Dental.me lists 39 practices in Mount Vernon. 21 of them have a Google rating and 12 have a website URL on file. The 21 rated offices average 4.08 stars, but the median is 4.8: 11 rated offices sit at 4.8 or higher, 5 sit below 4.0, and 5 fall in between. Dental.me has a phone number for all 39 and posted opening hours for 15.
If you take one thing from this guide, take this: in Mount Vernon the city average describes few offices. Four of the five below 4.0 rest on five reviews or fewer, and the five together hold 39 of the 3,070 reviews. Below we show which offices lead on the Dental.me Score, how many have no website URL on file, and how to compare them. A star rating does not measure clinical quality.
The market at a glance
Across those 39 practices, Dental.me counts 3,070 Google reviews, and they are unevenly spread: the six offices with the most reviews hold 2,574 of them, or 84 percent, and the median rated office has 11. The other 18 of the 39 practices have no Google rating on file, and Dental.me cannot say why. An average built on 21 offices cannot describe 39, so read the market office by office.
A star average does not show billing practices, scheduling or chairside manner, so ask the office directly. Dental.me holds no review text or dates, so it cannot tell you what reviewers wrote or how recent a rating is. For a rated office, the written reviews are on its Google listing.
What the website field shows, and what it does not
Only 12 of the 39 practices, or 31%, have a website URL on file. The other 27 have none in our records, which does not show that an office has no website. Swapping the website for the rating does not fill the gap. All 12 with a URL are rated, but of the 27 without one, 18 have no rating at all, and the other 9 hold 65 of the 3,070 reviews. For those 18 we hold a phone number and an address, so expect to start with a phone call.
The Mount Vernon dentist directory lists all 39, with or without a website URL: each location, any service lists it sits on, and whatever Google review data exists. With 27 of the 39 having no URL on file, the directory is the simplest way to see the whole field.
The rating spread
Of the 21 rated practices, 11 score 4.8 stars or higher, the top band. Just one office lands in the 4.5–4.79 band, then 4 practices sit in the 4.0–4.49 range and 5 below 4.0. By office that can look like two camps. By reviews it does not: the 11 at 4.8 or higher hold 2,171 of the 3,070 (71%), the one office at 4.5–4.79 holds 600 (20%), the four at 4.0–4.49 hold 260 (8%) and the five below 4.0 hold 39 (1%). The thin-sample test applies at both ends: four of those five rest on five reviews or fewer, and four of the 11 in the top band are 5.0s on 11, 6, 4 and 2 reviews.
The practical lesson: the low end pulls the city average down, so “above the city average” covers 14 of the 21 rated offices. More than half of the rated field, 11 of 21, sits in the top band; read the review count beside each rating, since a star rating does not measure clinical quality.
Who sits at the top
The Dental.me Score, 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, puts six offices first, all rated 4.9 or 5.0, and between them they hold 2,035 of the city’s 3,070 reviews, or 66 percent. Paid placements are clearly labeled as Featured and never change the organic order. First is 88 Smile Designs (Dr. Edly Destine), with a 4.9-star rating across 781 reviews, the most-reviewed practice in Mount Vernon. Second is Ariel Stein, the only office in the table at the top of this guide carrying a 5.0 rating (313 reviews). Four other offices also hold a 5.0, on 11, 6, 4 and 2 reviews.
Third to sixth are Elevation Dental Studio (4.9★, 363 reviews), Amul Patel (4.9★, 276 reviews), Anthony Debenedictis (4.9★, 211 reviews) and Maxine Dove, D.D.S. (4.9★, 91 reviews). The Score order is not the review order: Paul J. Guerrino, DDS, PC (4.7★) has the second-most reviews in the city, 600, and sits eighth on the Score, behind Wayne Hofflich (4.8★, 113 reviews). Sparkle Dental (4.4★), the sixth-largest record at 241 reviews, sits twelfth.
What the service lists hold
Dental.me sorts Mount Vernon listings onto 12 service lists. Teeth whitening leads at 11 practices, then cosmetic dentistry at 9 and dental implants at 8. The shorter lists: pediatric dentistry, periodontics, orthodontics, Invisalign and emergency care at 3 each, endodontics at 2 and dentures at 1. No Mount Vernon practice is on the oral surgery or prosthodontics list. Those 11 on the whitening list are the only offices on any list, and the other 28 listings are on none. A list entry is a directory category, not a specialist credential, so ask an office about its training.
If your need is cosmetic, browse the full list of Mount Vernon cosmetic dentists or, for a specific brightening treatment, the teeth-whitening providers. For restorative work, our roster of dental implant providers in Mount Vernon lists the 8 offices and their Google ratings. For endodontics or pediatric care the lists are short (2 and 3 offices), and no Mount Vernon office is on the oral surgery list, so call to confirm what an office offers.
Read who is on a short list. Anthony Debenedictis (4.9 on 211 reviews) is on eight lists, the most of any row. The other endodontist row, also on the orthodontic and Invisalign lists, is Broadway Smiles Dental PC, a 1.0 on 4 reviews. Growing Pearls Pediatric Dentistry (5.0 on 11) is on the pediatric and emergency lists. Ariel Stein is the only denture row and one of three emergency rows, with Sparkle Dental. An emergency list entry does not show whether an office can see you today, so call.
How to compare offices
Compare each rating with its review count, then call to confirm services, insurance and timing. A 4.8 cut-off is not a shortcut here: it drops Paul J. Guerrino, DDS, PC (4.7 on 600), the second-largest record and one of three rows on the periodontics and orthodontic lists, along with Sparkle Dental, and removes 899 of the 3,070 reviews. 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.

Other directories
Of these six directories, only New Rochelle is larger than Mount Vernon’s 39: Pelham (14 practices listed, 8 rated), Pelham Manor (2, 1 rated), Bronxville (31, 18 rated), Tuckahoe (17, 14 rated), New Rochelle (85, 47 rated) and Eastchester (22, 12 rated). For the two empty Mount Vernon lists, Bronxville lists 3 oral surgeons, Pelham 2, Eastchester 2 and New Rochelle 7, and only New Rochelle lists prosthodontists (2). Larger directories read higher: Yonkers (147 practices, 8 oral surgeons, 2 prosthodontists), White Plains (157, 10 and 3) and the Bronx (760, 43 and 7). Dental.me does not measure drive times, so check each address against your route.
Totals on this page count listings, not distinct offices: 12 of the 39 rows share a phone number or address with another row. Paul J. Guerrino, DDS, PC shares a street address with a second Paul Guerrino row (4.0 on 9), and two Family Dentistry rows share a suite with a 5.0 on 2 and a 2.3 on 3. Two unrated names, Classic Dental Laboratory and Cora Materials Corporation, may not be patient offices. They are counted in the 39, and we have not merged or removed any of these.
