Finding a good dentist in Paramount, California starts with the numbers: the city has 26 dental practices, 16 of them carrying a patient rating, and those rated offices average 4.43 out of five across 2,040 total reviews. This guide ranks the top offices and maps ratings, websites, and specialties so you can shortlist with confidence.
What Paramount’s dental market looks like by the numbers
Paramount is a compact city in southeastern Los Angeles County, bordered by Bellflower, Downey, Lynwood, and Lakewood, with the 710 freeway running along its western edge. For a city its size, its dental footprint is meaningful: 26 practices operate here, and 16 of them have accumulated enough patient feedback to hold a published rating. That leaves 10 practices without a rating on file yet, which usually means they are newer to the directory or simply have not gathered reviews, not that anything is wrong with the office.
The 16 rated offices share 2,040 reviews between them, and their collective 4.43 average sits comfortably in the strong range. That average is a useful anchor, but it hides real spread. Two offices rate below 4.0, while eight clear the 4.8 mark, so the difference between the top and bottom of Paramount’s rated field is wide enough to matter when you choose. The sections below break that distribution apart so you can see exactly where each tier sits.
A couple of derived figures put that 2,040 into perspective. Spread evenly, it works out to roughly 128 reviews per rated practice, which is a healthy base for a city this size. But the reviews are not spread evenly. The six practices in the ranked table below account for about 1,800 of the 2,040 total, close to 88 percent, so a small group of Paramount offices carries the overwhelming majority of the city’s patient feedback. That concentration is worth knowing: when most of the evidence sits with a handful of practices, those are the offices where a rating is hardest to move and easiest to trust.
The highest-rated dentists in Paramount
The table below lists Paramount’s six most-reviewed and highest-rated practices, sorted by rating and then by review count. Every rating and review total comes straight from the practice’s Dental.me profile; follow the profile link for the office’s full record, including its specialties and contact details.
| Practice | Rating | Reviews | Profile |
|---|---|---|---|
| Max Martinez | 5.0 | 473 | View profile |
| Jayantilal Patel | 5.0 | 380 | View profile |
| Paramount Dental and Braces | 4.9 | 235 | View profile |
| Alwan and Shayefar Dental Corp. | 4.9 | 138 | View profile |
| Kaizen Dental | 4.9 | 90 | View profile |
| Leena Jacob Professional Corporation | 4.7 | 484 | View profile |
Two practices, Max Martinez and Jayantilal Patel, hold a perfect 5.0, and they back that score with 473 and 380 reviews respectively, so the rating rests on real volume rather than a handful of entries. If you weigh review count heavily, note that Leena Jacob Professional Corporation carries the single largest review total in the city at 484, paired with a 4.7 rating. Between those poles sit three offices at 4.9, including Paramount Dental and Braces and Kaizen Dental, which is a practical shortlist for most patients. Alwan and Shayefar Dental Corp. rounds out the 4.9 group with 138 reviews.
How ratings are distributed across the city
Averages flatten detail, so it helps to see how Paramount’s 16 rated practices fall into rating tiers. Eight of them, exactly half, earn 4.8 or higher. Three land in the 4.5 to 4.79 band, another three in the 4.0 to 4.49 band, and two sit below 4.0. In other words, the top tier is deep here, and the field thins quickly as you move down. Practically, that means a patient who insists on a 4.8-or-better office in Paramount still has eight to choose from, which is a comfortable margin for matching a practice to your location, hours, or specialty needs.
Websites on file and review volume
When you are trying to reach an office or check its services, a website helps. Of Paramount’s 26 practices, 12 have a website URL on file in the directory, and 14 do not. A missing URL does not mean an office lacks a website; it means the directory does not have one recorded, so for those practices the profile page and a phone call are your fastest route in. When you narrow to the top rated offices, several do have a URL listed, which makes checking hours and services before you call a little quicker.
Review volume is the other signal worth weighing, because a rating built on hundreds of reviews is steadier than one built on a handful. The chart below shows how the top six practices compare on review count. Leena Jacob Professional Corporation and Max Martinez lead at 484 and 473, and even the sixth office on the list, Kaizen Dental, holds 90 reviews, which is a solid base for a 4.9 rating.
