To find a dentist in Hutchinson, Kansas, start with the 33 dental practices Dental.me lists there. Eighteen carry a Google rating, and those 18 average 4.71 stars as a plain mean, each rated office counted once, and 4.80 weighted by reviews, across 3,225 reviews. Of the other 15, six are matched to a Google profile showing no reviews and nine have no Google match. Directory data as of November 2026.
Dental.me holds no review text and no review dates, so it cannot say how recent a rating is or what reviewers wrote; the dates are on each office’s Google profile. One listing, HUTCHINSON FAMILY DENTAL, also carries a plan list, languages and a field on new patients; Dental.me holds those for none of the other 32 and has not checked them, so confirm them with the office.
Of the 15 unrated listings, six are matched to a Google profile showing no reviews and nine have no Google match on Dental.me; Dental.me does not record why. Dental.me holds a phone number for all 33, which come to 29 distinct phones, and posted hours for 16. Two listings give a phone outside the 620 area code: Levi Hansen (316) and RUMORDENTAL LLC (a toll-free 844 number). Twenty-eight of the 33 listings came from the federal NPPES provider registry. A registry listing gives a provider’s name and the address filed with the registry, and it does not show that patients are seen there. Ratings are third-party Google data: they show how reviewers scored an office, not its clinical quality.
The Hutchinson dental market by the numbers
Eleven of the 18 rated offices sit at 4.8 or above and hold 2,289 of the 3,225 reviews (71%); five of the 11 are 5.0 ratings on five reviews or fewer. Four sit between 4.5 and 4.79 (570 reviews), two between 4.0 and 4.49, Dillon Escudero (4.3 on 355, the third-largest record) and James Gertken (4.3 on six), and one below 4.0, SOUTHWIND ORAL AND FACIAL SURGERY LLC (3.0 on five). Two cutoffs cost different things here. A cutoff at 4.8 keeps 11 offices and removes 936 reviews (29%), including HUTCHINSON FAMILY DENTAL (4.7 on 173), third by Score, and SALT CITY DENTAL, P.A. (4.7 on 247), seventh. A cutoff at 100 reviews keeps eight offices and removes 131 reviews (4%), including Jason Hatch (5.0 on 36), sixth by Score, and Brett Lyman (4.9 on 35), ninth.
The chart below shows how the 18 rated offices and their reviews split across four rating bands. A band does not show which office is closest, which plans it takes or whether it does the procedure you need.
The median rating is 4.9, above the 4.71 mean, because the seven ratings below 4.8 pull the mean down. Weighted by reviews, the 18 average 4.80; the two largest records, Grant D. Ringler, D.D.S., PA and Dr. Todd Esau, both hold a 4.9, and the third-largest, Dillon Escudero, a 4.3. A 5.0 on one review counts as much as a 4.9 on 1,053 in the plain mean, so read each rating with the count behind it.
Hutchinson ratings and review counts
The table lists every Hutchinson listing rated 4.9 or higher on 36 reviews or more, plus Salt City Dental, P.A. (4.7 on 247), sorted by rating and then by review count. It is not a full ranking: five more listings hold 5.0 on 5 reviews or fewer, Brett Lyman holds 4.9 on 35, and two of the six most-reviewed listings in town, Dillon Escudero (4.3 on 355) and Hutchinson Family Dental (4.7 on 173), are not in it. Grant D. Ringler, D.D.S., PA and Dr. Todd Esau together hold 1,899 of the 3,225 reviews across the city’s rated listings, 59 percent.
| Practice | Rating | Reviews | Profile |
|---|---|---|---|
| Jason Hatch | 5.0 | 36 | View profile |
| Grant D. Ringler, D.D.S., PA | 4.9 | 1,053 | View profile |
| Dr. Todd Esau | 4.9 | 846 | View profile |
| Susan K. Evans, DDS, PA. | 4.9 | 190 | View profile |
| Travis L. Gillespie, DDS, P.A. | 4.9 | 113 | View profile |
| Salt City Dental, P.A. | 4.7 | 247 | View profile |
Read the two columns together. Jason Hatch holds a 5.0 on 36 reviews, the most-reviewed of the city’s six 5.0 listings. Grant D. Ringler, D.D.S., PA holds 4.9 across 1,053 reviews, the most of any Hutchinson listing and about a third of the city’s total. Dr. Todd Esau is second on 846 reviews at the same 4.9, and Salt City Dental, P.A. holds 4.7 on 247 reviews, the fourth most-reviewed listing in town. Between them, Susan K. Evans, DDS, PA. and Travis L. Gillespie, DDS, P.A. both hold 4.9, on 190 and 113 reviews.
The six largest records hold 2,864 of the 3,225 reviews (89%); the other 12 rated offices hold 361 between them. Two of the six, Dillon Escudero and HUTCHINSON FAMILY DENTAL, are not in the table above. Those counts rest on different sample sizes, and none of them shows how good the care is.
The Dental.me Score and the directory order
The star ratings on this page are Google ratings, not Dental.me Scores. 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. By Score, Grant D. Ringler, D.D.S., PA ranks first, followed by Dr. Todd Esau, HUTCHINSON FAMILY DENTAL (4.7 on 173), Susan K. Evans, DDS, PA. and Travis L. Gillespie, DDS, P.A. The Score rests on the same Google data, so it does not measure clinical quality. Paid placements are labeled as Featured and do not change a practice’s Score. The Hutchinson directory lists all 33 over three pages, with no sort control. It opens with four cards marked Featured, out of Score order, and after those it follows the Dental.me Score. In order, those four are BRISCOE AND DOSCH COSMETIC AND FAMILY DENTISTRY (tied for 16th by Score); Mark Darrah (15th); Dillon Escudero (13th); and Chad Loudenback (tied for 11th).
