Dental.me lists 22 dental practices in Franklin, Wisconsin. 14 of them carry a Google rating, averaging 4.66 stars (a plain mean, each office counted once) across 2,176 reviews. A Google rating is third-party data and does not by itself measure clinical quality.
The Franklin dentist landscape at a glance
Dental.me lists 22 offices here, so the practical task is sorting that field down to a few worth a phone call. This guide uses only what Dental.me has on file for Franklin: how many offices are rated, how their ratings fall, which practices hold the largest review records, how many have a website on file, and which service lists each office is on. Dental.me holds a phone number for all 22 and posted hours for 14.
Of the 14 rated practices, eight sit at 4.8 stars or higher, three between 4.5 and 4.79, two between 4.0 and 4.49 and one below 4.0. The ratings at the bottom rest on very few reviews: the two between 4.0 and 4.49 have five and four, and the one below 4.0 has three. One of the eight at 4.8 or higher, Dental Associates, shows a 5.0 on a single review. Without the four offices on five reviews or fewer, the other ten rated offices average 4.82 rather than 4.66.
Top-rated dental practices in Franklin
The table below lists the six offices at the top of the Dental.me Score order in Franklin; here that is also the order of star rating, then review count. Susan Chmiel leads with a 5.0 on 178 reviews. The table does not hold the city’s three largest review records, which sit just below these six in the Score order because their ratings are lower: ForwardDental Franklin at 4.7 on 502 reviews (Score #8), Robert J. Schweitzer D.D.S., S.C. at 4.6 on 432 (#9) and Advanced Dental Specialists Franklin at 4.5 on 395 (#10). Together those three hold 1,329 of the 2,176 reviews (61%).
| Practice | Rating | Reviews | Profile |
|---|---|---|---|
| Susan Chmiel | 5.0 | 178 | View profile |
| Whitnall Dental | 4.9 | 184 | View profile |
| Michelle L. Lamers, D.D.S, L.L.C. | 4.9 | 128 | View profile |
| Franklin Dental | 4.9 | 121 | View profile |
| Dr. Joshua Neubauer | 4.9 | 102 | View profile |
| Deerwood Orthodontics Franklin | 4.9 | 79 | View profile |
Six Franklin offices show a 4.9: the five in the table and RiverPark Family Dental (4.9 on 42 reviews, Score #7). Two of the table’s six, Michelle L. Lamers, D.D.S, L.L.C. and Dr. Joshua Neubauer, are on none of the 12 Dental.me service lists, so if you need a particular service, check the list pages below as well as the table. Dental.me also lists unrated records named Michelle Lamers and Deerwood Orthodontics, LLC separately. You can see every rated and unrated practice together on the Franklin dentist directory.
How review volume stacks up
Ratings alone can mislead when they rest on only a few reviews, so it helps to look at the number of reviews behind each score. Across all 14 rated Franklin practices, Dental.me counts 2,176 reviews. The six largest records hold 1,819 of them (84%), and three of those six are the 4.5 to 4.7 offices outside the table. Four rated offices rest on five reviews or fewer. The chart below plots the six largest records.
Website coverage
In Franklin, 16 of the 22 practices have a website URL on file with Dental.me and six do not. That does not mean those six lack a website, only that none is recorded in the directory. All 14 rated offices have a website on file; the six without one are all unrated. Dental.me holds a phone number for all 22, so for those six, call during business hours and ask whether the office takes your insurance and whether it can see you as a new patient. Dental.me holds no availability data, so call to ask how soon an office can see you.
Website coverage is not a Dental.me Score input. The 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. A website on file lets you read about an office before you call; it says nothing about the care.
Service lists in Franklin
Franklin’s 12 Dental.me service lists, longest first: teeth whitening 8, dental implants 8, cosmetic dentists 8, pediatric dentists 5, periodontists 5, orthodontists 4, Invisalign 4, emergency dentists 3, oral surgeons 2, dentures 2, endodontists 2. The prosthodontist list is empty. The cosmetic and whitening lists hold the same eight offices, and the orthodontist and Invisalign lists hold the same four: Susan Chmiel, Deerwood Orthodontics Franklin, Dental Associates (5.0 on one review) and an unrated Deerwood Orthodontics, LLC listing. Robert J. Schweitzer D.D.S., S.C. is on seven lists, more than any other Franklin office, and ForwardDental Franklin and Dental Associates are on six. The endodontist and oral-surgeon lists hold two offices each, and Advanced Dental Specialists Franklin is on both. 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.
If you already know the care you need, start from the list page rather than the full directory: the Franklin dental implants page, the Franklin cosmetic dentistry page or the Franklin pediatric dentists page. Each list carries the same ratings and review counts you see here, filtered to the practices on that list.
How to use the Dental.me Score to choose
Eight Franklin offices are rated 4.8 or higher, but one of them rests on a single review. A practical way to work the list is to read the star band, then the review count behind it, then the service lists for your treatment. 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 a 4.9 on 184 reviews ranks above a 5.0 on one: Dental Associates is #12 of the 14 rated offices in the Score order.
Paid placements are clearly labeled as Featured and never change the organic order. The Score order is not the review-count order: the three largest records in Franklin are #8, #9 and #10. For the full method, see how we rank dentists.
Once you have two or three names, call each one. Ask about your specific need, whether they take your insurance, and how soon they can see a new patient. Dental.me holds no availability data, so call to ask how soon an office can see you. 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.
Widening the search around Franklin
If no Franklin office fits, the directory also lists nearby places: Greenfield (38 practices, 21 rated), Wauwatosa (62 practices, 41 rated), Greendale (4 practices, 2 rated). Greenfield and Wauwatosa list more practices than Franklin’s 22; Greendale lists four. Dental.me holds no drive-time data, so check the distance from where you live.
Each of those directory pages uses the same ratings, review counts and Dental.me Score you have been reading here, so you can compare across city lines the same way: read the star band, weigh the review count, check the service lists, and call your top two.
