Dentists in Leesburg, FL: Local Guide

Published June 28, 2026 · dental.me editorial · How we verify

Leesburg has 23 dental practices in the Dental.me directory, 15 of them rated, carrying a 4.38 average across those scores. To find a good dentist here, begin with the seven practices scoring 4.8 or higher, weigh review volume alongside the rating, and confirm the office handles the specific treatment you actually need.

How Leesburg’s dental market breaks down

Leesburg sits in Lake County on the Harris Chain of Lakes in Central Florida, along the US 27 and US 441 corridor that runs north toward Lady Lake and The Villages. Its dental directory is a mid-sized one: 23 listed practices, of which 15 carry a star rating and 8 are listed without enough scoring activity to show one yet. That split matters when you search, because an unrated listing is not a warning sign and a rated one is not automatically better — it simply means that fifteen offices have accumulated a public track record you can read before you ever pick up the phone.

Across those 15 rated offices the average score lands at 4.38, and the directory holds 4,124 reviews in total. That review pool is heavily concentrated: the two busiest practices alone account for more than 2,400 of those reviews, so the citywide average is shaped by a handful of high-volume offices rather than spread evenly. When you read a Leesburg listing, look at the score and the review count together — a 4.9 built on 1,300-plus reviews is a very different signal from a 5.0 built on a few dozen.

The highest-rated dentists in Leesburg

The table below ranks Leesburg’s top-scoring practices by rating, with ties broken by the number of reviews behind each score. David Wollenschlaeger holds the only perfect 5.0 in the group, though on a smaller review base; the five offices tied at 4.9 include the two highest-volume practices in the entire directory. Read across both columns before you decide — the Profile link opens the full Dental.me listing for each office so you can check specialties and contact details.

Practice Rating Reviews Profile
David Wollenschlaeger 5.0 65 View profile
Marissa Crandall Cruz 4.9 1,389 View profile
Shireen Dhanani 4.9 1,069 View profile
Lee D Tatro DDS 4.9 238 View profile
The Main Street Dentists Inc 4.9 126 View profile
ED Blanton, DDS, PA 4.9 47 View profile

Notice how differently these six offices are weighted. Marissa Crandall Cruz and Shireen Dhanani together carry roughly 2,458 reviews — nearly six in ten of every review in Leesburg’s directory — while Wollenschlaeger, Main Street, and Blanton each sit under 130. A high review count is not proof of better care, but it does mean the score has been tested many more times, which is worth weighing when two practices are otherwise close.

Reading the rating bands before you call

Splitting the 15 rated Leesburg practices into bands sharpens the picture. Seven offices score 4.8 or higher, two land in the 4.5-to-4.79 range, three sit between 4.0 and 4.49, and three fall under 4.0. That top band is where most searches should start — nearly half of every rated practice in the city clears 4.8, so you are not choosing from a thin field. The three offices under 4.0 are worth a closer read rather than an automatic skip: a lower score can reflect a small number of reviews, an older listing, or a specific service mix, and the score alone will not tell you which.

A practical way to use the bands is to treat the top seven as your shortlist, then narrow by two things the score cannot show: whether the office does the treatment you need, and whether it is reachable in the way you prefer. That second point is where website coverage comes in.

Website coverage and how to reach a practice

Of the 23 practices listed in Leesburg, 13 have a website URL on file with Dental.me and 10 do not. A missing URL is not a judgment on the office — it means the directory does not currently have a web address to send you to, not that the practice lacks one. For those ten, the practice profile is still your most complete single view, and it is the place to find the phone number and any other contact details on record.

When roughly six in ten listings carry a website link, a sensible routine is to open the profile first, follow the website link when it exists to check services and forms, and use the phone number for the rest. Calling is the reliable step for questions the directory cannot answer — new-patient availability, insurance participation, and whether a specific procedure is offered on site — but treat the call as confirmation of what you have already read, not a substitute for reading the listing.

Specialty care available in Leesburg

Beyond general dentistry, the Leesburg directory tags practices by the specialized services they offer, which is the fastest way to shorten a search around a specific need. Dental implants lead the way with seven practices offering them, the deepest specialty pool in the city. Cosmetic dentistry, periodontics, and teeth whitening each appear at five practices. Because a single office often carries more than one of these tags, the same highly rated names may show up across several lists — which is convenient if you want implants and whitening handled under one roof.

If you know the treatment you are after, start from the specialty page rather than the full city list. You can browse every office that offers dental implants in Leesburg, compare the cosmetic dentists serving Leesburg, or look at practices offering teeth whitening in Leesburg. Each list is filtered to that service, so the ratings you compare are for offices that actually do the work.

Looking just beyond the city limits

Leesburg is one node in a cluster of Lake County and Sumter County communities, and a nearby town sometimes carries the exact specialty or open appointment you need. If you are willing to drive a short distance, it is worth checking the directories for the surrounding area. The retirement-heavy market just north is covered on the The Villages dental directory, while Tavares practices sit just east across the Harris Chain, and Lady Lake dentists line the US 441 corridor between Leesburg and The Villages. Comparing a couple of these neighboring hubs against Leesburg’s own full practice directory gives you a wider shortlist without straying far from home.

A step-by-step way to choose

Put the numbers together into a simple routine. First, open the Leesburg directory and start from the top rating band — the seven practices at 4.8 or higher. Second, read the score and the review count side by side, so you know whether a rating rests on a thousand-plus reviews or on a few dozen. Third, filter by the specialty you actually need rather than choosing a generalist and hoping. Fourth, open each candidate’s profile, follow the website link when one is on file, and note the phone number. Finally, call your top one or two choices to confirm new-patient status, insurance, and the specific treatment before you book.

Used this way, Leesburg’s directory is less a ranked list to obey than a set of signals to combine. The 4.38 citywide average, the seven top-band practices, the 4,124 reviews, and the specialty tags each answer a different question — and reading them together is what turns 23 listings into one confident choice.
