Start with the rated offices listed below, check how many reviews stand behind each rating, confirm your insurance, then call the offices that fit your part of Madison.
A snapshot of dentistry in Madison
Madison is a Nashville neighborhood along Gallatin Pike, inside Metropolitan Nashville-Davidson County, between downtown Nashville and Rivergate. Dental.me lists 30 dental practices under Madison. Fifteen have a Google rating on file and fifteen do not; Dental.me does not record why a practice has no rating. All 30 have a phone number on file, posted hours are stored for 12, and Dental.me holds no appointment or availability data for any of them. The rated fifteen are the ones you can compare on ratings and review counts.
The 15 rated practices average 4.65. A Google rating shows what reviewers posted, not clinical quality, so read each one next to its review count. The distribution below shows how the 15 ratings fall.
Ten of the fifteen rated offices sit at 4.8 or above, but three of those ten rest on eight reviews or fewer. Four practices sit below 4.5: two between 4.0 and 4.49, on 5 and 4 reviews, and two below 4.0, on 105 and 20 reviews. Read the table and the review counts before you call.
The top-rated dentists in Madison
The six practices below hold Madison’s six highest Dental.me Scores; the table lists them by Google rating and then by review count. By Score, the order is Madison Family Dental, Darren Foster, Fesmire Dental, Thomasson Dental, Thomas Martin DDS and James Williams. The Dental.me Score weighs a practice’s rating, the volume of feedback standing behind it, and whether the office’s core details are confirmed. It is earned through that record, never sold; the only thing a practice can pay for on Dental.me is a Featured placement, which never changes the score itself.
| Practice | Rating | Reviews | Profile |
|---|---|---|---|
| Fesmire Dental PLLC | 5.0 | 424 | View profile |
| Madison Family Dental, LLC | 4.9 | 788 | View profile |
| Darren Foster | 4.9 | 569 | View profile |
| Thomasson Dental PLLC | 4.9 | 396 | View profile |
| Thomas Martin DDS PLLC | 4.9 | 270 | View profile |
| James Williams | 4.8 | 66 | View profile |
Fesmire Dental PLLC holds a 5.0 on 424 reviews. Two other Madison offices also hold a 5.0, on 4 reviews and 1 review. Four offices in the table sit at 4.9: Madison Family Dental, LLC carries the most reviews in the city at 788, followed by Darren Foster at 569, Thomasson Dental PLLC at 396 and Thomas Martin DDS PLLC at 270. James Williams holds a 4.8 on 66 reviews. A rating on a handful of reviews can move quickly; a rating on several hundred moves slowly, which is why the review count sits next to the rating in this table.
What 2,712 reviews across Madison tell you
Madison’s 15 rated offices hold 2,712 reviews in total, and they are concentrated at the top of the table: the six offices above hold 2,513 of them (93%). Eight of the 15 rated offices have 32 reviews or fewer.
Read a rating alongside its volume. An office at 4.9 on 788 reviews and an office at 4.9 on 32 reviews show the same average, but the first rests on far more reviews. Neither is a reason to rule an office out; the count simply keeps a single rating from carrying more weight than it should. In Madison, five of the six offices in the table hold a 4.9 or 5.0 on 270 reviews or more.
The other half of the field
Fifteen of Madison’s 30 listed practices have no Google rating on file. Dental.me does not record why, and a missing rating says nothing about the office either way. None of the 15 has a website URL on file, so a phone call is the way to vet them: ask which dentists are on staff, whether they handle the procedure you need, and whether they take your plan. When you are choosing between a rated office across town and an unrated one nearby, use the ratings to inform the decision, not to make it.
Confirming the practical details
On the practical side, 11 of Madison’s 30 listed practices have a website URL on file with Dental.me, and all 11 are rated offices. An office website may list hours, new-patient forms or a booking link, but Dental.me does not check what each site says. Posted hours are stored for 12 of the 30, and every one of the 30 has a phone number on file.
