Directory data as of November 2026. Google ratings/review counts are third-party data and do not by themselves prove clinical quality.

Dental.me lists 49 dental practices in Dover, and 28 of them carry a Google star rating. Those 28 hold 8,555 reviews between them and average 4.41 stars. The other 21 have no rating on file, and Dental.me does not record why. One row holds more than half of the reviews, so read each rating beside its count. Totals on this page count listings, not distinct offices: the 49 rows hold 41 distinct phone numbers, and two rows hold no phone.

Fourteen of the 28 rated offices (half) sit at 4.8 stars or higher; five sit between 4.5 and 4.79, four between 4.0 and 4.49, and five below 4.0. The five below 4.0 hold 118 reviews between them, and three of them rest on seven reviews or fewer. By reviews the low band is almost empty: the 14 at 4.8 or higher hold 3,493 of the 8,555 (41%), and the five at 4.5 to 4.79 hold 4,891 (57%), nearly all of it on one row.

How the ratings spread

By star band, the 4.8-and-up group is the largest, at 14; the other 14 offices fall in the three lower bands (5, 4 and 5). Six of the 14 top-band offices rest on 14 reviews or fewer, and all six offices at 5.0 hold 11 reviews or fewer.

4.8 and up 14 offices, 3,493 reviews 4.5 to 4.79 5 offices, 4,891 reviews 4.0 to 4.49 4 offices, 53 reviews Below 4.0 5 offices, 118 reviews 28 rated Dover practices, 8,555 Google reviews

The gap between a 4.8 and a sub-4.0 rating is wide, but read the count behind each. Access Dental, LLC (3.2 on 65 reviews) and Thomas Postlethwait (3.5 on 41) are the two sub-4.0 ratings resting on more than ten reviews; the other three rest on seven, three and two. A Google rating is an average of reviews, not a measure of clinical quality.

Dental.me holds opening hours for 24 of Dover’s 49 rows, 23 of them rated, and a phone number for 47. The two without a phone are Stellar Orthodontics, seventh on the Score, and a Dental Advocacy Group, LLC row.

The largest review records

The largest review record in Dover belongs to Kehan Li: a 4.6 on 4,749 reviews, 56% of the reviews on these rows. It ranks ninth on the Dental.me Score, which 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, and it is on nine of the 12 service lists, including the only place on the emergency list. The row is named for one person, its URL is americandentalsmiles.com, and it shares a phone with an unrated American Dental Care LLC row at another address, so Dental.me has not established whether that record belongs to one dentist or one office. The next five records all rate 4.9, and the six largest together hold 8,049 of the 8,555 reviews (94%). Four of the Score top six are below; the other two are orthodontic offices, covered in the next section.

The other two offices in the Score top six are on the orthodontist list.

Orthodontic offices near the top

Ahl and O’Connor Orthodontics holds 4.9 stars on 845 reviews and ranks second on Score; 302 Orthodontics holds 4.9 on 359 and ranks fourth. The orthodontist and Invisalign lists are the same five offices: these two, Stellar Orthodontics (4.9 on 30), Kehan Li and Access Dental.

Dental.me holds no review dates, so it cannot say how recent any of these reviews are or what stage of treatment they describe. A 4.9 on 845 reviews moves less with each new review than a rating built on a few dozen.

Dental.me keeps 12 service lists for Dover. The whitening, cosmetic and implant lists hold 11 offices each, and the whitening and cosmetic lists are the same 11. Pediatric dentists and periodontists list six each; endodontists and dentures three each; oral surgeons two; and the emergency and prosthodontist lists one office each (Kehan Li and Delmarva Prosthodontics, a 5.0 on three reviews). A place on a list is a directory category. It does not show how often an office does that work, so ask whether it does your procedure itself. Only 24 of the 49 rows are on any list, and the lists are not separate pools: every periodontist, oral-surgeon, denture and prosthodontist row is also on the implant list, and the two oral-surgeon rows give URLs on one site, firststateoms.com.

Implants 11 Whitening 11 Cosmetic 11 Pediatric 6 Periodontics 6 Orthodontics 5 Invisalign 5 Endodontics 3 Dentures 3 Oral surgery 2 Emergency 1 Prosthodontics 1 Listings per service list; one office can be on several

If you need a dental implant provider in Dover, a cosmetic dentist, or a practice for teeth whitening, those are the longest lists, at eleven rows apiece. Families can browse pediatric dentists. Of that list’s six rows, Louie Lawrence a DDS (4.5 on 24) and an unrated Louie Pediatric Dentistry row give one suite. The orthodontists in Dover page holds the five rows named above.

Website URLs on file

26 of the 49 rows have a website URL on file, just over half, 24 of them rated. A missing URL in our records says nothing about the care, and Dover’s ten most-reviewed offices all have a website URL on file. Of the 23 rows without one, 19 are also unrated, so for them a call is the main way to learn more.

Read who a row is before you call. The name on a row and its URL can differ: Robert R. Coope DDS PA has carefirstdentalteam.com, Heather Boyle has thomasfamilydentist.com, and Steven D Nemcic has fontanaperio.com and shares a phone with an unrated John B. Fontana III row. Five of the 49 rows give 250 Beiser Blvd and four give 125 Greentree Dr. Two unrated Dental Advocacy Group, LLC rows have usgmbhub.com and roofingrepairteam.site, and an unrated Shanghai Dental Direct row gives an (800) number; Dental.me has not established what these rows are. The Dover dentist directory holds every row, so ask who you would see when you call.

A simple way to choose in Dover

One sequence, with what each shortcut leaves out:

1 Start from what you need 24 of the 49 rows are on a service list 2 Read the count beside the stars All six 5.0 ratings rest on 11 reviews or fewer 3 Do not stop at a 4.5 line It cuts a row from eight lists, and all 21 unrated rows 4 Call more than one office Ask about insurance, new patients and how soon

A 4.5 line sets aside nine rated offices, including Aloe & Carr (3.3 on 7), one of three rows on the endodontist list, and Access Dental (3.2 on 65), one of six on the pediatric list. 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.

Other directories nearby

This guide links five nearby places, listed below with their Dental.me counts. Together they list 32 practices, 16 of them rated, fewer than the 49 here, and they do not widen Dover’s shortest lists: all five read 0 on the prosthodontist, endodontist and oral-surgeon lists, and only Smyrna and Milford hold an emergency row, one each. Dental.me also lists Middletown (36 practices, 24 rated; 3 on the endodontist list, 1 on the oral-surgeon list), Newark (88, 46 rated; 3 and 9) and Wilmington (229, 119 rated; 15 and 25). The prosthodontist list reads 0 in Middletown and Newark and 1 in Wilmington. Dental.me holds no drive-time data, so check the distance from where you live.
