Dental.me lists 52 practices in Midland, and the 30 rated offices among them hold 6,179 Google reviews. Those reviews are not spread evenly: the largest record alone holds 1,772, while half of the 30 rest on 52 reviews or fewer. The other 22 practices have no rating on file, for reasons Dental.me does not record, so a missing rating is an absence of data, not a verdict on the office. Dental.me has posted weekly hours for 26 of the 52 practices and a phone number for 51.
The citywide average is 4.47 stars, and it hides a wide spread. Fourteen offices sit at 4.8 or higher and five below 4.0. The lowest of those five is a 2.0 on a single review; without it, the other 29 rated offices average 4.55.
Review depth also varies inside the top band. Ten of the 14 offices at 4.8 or higher rest on 84 reviews or more, but four rest on 15 or fewer: a 4.9 on 15 and three 5.0s on a single review each. A rating on one review is still a rating, but it says far less than the same number on several hundred, so read the rating and the review count as a pair.
The market at a glance
Before names and specialties, look at the shape of the whole market. Half the city’s practices, 26 of 52, have a website URL on file with Dental.me, and 25 of the 30 rated offices are among them. A missing URL means no link is recorded, not that the office has no site.
Notice the concentration. One practice, McLaren Dental Associates, P.C., carries 1,772 reviews at a 4.9, 29% of every Google review of a Midland dentist. The six largest review records hold 5,011 of the 6,179 (81%), and one of them sits outside the top band: PLEV MID PLC holds 796 reviews at a 4.1, the third-largest record in the city.
Reading the rating spread before you read the names
Here is the distribution that the 4.47 average papers over. Of the 30 rated practices, this is where they land:
The 4.0-to-4.49 band is not a list of small records. It holds PLEV MID PLC (4.1 on 796), which is on eight of the 12 service lists, tied with McLaren Dental Associates for the most of any Midland office, and is one of the two offices on the endodontist list. It also holds Stephanie Heyland DMD PLLC (4.3 on 135). A rating does not say what lies behind it, and Dental.me holds no review text that would.
Who the reviews point to
These are the six offices rated 4.8 or higher with the most reviews behind them, in review-count order. The Dental.me Score orders the top offices differently: Advantage Orthodontics is first, then McLaren Dental Associates, Great Lakes Bay Orthodontics, Knight Dental Care and Paul V Anderson DDS PLLC, as in the table above. 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. Paid placements are clearly labeled as Featured and never change the organic order.
- McLaren Dental Associates, P.C. — 4.9 stars across 1,772 reviews. The largest review record in the city, 1.8 times the next.
- Great Lakes Bay Orthodontics, PLC — 4.9 stars across 968 reviews, the larger of the two Midland records with orthodontics in the name. The orthodontist list holds three offices: this one, Advantage Orthodontics and McLaren Dental Associates.
- Advantage Orthodontics — 5.0 across 735 reviews, the largest record among Midland’s five 5.0s and first on the Dental.me Score.
- Knight Dental Care — 4.9 stars across 476 reviews.
- Kathryn Winkel — 4.9 stars across 264 reviews.
- Paul V. Anderson DDS PLLC — a perfect 5.0 across 210 reviews.
A 5.0 on 735 reviews and a 4.9 on 1,772 are both large records; they differ by a tenth of a star, and neither number says anything about clinical quality. The full roster, with weekly hours where Dental.me has posted them, lives on the Midland dentist hub.
Matching the office to the problem
Dental.me keeps 12 service lists for Midland. Every one has at least one office on it, but several are thin. The chart below shows all 12, longest first.
The implant list is the longest, with 8 offices, then whitening with 7 and cosmetic, emergency and periodontist with 6 each. Four lists hold one or two offices: the oral surgeon list holds one, Jennifer Beaudin (5.0 on one review); the prosthodontist list one, Advantage Orthodontics; the endodontist list two, PLEV MID PLC and Kenneth Grove (4.3 on 27); and the denture list two, Advantage Orthodontics and PLEV MID PLC.
Many of these list places belong to the same few offices. McLaren Dental Associates and PLEV MID PLC are each on eight lists and Knight Dental Care on six, so a list of six may hold fewer distinct choices than it looks. The orthodontist and Invisalign lists hold the same three offices: Advantage Orthodontics, Great Lakes Bay Orthodontics and McLaren Dental Associates. 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.
A Midland-specific way to choose
Midland has a lot of review data at the top and very little in the long tail, so a short sequence helps. Work it in four passes:
Begin with the 14 offices at 4.8 or higher, then read the review count beside each rating, because four of those 14 rest on 15 reviews or fewer. Do not drop the 4.0-to-4.49 band unread: it holds the third-largest record in the city and one of the two endodontist listings. Then match the service: open the list for your procedure, since a high rating does not tell you whether an office does it. Finally, confirm the details by phone or on the office’s own website, which 26 of Midland’s 52 practices have on file. Dental.me does not record which insurance an office accepts. 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.
Nearby directories
