Redmond runs on precision. This is the town where Microsoft writes the code that half the planet types on, where Nintendo of America ships the games, and where a commute is measured against the SR-520 bridge, not miles. That engineering-first culture shows up in an unexpected place: the dental market. Of the 116 practices we track inside the Redmond city limits, 72 maintain a website — a 62% digital-presence rate.
But the number that actually matters to you is quieter. Among the 74 practices with enough Google reviews to rate, a staggering 55 — three out of every four — sit at 4.8 stars or higher. Redmond does not have a “find a highly rated office” problem. It has a “choose between 55 highly rated ones” problem. This guide is built for that specific, enviable challenge.
The shape of a top-heavy market
Across those 74 rated practices, people in Redmond have written 12,276 reviews, and the city’s average rating lands at 4.64. Read those two figures together and the picture sharpens: this is a market where ratings cluster high. A practice cannot coast in a town this review-literate. Here is the market in four numbers.
There is real depth behind that 4.64. Spread 12,276 reviews across 74 rated practices and you get an average of roughly 166 reviews per office — a sample size large enough that a Redmond rating actually means something. In smaller or less connected markets, a “5.0” often rests on a dozen reviews. Here, the top names are backed by hundreds of reviews each, which is the single biggest reason you can trust the numbers on this page.
What the ratings reveal is a field skewed hard toward excellence. The 55 practices in the top tier are not a rounding accident — they represent the dominant experience a Redmond patient can expect. There is a small tail of underperformers (7 practices sitting below 4.0), which is exactly why a directory that separates rated from unrated matters. When 42 of the 116 practices carry too few reviews to judge, “no rating yet” is information, not a gap: Dental.me does not record why, and a thin review count is a reason to ask more questions, not to rule them out.
Start with the seven that earned it
We do not rank practices by who pays us. The providers below rose to the top of Redmond on review volume and rating combined — the two signals that are hardest to accumulate. Every name links to its full profile with hours, services, and the raw review history.
- Ronald H. Ellingsen, PLLC — a perfect 5.0 across 985 reviews, the single most-reviewed five-star general practice in the city. When a dentist holds a flawless average at that volume, it stops being luck.
- Roos Orthodontics — 4.9 stars over 924 reviews, an orthodontic name to check for braces and aligners.
- Redmond Family Smiles — 4.9 across 651 reviews, built around households that want one chair for every age.
- Town Center Dentistry — 4.9 over 469 reviews, walkable from the Redmond Town Center core.
- Dkeidek, Fernyhough, Gile, Hagel, Nov & Quickstad PLLC — 4.9 across 448 reviews, a deep review base.
- Harleen Subherwal — 4.9 over 398 reviews, rounding out the top six.
Notice something: the gap between first and sixth is a tenth of a star. The simple move is to pick the best-rated name and move on. In Redmond, rating alone will not decide it for you — which is why the next section matters.
Let the specialty do the choosing
When the whole field is highly rated, the right question flips from “who is good?” to “who does the thing I need the most?” Redmond’s specialty mix leans elective. Cosmetic and whitening services dominate; full-denture practices are scarce.
The read-through is clear. If you want a brighter smile, you have depth: 36 practices offer teeth whitening and 35 handle cosmetic dentistry — the two largest categories in town. Families are well covered with 20 pediatric options. Considering tooth replacement? 25 practices place dental implants. It is also worth knowing that 23 practices advertise emergency dental care.
The specialist bench is deeper than the headline categories suggest, too. Redmond carries 17 periodontists for gum disease and implant foundations, and 10 endodontists for root canals and complex tooth-saving work — so referral specialties have local listings to compare before you look toward Seattle. Orthodontics is equally well served: 18 practices handle traditional braces and the same 18 offer Invisalign, so aligner treatment is easy to find close to home. The one category to plan around is dentures, offered at just five practices — a case where checking the Eastside neighbors below can widen your options.
How to actually choose — a Redmond playbook
Because the rating floor is so high here, your decision framework should be different from a national one. Skip the “avoid the low-rated ones” filtering that other cities need and spend your energy on fit. Here is the sequence that works in a top-heavy market.
1. Lead with the specialty, not the star rating. With 55 practices above 4.8, the rating is table stakes. Start from the treatment you actually need and use the category pages above to shortlist three names.
2. Weight review volume over review average. A 4.9 across 900 reviews is a far stronger signal than a 5.0 across 30. In Redmond, several practices clear 400+ reviews, so you can afford to demand a large sample.
3. Confirm the digital basics. 62% of practices here have a website on file — if a practice you like is in the 38% that does not, expect to start with a phone call and plan around it.
4. Check the neighbors before you commit. The Eastside is tightly knit, and the best fit may be one bridge over. See our companion hubs for Kirkland, Bellevue, Sammamish, Woodinville, Bothell, and Duvall — all within a reasonable Redmond commute.
5. Understand what you will pay. Ratings do not tell you cost. Before you book, read our national guide to what a dental quote depends on so you know what to ask about the estimate you get in the chair.
