Murray sits in the geographic middle of Salt Lake County. On paper it is a modest field — 58 dental practices serving a city wedged between Salt Lake City to the north and the south-valley suburbs. But the numbers underneath tell a more interesting story than the practice count does. Of the 29 practices with a Google rating on file, 23 sit at 4.8 stars or higher, about 79 percent of the rated field.

The other headline is volume. Murray’s rated practices have collected 10,906 Google reviews between them — an average of roughly 376 reviews per rated practice. The deepest record belongs to Dr. Wisdom Teeth – Murray, at 1,904 reviews, followed by Creek Capital Dental Holdings at 1,739. With most rated offices at 4.8 or above, the useful comparison is which practice fits your need. This guide works from Murray’s directory data only.

How high Murray’s ratings run — and the one caveat

A 4.76 city-wide average is a strong signal, but it deserves context. Only 29 of Murray’s 58 practices carry a public rating at all; the remaining 29 have no Google rating on file in Dental.me’s dataset. That means the 4.76 describes the visible half of the market. Within the visible half, the ratings are stacked at the top.

Break the rated practices into bands and the shape is almost lopsided. Twenty-three of them earn 4.8 or higher. Four land in the solid 4.5–4.79 range. Exactly one sits in the 4.0–4.49 tier, and just one falls below 4.0. In Murray the top band is the crowded one. With about four out of five rated offices at 4.8 or above, the star rating separates little at the top; the review count and the specialty you need do more of the work. Two of the nine 5.0 ratings rest on a single review each.

The seven at the top of the Dental.me Score

Rating tells you how past reviewers rated an office; review count tells you how many people are behind that number. The seven offices below rank highest by Dental.me Score in the Murray dental directory, with review count breaking a three-way Score tie for seventh; all seven hold 4.9 or 5.0.

• Dr. Wisdom Teeth – Murray — 5.0 stars across 1,904 reviews, the largest review base in the city.
• Creek Capital Dental Holdings — 4.9 stars across 1,739 reviews, the second-largest review base in the city.
• Peak Dental Utah — 4.9 stars, 686 reviews.
• Stubbs Dental Implant Center — 4.9 stars, 672 reviews.
• Kaleidoscope Kids Dentistry — a 5.0 across 557 reviews at a pediatric practice.
• Richard Bauman — 4.9 stars, 227 reviews.
• BSI Murray Dental — a 5.0 across 179 reviews.

Three offices on this list hold a 5.0, on very different review bases: Dr. Wisdom Teeth on 1,904, Kaleidoscope on 557 and BSI on 179. A 5.0 over 179 reviews and a 4.9 over 1,739 rest on very different sample sizes.

It is also worth sitting with just how concentrated Murray’s review counts are. The seven practices above account for 5,964 reviews — about 55% of every review in the city — even though they are about a quarter of the rated field. Four Murray offices pass 1,000 reviews each, so one new review barely moves their averages, and two of them are not on the list above: White Pine Dental (4.8, 1,367 reviews) and Creek Capital Orthodontics (4.8, 1,208), the third- and fourth-largest review counts in the city. Smaller records are a smaller sample, not a lower grade: Romney R Black DDS holds a 4.9 on 29 reviews, and the rating alone cannot settle a comparison with a 4.9 on 1,739.

The rated field has no long low-rated tail: two of the 29 rated offices sit below 4.5, and the lower of them, at 2.0, rests on a single review. Another 29 listings have no rating on file. A Google rating records past reviewers’ experience, not clinical quality, so use it alongside the specialty lists below.

What Murray covers — and where it is thin

Because Murray is embedded in the Salt Lake valley, it does not have to be self-sufficient in every specialty. Eleven of its 12 service lists include at least one practice; the prosthodontist list is empty. Cosmetic dentistry and teeth whitening are the deepest categories at 13 practices each, with dental implants close behind at 10. Of the lists charted below, emergency care is the shortest: 5 practices list it, and endodontists and dentures, at 3 each, are shorter still. An emergency tag is a listed service, not a promise of after-hours availability, so call ahead.

If you have a specific need, the fastest route is the specialty page rather than scrolling the whole directory. Murray has dedicated lists for dental implants, cosmetic dentists, pediatric dentists, orthodontists, Invisalign providers, and emergency dentists.

How to actually choose — a Murray-specific method

Because 23 of the 29 rated Murray offices sit at 4.8 or above, the tie-breakers here are practical. One quirk worth knowing: only 25 of the 58 practices — about 43% — have a website on file. That does not make the other practices worse, but it does mean a phone call will often get you further than a search when you are checking hours, insurance, or new-patient availability. Use the sequence below.

Step three is where the review count matters. A practice with a 4.9 and 1,700 reviews is averaging nearly ten times as many ratings; a 5.0 with 180 reviews rests on a smaller sample. For a big-ticket procedure like an implant or full orthodontic case, compare offices with both a high rating and a large review count — the volume tells you how many reviewers stand behind the average, not how a specific procedure will go.

Looking just beyond Murray

Murray sits among several other cities in the directory. If your insurance network, a specific specialist, or scheduling pushes you outside the city, the neighboring markets are all worth a look: Holladay, Millcreek, Cottonwood Heights, Midvale, Taylorsville, and the far larger field in Salt Lake City. Each of these city pages is built from the same directory data.