Reading a rating and a review count together
Paramount is a good place to practice a habit that serves you in any city: read the star rating and the review count as a pair, never on their own. A 5.0 tells you that almost everyone who left feedback was satisfied, but it means the most when it is backed by volume, which is why Max Martinez at 5.0 on 473 reviews is such a strong entry. A 4.7 on 484 reviews, like Leena Jacob Professional Corporation, is a different kind of strength: the score has held steady across the largest sample in the city, and a rating that stable across that many entries is slow to drift.
The offices at 4.9, from Paramount Dental and Braces down to Kaizen Dental, sit in the sweet spot most patients are looking for, near the top of the scale with review counts from 90 to 235. And the two practices below 4.0 are a reminder that the city’s 4.43 average is pulled down by a small tail, not by a broadly mediocre field. When you compare two Paramount offices, put their numbers side by side rather than trusting either figure alone, and lean toward the practice whose rating rests on the deeper record.
Specialty care available in Paramount
Beyond general checkups, Paramount’s practices list a range of specialty services, and the counts tell you how much local choice you have for each. Implant dentistry, orthodontics, and Invisalign are the deepest, with seven practices each. Cosmetic dentistry, pediatric care, and teeth whitening each list five. That breadth means most routine and cosmetic needs can be met without leaving the city.
If you already know what you need, browsing by specialty is the fastest way to narrow the field. You can jump straight to implant dentists in Paramount, review the city’s orthodontists, or compare Invisalign providers side by side. Each specialty page filters the directory down to the practices that list that service, so you are not sorting through general offices to find one that fits. With seven practices each in implants, orthodontics, and Invisalign, Paramount gives you room to compare rather than settle for the only option in town.
What the 10 unrated practices mean for your search
Sixteen of Paramount’s 26 practices carry a rating, which leaves 10 without one. It is worth being clear about what that gap does and does not tell you. An unrated practice has not gathered enough patient feedback to place on the scale; the directory records no rating for it, which is different from a low rating. Some of these offices may be newer, some may have patients who never think to rate an office, and some may have a website URL on file that lets you learn more directly. Treat them as unknowns rather than as offices to skip. If one is close to home or takes your insurance, its profile page is the place to start, and a phone call can fill in what the rating field cannot. For most people, though, the practical move is to begin with the 16 rated offices, where you have real signal to compare, and to keep the unrated ones as a second tier to investigate only if the rated field does not produce a fit.
Looking just beyond Paramount
Paramount sits shoulder to shoulder with several other cities, so if a specific service or appointment window is not available here, the surrounding directory hubs are a short reach. Bellflower borders Paramount directly to the east, and Downey sits to the north. Lynwood and Norwalk each add their own set of rated practices nearby, and Lakewood rounds out the immediate cluster. Each hub carries its own ranked list and rating breakdown, so comparing across two or three neighboring cities widens your options without adding much distance.
For the full Paramount picture, including every rated and unrated practice, the Paramount directory hub is the master list. It holds all 26 practices, the specialty filters, and the profile links in one place, and it stays current as ratings and review counts change.
How to choose, and how the Dental.me Score works
With half of Paramount’s rated offices sitting at 4.8 or higher, most patients here can find a strongly rated practice quickly. A sensible approach is to start with the ranked table above, cross-check each candidate against the specialty you need, and then open two or three profiles to compare review counts. A 5.0 rating on 473 reviews and a 4.7 on 484 are both strong signals in different ways; the first shows near-universal satisfaction, the second shows durability across a very large sample. Once you have two or three finalists, a short call to confirm they take your insurance and have an opening is usually all that is left.
The Dental.me Score that orders these listings is earned, not sold. It weighs a practice’s rating, its review volume, and whether the office has been confirmed, among other signals, so a high placement reflects a real track record rather than a payment. Featured placement is the only thing an office can pay for, and it is labeled as such; it never changes the underlying score or a practice’s position in the organic rankings. When you shortlist from Paramount’s 16 rated practices, you are comparing offices on the same earned footing, which is exactly what makes the comparison worth trusting.
