
Looking just beyond the city limits
Dental.me also lists these places: Iowa City (145 practices, 31 rated), North Liberty (16 practices, 9 rated), Tiffin (4 practices, 2 rated). Iowa City lists far more practices than Coralville’s 32, though a smaller share of them is rated (31 of 145); North Liberty and Tiffin list fewer. Each hub shows the same rating and review data, so you can compare an office there on the same terms. Dental.me holds no drive-time data, so check the distance from where you live.
Compare those places the same way you’d compare Coralville: by rating, review depth, and service list rather than by proximity alone. Browse dentists in Tiffin, the larger directory of dentists in Iowa City, or dentists in North Liberty before you settle on where to book.
What about the 15 practices without a rating?
Fifteen of Coralville’s 32 offices carry no Google rating, and that is not a red flag by itself. Dental.me does not record why an office is unrated. The gap tells you how much public rating data exists, not how good the dentistry is. A referral from a friend or your insurer’s directory is a reason to call one of these offices.
The practical move is to treat an unrated Coralville practice as a lead to verify rather than a name to skip. Call and ask the questions a review would have answered for you: how long the dentist has practiced, whether they take your plan, how new-patient exams are scheduled, and how urgent problems are handled. Because 17 of the town’s offices already have no website URL on file, this call-first habit is one you’ll use across Coralville anyway. An office with no website on file may or may not be a good fit, and a single conversation usually tells you which one you’re looking at.
Vetting a Coralville dentist before you book
Once you have a shortlist, a short vetting pass helps. Confirm the office takes your insurance, and ask whether it is taking new patients and how soon it can see you; Dental.me holds no availability data. Ask how urgent problems are handled, especially if the office is not among the six on the emergency list. Check that the location and posted hours suit you (Dental.me holds posted hours for 16 of the 32 offices), and if the practice has no website URL on file, use its Dental.me profile and a phone call to fill in the details you’d normally read online.
Every rating and review figure in this guide is the Google rating and review count Dental.me holds for each office. 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. Paid placements are clearly labeled as Featured and never change the organic order. Set Coralville’s top-heavy ratings against review depth and the service list you need, and a shortlist of two or three is a realistic goal.
