Dentists in Mineola, NY: Local Guide

Finding a good dentist in Mineola starts with the numbers: of the 32 dental practices Dental.me tracks in this Nassau County seat, 20 carry a public rating, and those rated offices average 4.60 stars. Start with the highest-rated, review-backed names below, then match a practice to the care you actually need.

How Mineola’s dental market breaks down

Mineola is compact, but for a village of its size it is dense with dental care. As the county seat of Nassau County and the home of a major Long Island hospital campus, the Old Country Road corridor and the streets around the LIRR station pack a lot of chairs into a small footprint. Of the 32 practices we track here, 20 have accumulated enough public feedback to earn a Dental.me rating, and the picture those ratings paint is unusually strong. Fifteen of the 20 rated offices sit at 4.8 stars or higher, which means the majority of Mineola practices with a track record are clustered near the top of the scale rather than spread evenly across it.

That concentration matters when you are choosing. In a lot of towns the rated offices fan out from great to mediocre; in Mineola the rated field is top-heavy, so your real decision is less about avoiding a weak office and more about which strong one fits your treatment, your insurance, and your schedule. The chart below shows exactly how the 20 rated practices distribute across the rating bands.

It is also worth keeping the gap between 32 and 20 in view. Twelve of Mineola’s practices have not yet gathered enough public feedback to earn a rating from us, and that is not a mark against them. The public review data says nothing further about those twelve. The practical takeaway is that the ranked list below is your fastest starting point, but it is not the whole town. If none of the rated six fits your insurance or your calendar, the full directory still holds a dozen additional offices worth a phone call before you widen your search to the next community over.

The top-rated dental practices in Mineola

These are the six Mineola practices with the strongest combination of rating and review depth, sorted by rating and then by how many reviews stand behind that score. A perfect 5.0 backed by 755 reviews is a very different signal from a 5.0 backed by a handful, so read the rating and the review column together.

Two of these are specialty offices worth flagging before you assume they are your everyday cleaning-and-checkup home. Williston Orthodontic PC carries a flawless 5.0 across 755 reviews, the deepest review record of any Mineola practice outside oral surgery, and orthodontics is braces-and-aligner territory rather than general dentistry. Long Island Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery, PC holds a 4.9 across 1,237 reviews, the single largest review count in town, and handles extractions, implants, and surgical work. For routine care, Eugene Simons DDS PC, Dustin R. Solis DDS PLLC, and PM Dental Care PLLC are the general-practice names to compare first.

Read down the review column and you can see why sorting by rating alone would mislead you. Andrew Sackser DDS PLLC shares the same perfect 5.0 as Williston Orthodontic, but it earns that score across 92 reviews rather than 755 — still a clear, consistent record, just a lighter one. Eugene Simons DDS PC and Dustin R. Solis DDS PLLC both hold 4.9 ratings, at 152 and 118 reviews respectively, which puts them squarely in the reliable-general-dentist range. PM Dental Care PLLC rounds out the list at 4.7 across 242 reviews, the deepest feedback record among the town’s general practices and a useful counterweight to a higher score that rests on fewer voices. None of these six is a weak choice; the differences are about specialty, depth, and fit rather than quality.

How many Mineola offices publish a website

Ratings tell you how patients felt; a website tells you how easily you can check hours, services, and insurance before you pick up the phone. Across all 32 practices in Mineola, 15 have a website URL on file with us. That is a little over four in ten. It does not mean the other offices lack a web presence entirely, only that we do not have a confirmed address for one, so when you reach a practice with no website URL on file, plan to confirm the basics by phone rather than online. For a routine cleaning that is a minor inconvenience; for implant planning or an orthodontic case, where you will want to read up on the approach first, it is worth weighting toward the offices you can research ahead of the visit.

The weight of Mineola’s review record

Depth of feedback is its own signal. Mineola’s rated practices have gathered 2,900 reviews between them, and that total is heavily front-loaded onto a few offices. Long Island Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery alone accounts for 1,237 of those reviews, and Williston Orthodontic adds another 755, so those two practices carry nearly seven of every ten reviews written about Mineola dentistry. That is partly a function of what they do: oral surgery and orthodontics draw patients from well beyond the village, across Nassau County and into Queens, so their review counts reflect a regional caseload rather than just local walk-ins. When you get down to the general practices, the numbers are smaller but still substantial, and they are the ones that speak most directly to the everyday-cleaning experience a Mineola family is shopping for. The bars below show how the review volume stacks up across the top six.

Cosmetic and whitening care in Mineola

Beyond routine and surgical work, Mineola has a small but real cluster of practices offering elective and cosmetic services. Six of the town’s offices list cosmetic dentistry, and six list teeth whitening, so if you are weighing veneers, bonding, or a whitening plan, you have a genuine shortlist to compare rather than a single option. Because these are elective treatments where results and communication vary widely, lean hard on the review depth shown above before you commit, and ask to see the specific work an office does most often rather than a generic gallery. A cosmetic result you will look at every day in the mirror deserves the same scrutiny you would give a surgical referral.

You can browse either list in full on our directory: see every cosmetic dentist in Mineola or compare the offices that offer teeth whitening in Mineola side by side. Both pages sit under the main Mineola dentist directory, which lists all 32 practices, not just the rated six.

Looking just beyond Mineola

Mineola runs right up against several other Nassau County communities, and because the village is only about a mile across, an office one town over can be closer than one on the far side of Mineola. If your search comes up short on availability or your insurance points elsewhere, it is worth widening the net by a few blocks. Check dentists in neighboring Williston Park, in Carle Place along the Old Country Road retail strip, or in Garden City just to the south. Each has its own directory of rated practices you can compare on the same rating-and-review basis used here, and moving your radius out even a single town often surfaces options a Mineola-only search would miss.

How to choose your Mineola dentist

Put the pieces together in order. First, decide what you actually need: a general cleaning and exam, an orthodontic consult, a surgical extraction or implant, or a cosmetic treatment. Mineola has strong options in each lane, but they are different practices, so matching the office to the need saves you a wasted visit. Second, read the rating and the review count together rather than chasing the highest star value in isolation. A 4.9 across 1,237 reviews is a more settled verdict than a perfect score across a dozen. Third, confirm the practical details: whether the practice has a website URL on file, whether it takes your insurance, and whether the hours fit your week. The Dental.me Score that orders these practices is earned from patient rating, review volume, office-confirmation signals, and more; it is never something a practice can buy. Only a Featured placement can be paid for, and it never changes the rating a practice earned. Start with the ranked table, open two or three profiles, and call the ones that fit.

One last note specific to Mineola: because the county-seat location and the hospital campus pull in commuters and referral patients from across the region, the 32 practices here serve a wider area than the city’s own population. If you are a new patient rather than an emergency, call a week or two ahead, ask about the first available new-patient slot, and keep a second choice from the list ready. With 20 rated practices and an average of 4.60 stars to work from, a strong Mineola dentist is well within reach — the only real constraint is the calendar, not the quality.
