Inside Sunrise, Dental.me tracks 51 dental practices, and 27 carry a Google rating. The spread behind those ratings is wide: 11 rated practices have 100 or more reviews, and 12 have fewer than 20. The city-wide average is 4.15 stars, a plain average of the 27 ratings. It sits that low mainly because of the seven practices rated below 4.0, which include a 1.0 and a 1.9; the two middle bands hold 10 practices, more than the 7 below 4.0. So look at each practice rather than at the city average.
Review counts are concentrated. Across all 27 rated offices there are 4,130 Google reviews, and the six most-reviewed practices hold 2,998 of them, about 73%. The six highly rated practices listed below hold 2,507, about 61%. Most of the other rated practices have far fewer reviews, so their ratings rest on smaller samples.
Twenty of the 51 listed practices have a website on file, about 39%. Of the 24 unrated practices, 23 have neither a rating nor a website. Posted opening hours are stored for 21 of the 51 and a phone number for all 51. A missing website means you will need a phone call for insurance and billing questions; it says nothing about the care itself. Dental.me does not record which insurance an office accepts.
Why the average is misleading — and what the distribution actually shows
A single average hides how the ratings are spread. Ten of Sunrise’s 27 rated practices sit at 4.8 stars or higher, three land in the 4.5–4.79 band, seven in the 4.0–4.49 band, and seven below 4.0. That means roughly one in four rated offices in Sunrise carries a sub-4.0 rating. All seven rest on 33 or fewer reviews, and five of them on 3 or fewer, so a few new reviews could move them a long way. Nearby, the share is smaller in Weston (1 of 30 rated practices below 4.0), Davie (1 of 30) and Pembroke Pines (4 of 79), and larger in Lauderhill (6 of 18).
The top six by Dental.me Score
These six lead the Sunrise list by the Dental.me Score, 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; all six are on our Sunrise dentist directory. Paid placements are clearly labeled as Featured and never change the organic order. They are not simply the six most-reviewed practices: by review count, West Sunrise Dentistry (4.4, 465 reviews) ties for third in Sunrise, Weston Family Dental Center (4.7, 416) is sixth and Allure Dental of Plantation (4.4, 203) is eighth. Steven J. Kusnick, DDS, PA (4.9, 130 reviews) and Broward Family Dental Care (4.8, 104) both hold more reviews than the sixth office below and rank seventh and eighth by Score.
- Robert A. Cherry, DDS, FAGD — 5.0 across 711 reviews, the most-reviewed office in Sunrise.
- A Dental Art — 4.9 stars over 523 reviews, the second-largest review count in the city.
- Welleby Dental Associates — 4.8 stars across 465 reviews, tied with West Sunrise Dentistry for the third-largest count.
- Frank Alarcon, PA — 5.0 over 418 reviews.
- Caring Dental Services — 4.9 stars across 294 reviews.
- Charles D. McNutt, DDS — 5.0 across 96 reviews, a smaller sample than the other five and than the two offices ranked just behind it.
Five of these six sit at 4.9 or 5.0, and Welleby at 4.8. Sunrise has five 5.0 ratings in all; two of them rest on 6 and 3 reviews. You can compare any other office against this group on the full Sunrise listings.
A rating does not by itself show clinical quality, and Dental.me holds no data on languages spoken, appointment availability or the feel of a visit. Compare these six on what you can check: whether each is listed for the service you need, distance, and whether it takes your insurance.
Specialty listings by the count
Here is how many Sunrise practices each specialty page lists. The largest lists are dental implants (12 practices) and cosmetic dentistry and teeth whitening (10 each), followed by oral surgeons and periodontists (7 each). Pediatric dentistry, orthodontics, Invisalign and endodontics each list five offices, emergency dentistry four, dentures two, and no prosthodontist is listed. A listing tells you an office offers the service, not how much of that work it does, so for the shorter lists you have fewer offices to compare. A list entry reflects the services a practice lists, not a specialist credential, so ask an office about its training.
You can browse each of these directly: implant dentists in Sunrise, cosmetic dentists, teeth whitening, oral surgeons, periodontists, pediatric dentists, orthodontists, endodontists and emergency dentists. Four Sunrise practices are listed for emergency dentistry. Dental.me holds no availability data, so call to ask how soon an office can see you.
How to choose a dentist in Sunrise
Because the ratings here are spread so widely, a short filter helps. Use this before you book anything.
The single most useful habit is to weigh review depth against the star rating. Sunrise has 5.0 ratings built on only a handful of reviews, and a 5.0 over 96 reviews (as with Charles D. McNutt) rests on a much smaller sample than a 5.0 over 711 (as with Robert A. Cherry). We explain how these ratings are compiled on our how-we-rank methodology page; every rating on the Sunrise directory is the practice’s Google rating.
Looking just beyond the city line
If you live or work closer to a neighboring city, the surrounding directories widen your options. Dental.me lists 117 practices in Plantation, 80 in Davie, 43 in Tamarac, 24 in Lauderhill and 8 in Lauderdale Lakes, and there is a separate Fort Lauderdale–Davie listing. Each city page shows the same rating and review-count data you see here. Dental.me does not measure drive times, so check each address against your route.
The bottom line for Sunrise: ten practices are rated 4.8 or higher, ten sit in the middle bands, and seven are rated below 4.0 on small samples. Weigh each rating against its review count, confirm the office is listed for your specialty, and ask about cost up front. Start your search on the Sunrise dentist directory, and before you book, 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.
Frequently asked questions
Who is the highest-rated dentist in Sunrise, FL?
By Google rating and review count, Robert A. Cherry, DDS, FAGD holds a 5.0 rating across 711 reviews, the top score and the largest review count in the city. A Dental Art (4.9, 523 reviews) and Frank Alarcon, PA (5.0, 418 reviews) follow. A rating is not a measure of clinical quality. You can compare all of them on the Sunrise directory.
Why is Sunrise's average dental rating only 4.15 stars?
Of 27 rated practices, 10 are rated 4.8 or higher, 10 sit between 4.0 and 4.79, and 7 are below 4.0, about one in four. The seven include a 1.0 and a 1.9, and a plain average is pulled down by a few very low ratings. All seven rest on 33 or fewer reviews, so weigh each rating against its review count.
How many dentists are there in Sunrise, and how many are actually reviewed?
Sunrise lists 51 dental practices, and 27 carry a Google rating. Together those rated offices hold 4,130 reviews, and the six most-reviewed practices hold 2,998 of them, about 73%. Twelve rated practices have fewer than 20 reviews.
Can I get dental implants or cosmetic work done in Sunrise?
Yes. These are the largest specialty listings in Sunrise. Twelve practices are listed for dental implants, and ten each for cosmetic dentistry and teeth whitening. Oral surgeons and periodontists list seven offices each. Browse the implant, cosmetic, and whitening pages on the Sunrise directory to compare by rating and review count.
Is it hard to find a pediatric dentist or orthodontist in Sunrise?
The lists are shorter. Pediatric dentistry, orthodontics, Invisalign, and endodontics each list five offices in Sunrise, compared with twelve for implants. If you need braces or a children’s dentist, you have fewer local offices to compare, and neighboring Plantation (117 practices) and Davie (80) widen the list.
How should I choose a dentist in Sunrise?
Use a simple filter: look for a 4.8-plus rating built on a real volume of reviews, confirm the office is listed for your specific treatment, and get any cost estimate in writing before you start. Ten offices are rated 4.8 or higher, and seven of them have 100 or more reviews.
