To find a good dentist in Ellisville, Missouri, start with the 27 dental practices Dental.me tracks in this St. Louis County city: 18 have a Google rating on file, and those rated offices average 4.79 out of 5. Use the ranked table below to compare the leaders by rating and review volume before you call.
Ellisville dentistry by the numbers
Of the 27 practices on file, 18 have a Google rating on file and 9 do not; Dental.me does not record why a rating is missing. The rated offices average 4.79 and none sits below 4.0, so the real work here is separating one highly rated office from another rather than avoiding weak options. Together the 18 hold 1,011 reviews, and the three most-reviewed hold 577 of them (57%). A Google rating does not measure clinical quality, so treat it as one input among several.
Dental.me organizes each city so you can weigh the two things that matter most at a glance: how highly a practice is rated, and how many people stand behind that rating. A 5.0 from 282 reviewers carries more signal than a 5.0 from a handful, and the table ahead shows the review count beside each rating.
The Dental.me Score top six dentists in Ellisville
The table below shows the six Ellisville practices with the highest Dental.me Scores, shown in order of Google rating and then of review count. 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, so the table is not a pure rating sort: six other offices also hold a 5.0 on fewer reviews (Nick C. Ridenhour, DDS 31, Ries Orthodontics 6, Bernard Wilken 3, Christopher Lammert 2, Cyrus Alizadeh 1 and Pierside Dental Care 1), and Ellisville Dental holds a 4.9 on 28. Each name in the table links to its full Dental.me profile, with the office’s listed services and contact details.
| Practice | Rating | Reviews | Profile |
|---|---|---|---|
| Crystal Martin Family Dentistry | 5.0 | 282 | View profile |
| James Vandewater | 5.0 | 153 | View profile |
| Bloomy’s Pediatric Dentistry | 5.0 | 142 | View profile |
| A. Scott Mitchell DDS | 5.0 | 55 | View profile |
| Andrew G. Mitchell, Inc. | 4.8 | 44 | View profile |
| Michael P Frith DDS | 4.7 | 119 | View profile |
Three practices — Crystal Martin Family Dentistry, James Vandewater, and Bloomy’s Pediatric Dentistry — hold a perfect 5.0 while also carrying triple-digit review counts, the only 5.0 ratings in Ellisville backed by more than 100 reviews. If you want a family or general practice, Crystal Martin leads on both measures; if you are looking specifically for a children’s dentist, Bloomy’s Pediatric Dentistry pairs a 5.0 with pediatric dentistry in its name.
How Ellisville’s ratings are distributed
One reason the city’s 4.79 average holds up is the shape of its rating distribution. Of the 18 rated practices, 12 sit in the top tier at 4.8 or above, another 4 fall between 4.5 and 4.79, only 2 land between 4.0 and 4.49, and none sit below 4.0. The chart below shows that spread.
With two-thirds of rated offices in the top band and nothing below 4.0, the practical takeaway is that ratings alone will not fully separate your options — review volume and specialty fit become the deciding factors, which is why the review-count column in the table above matters.
Website coverage and getting in touch
Of the 27 practices Dental.me tracks in Ellisville, 17 have a website URL on file and 10 do not. Fifteen of the 18 rated offices are among those 17. All 27 have a phone number on file, so a call works for any of them.
When a practice has no website URL on file, that is a note about our records, not about the office itself. If a top-rated choice on your shortlist is missing a link, call to confirm hours, insurance participation, and whether it is taking new patients. Dental.me does not record which insurance an office accepts. Dental.me holds no availability data, so call to ask how soon an office can see you.
Review volume across Ellisville’s leaders
Ellisville’s 1,011 total reviews lean on a few offices. Crystal Martin Family Dentistry alone accounts for 282 of them, followed by James Vandewater at 153 and Bloomy’s Pediatric Dentistry at 142. The chart below compares the six practices in the table above so you can weigh how much feedback stands behind each rating. Apex Endodontics, rated 4.6, sits outside the table but holds 102 reviews, more than two of the six.
Notice that Michael P Frith DDS carries 119 reviews at a 4.7 rating — more reviews than seven of the ten offices rated 5.0. A 4.7 on 119 reviews rests on a larger sample than a 5.0 on a few dozen. Weigh both columns together rather than chasing the highest number alone.
Specialty care: orthodontics and Invisalign
Dental.me’s Ellisville orthodontics list and its Invisalign list each hold 5 entries, and they are the same five practices; one of them, Ries Orthodontics, has orthodontics in its name. Ellisville’s lists for emergency care, oral surgery, dentures and prosthodontics are empty. A list entry reflects the services a practice lists, not a specialist credential, so ask an office about its training.
If straightening is your priority, start with the city’s orthodontists in Ellisville and the local Invisalign providers, then cross-reference those lists against the ranked table above so you choose a specialty provider that also holds a strong overall rating. Because both lists hold the same five offices, compare them by rating and review count rather than counting them twice.
Looking just beyond Ellisville
Dental.me also lists practices in nearby St. Louis County cities. Ballwin lists 37 (21 rated), Wildwood 9 (8 rated) and Manchester 16 (10 rated). Dental.me does not measure drive times, so check each address against your route. Dental.me holds no availability data, so call to ask how soon an office can see you. Each neighboring hub shows ratings and review counts, so you can compare across city lines.
To see all 27 Ellisville practices — including the offices that fall outside the top six shown here — open the full Ellisville dentist directory. It lists all 27 practices, ordered by 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. A Featured placement does not change a practice’s Score. On the Ellisville hub, four Featured cards sit above the Score order; they are labeled Featured and clearly disclosed when paid.
How to choose your Ellisville dentist
Put the pieces together in order. First, decide what kind of care you need — a general or family practice, a pediatric office for children, or a specialty provider for orthodontics or Invisalign. Second, use the ranked table to shortlist two or three names that pair a high rating with a deeper review record. Third, check whether each shortlisted office has a website URL on file; if it does, confirm hours and insurance there, and if it does not, call directly. With 18 rated practices averaging 4.79 and none below 4.0, an Ellisville resident is choosing among high-rated options, so let review volume and the right specialty fit guide the final decision.
