Salina sits in central Kansas, at the crossroads of I-70 and I-135. Dental.me has 39 dental practices on file in the city, 21 of them with a Google rating. Lindsborg, Ellsworth and Minneapolis are within a drive, but each has three practices or fewer on file.
Across the 21 rated Salina practices, the average Google rating is 4.63, built on 3,518 reviews. Those reviews are not spread evenly. New Horizons Dental Care alone carries 1,116 of them and Salina Dental Arts LLC 621, so two offices hold 49% of the city’s reviews, while the median rated practice has 36. A large review count tells you many people left a rating; it does not tell you why.
The numbers behind Salina’s dental market
Two of those figures deserve a second look. First, 17 of the 39 practices have a website on file, fewer than half, and all 17 are rated offices; an office with a website is easier to check before you call. Second, 21 of the 39 practices have a Google rating, so 18 have none on file. Our full Salina dentist directory shows which offices are which.
Where the ratings actually fall
An average of 4.63 hides the spread. Here is how Salina’s 21 rated practices distribute across rating bands. Two sit below 4.0, one on 2 reviews and the other on 11.
Fourteen of the 21 rated practices (two-thirds) sit at 4.8 or above, three fall between 4.5 and 4.79, and two between 4.0 and 4.49. The top band includes six 5.0 ratings, and four of those rest on 12 reviews or fewer, so check the count beside every rating. To see how we turn ratings and review counts into a Score, see how we rank dentists.
Eighteen of the 39 practices have no rating on file, so a rating cannot help you compare them. That does not mean they are weaker, only that Dental.me has no rating to show; if one of them is closest to you, call and ask the questions a rating cannot answer.
Specialty listings in Salina
Dental implants are the longest specialty list in Salina: 10 practices are listed for them, ahead of cosmetic dentistry, teeth whitening and periodontal care at 7 each. These are listing tags, so a general office can carry several; they are not counts of specialists. Not on the chart: emergency dentistry and oral surgery (4 each), dentures (2) and prosthodontics (0). A listing in a category does not tell you about wait times or whether an office is taking new patients.
Implant treatment has surgical and restorative stages. Ask each listed office which stages it does itself and which it refers out.
Salina has practices listed under endodontists (5) and periodontists (7), plus pediatric dentists (5) and orthodontists (5); the orthodontics and Invisalign lists are the same five practices. If you are weighing an implant, start with the Salina implant listings, and ask each office for a written, itemised estimate (our national guide to dental costs publishes no prices, but it lists what a quote depends on).
The practices with the most Google reviews
These are the six Salina offices with the most Google reviews, in order of review count. Together they hold 3,019 of the city’s 3,518 reviews (86%).
- New Horizons Dental Care — 4.8 stars across 1,116 reviews, the most in Salina; the next-largest count is 621. It is fifth by Dental.me Score.
- Salina Dental Arts LLC — 4.8 stars over 621 reviews, the second-largest count in the city; sixth by Score.
- McAnally Family Dental — 4.9 stars across 505 reviews; first by Dental.me Score.
- Discover Dental Center — 4.9 stars over 351 reviews.
- Fine Art of Family Dentistry, PA — 5.0 across 271 reviews, the highest rating in this group.
- Dental Care of Salina — 4.9 stars over 155 reviews.
A 5.0 across 30 reviews and a 4.8 across 1,100 reviews are different kinds of evidence: the larger count is less likely to move with a few new reviews. Neither tells you about clinical quality, since Google ratings are third-party data. You can compare all of these side by side on the Salina practice directory.
A five-minute method for choosing here
Run the filters in that order. Start with the 4.8-and-up band (14 practices; nine of them rest on 50 reviews or more), set aside ratings that rest on only a few reviews, then confirm the office lists the procedure you need — a general dentist and an implant provider are not interchangeable. Only then call about insurance and scheduling. Dental.me holds no after-hours or same-day data, so call to ask whether an office can see you.
If Salina is a drive, check the neighbors
Several nearby towns have practices on file, though most lists are short: Lindsborg (1 practice), Abilene (6), McPherson (11), Minneapolis (3), Lincoln (2) and Ellsworth (2). Then come back to the Salina directory to compare.