Of the 19 practices with no website URL on file, 15 have no Google rating and 4 are rated: one at 5.0 on a single review, one at 4.8 on 8 reviews, one at 4.2 on 5 and one at 3.8 on 20. For these offices, the fastest way to check hours, new-patient openings and insurance networks is a phone call. Have your insurance card in hand and ask two questions: are you taking new patients, and is my plan in network.
Specialty care around Madison
Dental.me also lists Madison practices by service. Eight practices are on the dental implants in Madison list, six on cosmetic dentistry, six on teeth whitening and five on periodontal care. The cosmetic and whitening lists hold the same six offices. Four practices are on the orthodontist list, and the same four are on the Invisalign list: Madison Family Dental at 4.9 (788 reviews), Smith Orthodontics at 5.0 on 4 reviews, and two offices with no rating. Three are on the emergency list, two on the oral-surgeon list and two on the dentures list. The pediatric, endodontist and prosthodontist lists are empty for Madison.
Because these lists overlap, one office can appear on several of them; Madison Family Dental, for example, is on 7 of the 12. The implant list includes one office with no rating and one with a 5.0 on a single review, so check the rating and review count of each name. If you are considering cosmetic work or whitening, start from the specialty page, then cross-check each candidate against the ratings table above.
Nearby options when Madison is not the fit
If Madison is not the fit, the neighboring directories use the same rating-and-review comparison. The dentists in Goodlettsville directory lists 38 practices, 23 with a Google rating; Old Hickory dental practices lists 14, 4 of them rated; and Hendersonville dentists lists 76, 47 of them rated. Check whether your plan is accepted before you widen the search.
How to choose and book in Madison
Open the Madison dentist directory to see all 30 practices, ranked by Dental.me Score. Start with the rated offices, match two or three to your insurance and your commute, and confirm new-patient openings by phone or on the website when a URL is on file. Ten of Madison’s fifteen rated practices sit at 4.8 or above, so the deciding factors are usually distance, network and how soon an office can see you, and only a call answers the last one.
If you have a dental emergency rather than a routine visit, say so plainly on the phone. Three Madison offices are on the emergency list, but that listing does not show after-hours availability. Keep two or three names and numbers handy so you know who to call before a toothache starts.
Frequently asked questions
How many dentists are in Madison, TN, and how many are rated?
Dental.me lists 30 dental practices in Madison. Fifteen of them have a Google rating on file, and those 15 average 4.65. The other 15 have no rating and no website URL on file, so they are best vetted by phone.
Which Madison dentist has the highest rating?
Three Madison offices hold a 5.0: Fesmire Dental PLLC on 424 reviews and two others on 4 reviews and 1 review. Four more practices sit at 4.9 on 270 reviews or more: Madison Family Dental, LLC (788 reviews), Darren Foster (569), Thomasson Dental PLLC (396) and Thomas Martin DDS PLLC (270). By Dental.me Score, Madison Family Dental ranks first.
Why should I look at review counts and not just the star rating?
A rating is only as hard to move as the review count behind it is large. In Madison, Madison Family Dental carries 788 reviews while eight of the 15 rated offices rest on 32 or fewer, so a high average on hundreds of reviews is a more settled signal than the same average on a handful.
Do all Madison dental practices have a website?
No. Of the 30 mapped practices, 11 have a website URL on file with Dental.me. The other 19 simply have no URL on record, which is not a judgment on the office; the quickest way to confirm their hours, new-patient status, and insurance is a phone call.
What dental specialties can I find in Madison?
Eight practices are on Madison’s dental implants list, six on cosmetic dentistry, six on teeth whitening, five on periodontal care, four on orthodontics (the same four are on Invisalign), three on emergency care, two on oral surgery and two on dentures. The pediatric, endodontist and prosthodontist lists are empty. Because these lists overlap, a single general office may appear on several.
What if I can't find the right dentist within Madison?
Neighboring directories widen your options: Goodlettsville lists 38 practices (23 rated), Old Hickory 14 (4 rated) and Hendersonville 76 (47 rated), and each uses the same rating-and-review comparison.
Dental.me organizes dental directory data so patients can compare offices with confidence. Use each practice profile and its available website, map, and phone details for current appointment, payment, and care decisions.
