Dental.me lists 46 dental practices in Okemos, Michigan. 27 carry a Google rating and 19 carry none; Dental.me does not record why. The 27 rated offices hold 5,252 Google reviews and average 4.48 stars. Fifteen sit at 4.8 or higher, and all six offices that lead the Dental.me Score are rated 4.9. A rating is not a measure of clinical quality.
Review counts are uneven. The 5,252 reviews work out to about 195 per rated office, but the median is 72, and four of the 27 rest on 14 or fewer. Read each rating beside the count behind it.
The top six by Dental.me Score
These six lead the 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: Schaefer Dental Group (4.9 on 696 reviews), Reid Olds (4.9 on 576), Valley Dental Spa PLLC (4.9 on 327), Okemos Dental, PLLC (4.9 on 268), Justin Cook (4.9 on 252) and Brian Zirkle (4.9 on 212). Together they hold 2,331 of the 5,252 reviews (44%).
The six largest offices by review count are a different group. They hold 3,571 of the 5,252 reviews (68%): Shelby Rachwal (4.3 on 919), Schaefer Dental Group (4.9 on 696), Discover Smiles Pediatric Dentistry (4.7 on 671), Reid Olds (4.9 on 576), Eric Eby (4.8 on 382) and Valley Dental Spa PLLC (4.9 on 327). Three of the six are in both groups. Shelby Rachwal, the largest office in Okemos by review count, sits in the 4.0 to 4.49 band. A review count is not a measure of clinical quality.
The Okemos dentist hub lists all 46 practices with their ratings and review counts.
Reading the rest of the curve
Fifteen of the 27 rated offices sit at 4.8 or higher, three between 4.5 and 4.79, five between 4.0 and 4.49 and four under 4.0. The four under 4.0 all rest on 43 reviews or fewer. Three Okemos offices are rated 5.0, and one of them rests on a single review. Nineteen of the 46 practices carry no rating; Dental.me does not record why, and a missing rating says nothing about the office, so call to ask about anything you need to know.
Okemos on the 12 Dental.me service lists
Dental.me groups offices into 12 service lists. Thirteen Okemos practices are on the cosmetic dentists list, and the same 13 are on the teeth whitening list. Nine are on the pediatric list, eight on the dental implants list and seven on the emergency dentists list. The same five offices are on both the orthodontist and Invisalign lists, and five are on the periodontist list. Four are on the endodontist list, two on the denture list and one on the oral surgeon list; the prosthodontist list is empty. 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.
For an urgent problem, start from the emergency dentists list (7 offices). Dental.me holds no availability data, so call to ask how soon an office can see you.
Website URLs on file
Twenty-three of the 46 practices have a website URL on file, 21 of them rated offices. Dental.me records the URL, not what the site offers, so check hours, booking and new-patient details on the site or by phone. Dental.me also holds posted hours for 23 of the 46 practices and a phone number for all 46.
How to actually choose, in Okemos terms
Because nearly everyone at the top is a 4.9, the standard advice (“pick the highest rating”) is useless here. Use a sequence instead. First, match the service — a whitening shopper and an implant patient should not be looking at the same shortlist, so start from the specialty pages above. Second, read review depth, not just the star: an office with 600 reviews at 4.9 holds that rating across a large sample; one with 15 reviews at 5.0 rests on a small one. Third, confirm the website and check that hours and services are current. Fourth, call. Ask whether they are taking new patients, whether they are in-network for your plan, and how they handle after-hours emergencies. Dental.me holds no review dates, so it cannot tell you how recent an office’s reviews are.
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.

Dental.me holds no drive-time data, so check the distance from where you live. For a service with few Okemos offices on its list, compare the same list in a neighbouring directory.
