Dentists in Richfield, MN: Local Guide

Finding a good dentist in Richfield starts with the numbers: Dental.me tracks 35 practices across the city, 18 of them carrying enough patient feedback to earn a rating, and those rated offices average a remarkable 4.82 stars. Start with the top-rated names in the table below, then match a practice to the specialty you need.

Richfield is a compact, older suburb tucked between Minneapolis to the north and the airport and Mall of America to the south, and its dental scene reflects that: a manageable list of practices, most of them long-established, clustered along Nicollet, Lyndale, and Portland Avenues. Because the field is small enough to review office by office, you can realistically shortlist the right practice in an afternoon rather than wading through hundreds of listings the way you would in a larger metro.

The top-rated dental practices in Richfield

The table below ranks Richfield’s leading practices by their Dental.me rating, with ties broken by the number of reviews behind that rating. A five-star office with a few hundred reviews has earned that score across a deep base of feedback, so read the two columns together rather than the rating alone.

A few things stand out. 2010 Dentistry, PA holds a clean 5.0 across 331 reviews, the only perfect score on the list and no small feat at that volume. Joann C Boraas, DDS, PA carries 610 reviews, a 4.9 built over years of general-practice visits. And the list is unusually specialized for a suburb this size: an orthodontic group, a pediatric-only office, and a periodontics specialty center all rank in the top six, so Richfield residents can often stay in-city for care that elsewhere means a drive.

What the ratings tell you about Richfield

Of the 18 rated practices in Richfield, the distribution is heavily weighted toward the top. Twelve offices sit at 4.8 stars or higher, five land in the 4.5-to-4.79 range, a single practice falls between 4.0 and 4.49, and none drop below 4.0. In practical terms, this is a city where a randomly chosen rated office is very likely to be a strong one.

That shape matters when you compare offices. When most of the field clears 4.8, the rating alone stops separating the very best from the merely good, and review volume becomes the tiebreaker. That is why the deeper histories, such as Boraas at 610 reviews and Richfield Orthodontic Associates at 501, deserve extra weight: a 4.9 sustained across hundreds of reviews is a sturdier signal than the same score across a handful.

Review volume: how much feedback stands behind Richfield’s dentists

Across its rated practices, Richfield’s offices carry 4,911 reviews in total. That is a substantial body of feedback for a city of Richfield’s size, and it is concentrated: the six practices in the table above alone account for the large majority of it. When you read those reviews, look for the specifics that a rating cannot capture, such as how an office handles a nervous patient, whether they run on time, and how billing questions get answered.

The takeaway is not simply “more reviews are better.” A newer or smaller office such as MN Dentalcare at 189 reviews can be an excellent choice; the number just tells you how settled the picture is. For a routine cleaning, any of the top-rated offices will serve you well. For a bigger decision, such as implants or full-mouth work, lean toward the practices whose scores are backed by the deepest histories.

Website coverage in Richfield

Of the 35 practices Dental.me tracks in Richfield, 17 have a website URL on file. That is roughly half the field, which is typical for a suburb of this size. A missing website URL is not a mark against an office; it simply means you may need to call to confirm hours, new-patient availability, or which insurance plans they take.

Whether or not an office has a website, its Richfield practice profile on Dental.me gathers the rating and review data in one place, so you can size up an office before you ever pick up the phone.

Specialties you can find in Richfield

For a small suburb, Richfield is well covered on specialty care. The city has six practices offering cosmetic dentistry, six offering periodontal care, and six providing teeth whitening, plus five orthodontic providers. That breadth is why families here rarely need to leave the city for anything beyond the most complex surgical cases.

If you are weighing veneers, bonding, or a smile makeover, browse the city’s cosmetic dentists in Richfield. For gum health, deep cleanings, or implant groundwork, the Richfield periodontists list is a good starting point, and the top-ranked Metro Dentalcare Specialty Center Richfield – Periodontics is one of them. Families with kids in braces should compare the orthodontists in Richfield, where Richfield Orthodontic Associates leads on reviews.

Care for kids, and for the whole family

One of Richfield’s genuine strengths is dedicated pediatric care. Tailwind Pediatric Dentistry holds a 4.9 across 485 reviews, a children’s-only office that lets parents book anxious first visits with a team built for exactly that. Pair a pediatric office for the kids with a strong general practice such as 2010 Dentistry or Joann C Boraas, DDS for the adults, and a Richfield household can cover almost everyone within a few blocks.

Looking just beyond Richfield

Richfield sits shoulder to shoulder with several larger dental markets, and it is worth knowing what is a short drive away if your first-choice office is not taking new patients. To the west, dentists in Edina add a deep bench of cosmetic and general practices; to the south, Bloomington dentists cover the stretch toward the airport and Mall of America; and to the north, the full range of Minneapolis dentists is only minutes up Nicollet or Lyndale. For most Richfield residents, though, the in-city list is more than deep enough to start.

How to choose your Richfield dentist

Put the pieces together like this. Begin with the ranked table and pick two or three offices that fit your need, whether that is a general checkup, braces, or gum care. Read past the rating into the review text for the practical details that matter to you. If an office has no website URL on file, call to confirm hours, new-patient status, and your insurance. Then compare your shortlist on the Richfield city hub, where every practice’s rating and review data lives side by side. With 18 rated offices averaging 4.82 stars and not one falling below 4.0, Richfield gives you a genuinely strong field to choose from.