Five of the six 5.0 ratings rest on five reviews or fewer, and five offices share a 4.9, on counts from 1,053 down to 35. JAY R. STUCKY, DDS PA and Chad Loudenback, each a 5.0 on five, tie for 11th by Score, and BRISCOE AND DOSCH and LAWRENCE L. TRIMMELL, DDS tie for 16th. Those rest on different sample sizes, and none of them shows how good the care is.
The Hutchinson service lists
Dental.me sorts Hutchinson practices onto 12 service lists, from what each office lists. Nine rows are on the dental implants list, eight on cosmetic dentists and five on dentures. Four each are on the teeth whitening, pediatric, periodontist, emergency and oral-surgeon lists, three on orthodontists (the same three as Invisalign), two on endodontists and one on prosthodontists. HUTCHINSON FAMILY DENTAL is on ten of the 12 lists, every one but orthodontists and Invisalign, and Dillon Escudero on eight. Six rated offices are on no list, including Dr. Todd Esau (4.9 on 846, the second-largest record) and Jason Hatch; together the six hold 901 of the 3,225 reviews (28%). Being on no list does not show that an office does not do that work.
Start from the service you need and read every row on that list, rated or not. The Hutchinson dental implants list holds nine rows, including two unrated ones, William Whitlow and STEVEN L. WILSON, DDS, LLC; those two, SOUTHWIND ORAL AND FACIAL SURGERY LLC and HUTCHINSON FAMILY DENTAL are the four rows on the oral-surgeon list. The Hutchinson cosmetic dentist list holds eight rows and the Hutchinson teeth whitening list four. The orthodontist list holds GUST ORTHODONTICS, PA (4.6 on 33), LAWRENCE L. TRIMMELL, DDS (5.0 on one) and an unrated HUTCHINSON ORTHODONTICS PA row. The pediatric list holds Dillon Escudero, HUTCHINSON FAMILY DENTAL, Travis L. Gillespie and an unrated PEDIATRIC DENTISTRY, LLC row; when you call, ask what ages the office sees. Dental.me holds no wait-time data, so call to ask how soon an office can see you. 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.
How to choose a Hutchinson dentist
To choose a dentist in Hutchinson, start from the service you need and read every row on that list, rated or not. Read each count as a sample size, read the address and the phone, then call and ask about insurance, new patients, who would treat you and how soon the office can see you.
A rating cannot tell you whether an office is in your plan’s network or taking new patients. Ask what a first exam and cleaning will cost before insurance and whether the office files the claim for you. Dental.me holds no drive-time data, so check the distance from where you live. 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, itemized estimate.
Websites on file in Hutchinson
Sixteen of the 33 listings have a website URL on file: 15 rated offices and one unrated row, Lucas Carpenter. Brett Lyman, James Gertken and LAWRENCE L. TRIMMELL, DDS are the three rated offices with none. No URL on file does not mean an office lacks a website, only that Dental.me does not hold one. Dental.me did not open these sites, so it cannot say what any of them shows. For the 17 without one, call to ask about hours, insurance and whether the office takes new patients; Dental.me holds posted hours for 16 of the 33.
A URL can name something other than the row it sits on. Dillon Escudero’s URL is an Aspen Dental location page on aspendental.com, and MIDWEST DENTAL KANSAS HUTCHINSON PLUM STREET PA holds drsweetsmiles.com. Several rows under a dentist’s own name hold a practice domain: Grant D. Ringler’s is opnwide.com, Dr. Todd Esau’s esaumillerdentistry.com, Susan K. Evans’s sagebrushdentalhealth.com and Travis L. Gillespie’s hutchdental.com. JAY R. STUCKY, DDS PA (5.0 on five) holds hutchinsonfamilydental.com, the domain HUTCHINSON FAMILY DENTAL holds, and the one unrated row with a URL, Lucas Carpenter, holds prairiestarhealth.org. Nobody has confirmed how a listing relates to its URL, so ask the office who would treat you.
Shared addresses and phones among Hutchinson dentists
Read the address and the phone. The 33 listings give 29 phone numbers, and several unrated rows share a phone or an address with a rated one. SOUTHWIND ORAL AND FACIAL SURGERY LLC (3.0 on five) and an unrated William Whitlow row give one phone, (620) 663-1141, and 2301 N Waldron, and both are on the implant and oral-surgeon lists. Grant D. Ringler, D.D.S., PA (4.9 on 1,053) and an unrated Grant Ringler row give one phone, (620) 669-0835, at 3008 and 3101 Garden Grove Pkwy. Jason Hatch (5.0 on 36) and an unrated John Dahm row give one phone, (620) 665-5582, at different addresses. JAY R. STUCKY, DDS PA and HUTCHINSON FAMILY DENTAL give one address, 3005 Sierra Pkwy, and one domain, with their own phones. BRISCOE AND DOSCH COSMETIC AND FAMILY DENTISTRY (5.0 on two) and an unrated RICHARD L BRISCOE DDS PA row give 1710 E 23rd with their own phones; Dr. Todd Esau is at 1716 E 23rd Ave. Two unrated rows, Lucas Carpenter and Adam Bowen, give (620) 663-8484 at different addresses. Two more, HUTCHINSON ORTHODONTICS PA and Levi Hansen, give 2 Compound Dr and the same digits, 662-6667, under the 620 and 316 area codes; SALT CITY DENTAL, P.A. is at 4 Compound Dr. One unrated row, RUMORDENTAL LLC, gives a toll-free 844 number. Nobody has confirmed how these listings relate, and one street address can hold separate offices, so call before you count them as separate choices. The Hutchinson directory lists all 33 listings, rated and unrated.
