Directory data as of October 2026. Google ratings/review counts are third-party data and do not by themselves prove clinical quality.

Dental.me lists 55 dental practices in Muskegon, and 37 of them carry a Google rating. Those 37 average 4.22, but the average hides a wide spread: 20 offices sit at 4.8 or higher and 9 sit below 4.0. Seven of those nine rest on 8 or fewer reviews, so the low end is mostly small samples. Dental.me holds a phone number for all 55 and posted hours for 30 of the 55.

This guide reads Muskegon’s directory data, 7,412 Google reviews across 37 rated practices, to show how the ratings break down, where the reviews are concentrated and what the twelve service lists show. Start with the full Muskegon dentist directory if you want to browse the field yourself.

How Muskegon’s 37 ratings break down

Of the 37 rated practices, 20 sit at 4.8 or higher, 4 between 4.5 and 4.79, 4 between 4.0 and 4.49, and 9 below 4.0. The nine below 4.0 pull the city average down to 4.22. Dental.me does not record why the other 18 practices carry no rating.

37 rated Muskegon practices by star band 7 of the 9 offices below 4.0 rest on 8 or fewer reviews. 20 4.8+ star 4 4.5–4.79 4 4.0–4.49 9 Below 4.0 practices

In percentages, 54% of Muskegon’s rated practices sit at 4.8 or higher and 24% below 4.0. Only two of the nine below 4.0 rest on large samples: Dental Dreams PLLC (3.6 on 801 reviews) and Hackley Community Care (3.9 on 376). The other seven hold 8 reviews or fewer each, so one or two new reviews can move them. A rating is not a measure of clinical quality.

The Dental.me Score top six

The table above is ordered by Dental.me Score, which 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. The star figure on each profile is the Google rating on file. Paid placements are clearly labeled as Featured and never change the organic order.

Laketown Family Dental ranks first, with 5.0 on 859 reviews, the largest record among Muskegon’s eight 5.0s (five of the other seven rest on 6 or fewer reviews). Thielbar Family Dental is second at 4.9 on 560 reviews.

Karl Evanoff (4.9 on 499) and Bruce Jones (4.9 on 270) come next, then Justin Terry (4.9 on 206) and Eric V. Sesselmann, DDS PC (4.9 on 197). Thielbar Family Dental, Justin Terry and Eric V. Sesselmann are on none of Dental.me’s twelve service lists, so ask those offices what they offer.

Together the Score six hold 2,591 of Muskegon’s 7,412 reviews (35%). The largest single record is not among them: Jessica Lambert shows 4.8 on 1,750 reviews and is #7 by Score. The chart below shows the six largest review counts in the city.

Reading a rating with its review count

Review count matters as much as the star figure. A 5.0 on a handful of reviews can move with one new review, while Laketown Family Dental’s 5.0 rests on 859. Dental.me holds no review dates, so the count says how many people rated an office, not how recently.

The same reading applies below 4.0. Dental Dreams PLLC (3.6 on 801) and Hackley Community Care (3.9 on 376) rest on large samples; the other seven offices below 4.0 rest on 1 to 8 reviews each. Read both numbers before you rule an office in or out, and remember that neither is a measure of clinical quality.

What the twelve service lists show

The six largest records hold 5,130 of the 7,412 reviews (69%), and one of them, Dental Dreams PLLC, sits below 4.0. Dental.me also keeps twelve service lists for Muskegon. The longest are teeth whitening (14 offices), cosmetic dentistry (13) and dental implants (11); the denture list holds 5.

Nine offices are on the emergency list, and seven each on the pediatric and periodontist lists. Dental.me holds no availability data, so call to ask how soon an office can see you.

The shortest lists are orthodontics and Invisalign (four offices each), endodontics and oral surgery (two each); the prosthodontist list holds no Muskegon office. 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.

How to build a Muskegon shortlist

With ratings this spread out, a few checks help. Four of them are below; none of them is a measure of clinical quality.

Four checks for a Muskegon shortlist 1 Check the rating 9 rated offices sit below 4.0 2 Weight the volume 200+ reviews = larger sample 3 Confirm the service Check the 12 service lists 4 Check the website 28 of 55 list one A rating or review count is not a measure of clinical quality.

Take them in order: the rating, then the review count behind it, then whether the office is on the service list you need, then the website. A rating below 4.0 on one to eight reviews says less than the same rating on several hundred. Dental.me holds no availability data, so call to ask how soon an office can see you.

Twenty-eight of Muskegon’s 55 practices have a website URL on file with Dental.me. A website is not a clinical credential, but it is where an office describes its services and the insurance it takes. For the 27 without one, the Dental.me profile carries the phone number.

Nearby Dental.me directories

If the 55 Muskegon practices do not include the fit you need, six neighbouring Dental.me directories are linked from this guide: Norton Shores (19 practices, 13 rated), Grand Haven (27 practices, 16 rated), Spring Lake (12 practices, 5 rated), North Muskegon (7 practices, 4 rated), Fruitport (6 practices, 3 rated), Ravenna (1 practice, 1 rated). No Muskegon office is on the prosthodontist list, so a wider search may help there. Dental.me holds no drive-time data, so check the distance from where you live.

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.
