This guide reads the Hot Springs directory one figure at a time: Google ratings and review counts, the websites, phone numbers and posted hours on file, and the Dental.me service lists each office appears on. It covers all 69 practices on file, including the 41 with no website URL on file. None of those figures measures clinical quality.
The shape of the Hot Springs directory
Start with the headline numbers. Dental.me lists 69 dental practices in Hot Springs. Of those, 40 carry a Google rating, and together they hold 8,323 reviews. The 40 ratings average 4.71 out of 5; that is a plain mean, each office counted once, and 20 of the 40 rated offices hold 33 reviews or fewer. The other 29 listings have no Google rating on file, and Dental.me does not record why.
Website coverage is thin. 28 of the 69 practices have a website URL on file, about 41%, and 27 of those 28 are rated. Dental.me holds a phone number for all 69 listings and posted hours for 30, so the 41 offices with no website on file can still be reached by phone; a missing URL says nothing about the care inside.
If you need urgent care, Dental.me’s emergency dentists list holds eight Hot Springs offices. Dental.me holds no availability data, so call to ask how soon an office can see you.
What the ratings actually say once you sort them
The 4.71 average is a plain mean, so break the 40 rated practices into rating bands. 26 practices sit at 4.8 or higher, 6 land between 4.5 and 4.79, 5 sit in the 4.0–4.49 range, and 3 fall below 4.0. Roughly two of every three rated offices are in the top band, but 10 of those 26 rest on two reviews or fewer, so read the review count beside each rating before you treat two offices as equal.
When most of the rated field sits in the top band, the rating alone separates few offices. The deciding factors become the ones a star rating does not show: how many reviews stand behind it, whether the office is on the Dental.me list for the procedure you need, and whether it can see you when you need care.
The practices with the most Google reviews
A review count shows how many people left a Google rating, not how good the care is, but a rating on hundreds of reviews moves less with each new review than one on a handful. Six Hot Springs offices hold the largest records.
Porter Dental Health Clinic, PA holds a 5.0 on 1,423 reviews, the largest record in the city, and Stuart Fleischner holds a 4.9 on 1,395 reviews. Those two hold 2,818 of the 8,323 reviews, about a third (34%).
The next four largest records are Sukhmandeep Bhandal (4.3 on 820), Summit Dental Hot Springs (4.7 on 712), Affordable Dentures & Implants (4.6 on 643) and Robert J Barnett DDS PA (4.9 on 414); together the six hold 5,407 of the 8,323 reviews (65%). Bhandal ranks #23 by Dental.me Score, Summit #14 and Affordable Dentures & Implants #19, so none of the three is in the table above, which is ordered by Score. Diamond Lakes Dental (4.9 on 386) and Montgomery Family Dentistry (4.9 on 376) complete the five-row table, and Tri Lakes Dentistry, PLLC (4.9 on 312) ranks #6. You can browse all 69, including the practices with no website on file, on the Hot Springs dentist hub. The chart below plots the six largest records.
Matching the specialist to the need
Hot Springs’ Dental.me service lists vary widely in length, so check the one for your procedure before you assume an office nearby does it. The chart below shows all 12 lists.
Hot Springs’ Dental.me service lists, longest first: dental implants 11, teeth whitening 9, cosmetic dentists 9, periodontists 9, emergency dentists 8, pediatric dentists 8, orthodontists 8, Invisalign 8, endodontists 5, dentures 4, oral surgeons 1. The prosthodontists list holds no Hot Springs office. The endodontists list holds five offices, and only one of them, Hot Springs Endodontics (Stephen Harrison DDS MS and Austin White DDS MS; 4.9 on 124), has endodontics in its name. 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. 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.
A four-step way to choose, built for this city
Because 41 of the 69 Hot Springs practices have no website URL on file, a short list of websites shows only part of the directory. Use this order instead.
Two of these steps matter most in Hot Springs. Step one: because 41 of the city’s 69 practices have no website on file, choosing only among practice websites leaves out most of the directory. Step three: a place on a Dental.me service list shows what an office lists, not how often it does that work, so ask whether the office does your procedure itself or refers it out. Dental.me holds no insurance data, so ask about your plan on the same call.
If no Hot Springs office fits, the directory also lists Hot Springs National Park (2 practices, none rated), Hot Springs Village (14 practices, 6 rated), Malvern (9 practices, 4 rated), Benton (28 practices, 13 rated), Arkadelphia (9 practices, 8 rated), Amity (1 practice, 1 rated). Dental.me holds no drive-time data, so check the distance from where you live.
How we rank these practices
Every number in this guide comes from Google reviews and public practice records, not paid placement. We weight rating alongside review volume and verification — a 5.0 built on a few dozen reviews is held below its full score until more reviews stand behind it. You can read the full method behind these lists in how we rank, and see every Hot Springs practice, scored and ranked, on the Hot Springs dentist directory.
