The top-rated dentists in Superior right now
Superior sits at the western tip of Lake Superior in Douglas County, sharing the harbor with Duluth, Minnesota across the St. Louis River bay. Of the 14 practices with a public rating, 13 sit at 4.8 or higher. The table below lists the six rated practices with the most reviews, ordered by rating and then by review count.
| Practice | Rating | Reviews | Profile |
|---|---|---|---|
| Port City Dental – Superior | 5.0 | 150 | View profile |
| Oral and Maxillofacial Surgical Associates PA | 4.9 | 578 | View profile |
| Lifetime Dental | 4.9 | 253 | View profile |
| Superior Family Dentistry | 4.9 | 245 | View profile |
| H. Clark | 4.9 | 177 | View profile |
| Conkright Dental, LLC | 4.8 | 238 | View profile |
Start at the top: Port City Dental – Superior holds a 5.0 across 150 reviews, the largest review count behind any of the city’s seven 5.0 ratings. The other six 5.0s rest on 90 reviews or fewer, and four of them on 18 or fewer. Directly below it in the table, four practices tie at 4.9. Oral and Maxillofacial Surgical Associates PA carries the largest review count at 578; Lifetime Dental follows with 253 and Superior Family Dentistry with 245; H. Clark rounds out the 4.9 group with 177. Conkright Dental, LLC sits at 4.8 across 238 reviews, more than two of the higher-rated offices in the table. The full roster of every Superior practice lives on the Superior dental directory hub.
Reading Superior’s ratings distribution
Ratings in Superior cluster tightly at the top of the scale. Thirteen of the fourteen rated practices land in the 4.8-and-up band, and exactly one falls in the 4.5-to-4.79 range. No rated practice sits below 4.5, and there are no ratings recorded in the 4.0-to-4.49 band at all. That compression is worth understanding before you shop: a 4.8 here is close to the local norm, so what separates two strong Superior offices is usually the review count rather than the rating alone.
Practically, screening on rating alone will not narrow the field much in Superior — almost every rated office clears 4.8. The useful signal is how many reviews stand behind that rating: five of the 13 top-band ratings rest on 18 reviews or fewer, while the six in the table each rest on 150 or more. An office holding 4.9 over hundreds of reviews has a far larger sample behind it than one holding the same score over a couple of dozen.
Websites and getting in the door
Sixteen of Superior’s 27 listed practices have a website URL on file; the other eleven do not, which simply means the directory has no site link recorded for them. For those eleven, a phone call is the most reliable way to check hours and which insurance they take. When an office does list a site, its profile page links straight out to it, so you can often read its service list before you pick up the phone.
Roughly six in ten Superior offices give you that head start online, so a practical approach is to review the sixteen web-linked profiles first, then keep two or three of the no-URL practices as backups to call if the first round does not turn up an opening that fits your schedule.
Review volume across the directory
Superior’s practices have gathered 1,827 public reviews between them, and that total is concentrated. Oral and Maxillofacial Surgical Associates PA alone accounts for 578 of them, nearly a third, and the six most-reviewed practices together hold 1,641 (90%). The chart below shows how those six stack up against one another.
Below the surgical office, the next four by review count — Lifetime Dental, Superior Family Dentistry, Conkright Dental, and H. Clark — each carry between 177 and 253 reviews. Port City Dental’s 5.0 rests on 150 reviews, the largest sample behind any 5.0 in town. Weighted by review count, the 14 rated practices average 4.90. One new 1-star review would leave Oral and Maxillofacial Surgical Associates PA’s 4.9 on 578 at 4.9, and would take Mikel Sleep Center’s 5.0 on two reviews to 3.7.
Every listing has a phone number on file, and the 27 listings give 23 distinct numbers; several records share a phone or an address. Lifetime Dental (4.9 on 253) and Lifetime Dental: Dr. Brent Johnson (5.0 on 18) give the same phone and the same 1507 Tower Ave #202 address. Superior Family Dentistry (4.9 on 245), Dr. Robert A. Bukowski, DDS (5.0 on 14) and an unrated SUPERIOR FAMILY DENTISTRY, SC record all give 1301 Tower Ave. Carlson Orthodontics (5.0 on 90) and an unrated OP ORTHODONTICS OF MINNESOTA PLLC record give 3701 Tower Ave, and Arrowhead Orthodontics (4.7 on 10) gives the same 3712 Tower Ave E address as two unrated records. Check the profile before you treat two names as two offices.
What the specialty lists show
Beyond routine cleanings, Superior’s directory tags practices by the treatments they list. Seven practices list cosmetic dentistry and the same seven list teeth whitening; six list dental implants. The other lists are short: 3 practices each on the periodontics, orthodontics, Invisalign, emergency and oral surgery lists (the orthodontics and Invisalign lists are the same three offices), and 2 on the pediatric list. The endodontics, dentures and prosthodontics lists are empty, so for a root canal or dentures you may need to look across the bay in Duluth, which lists 69 practices (42 rated), with 4 on its endodontist list and 10 on its denture list. A listing is not a specialist credential, so ask about the specific procedure when you call.
You can browse each category directly: cosmetic dentists in Superior, teeth-whitening providers in Superior, and dental-implant providers in Superior. A practice can appear on more than one of these lists, so ask which work it does itself.
Why Superior’s small directory works in your favor
Twenty-seven practices is a manageable number. You can realistically read every rated profile in Superior in a single sitting rather than leaning on filters. The city runs from Billings Park in the west to the East End, between the St. Louis River bay, the Nemadji River and the Lake Superior shoreline, so check the drive from your part of town. The main decision left to you is matching an office’s services and schedule to your own.
It also means the whole market is legible. Fourteen of the twenty-seven practices carry a public rating; the remaining thirteen have no Google rating on file, which says nothing either way about their care. If your first two calls do not land an appointment, the rated list still has other offices at 4.8 or better — thirteen of the fourteen — though five of those thirteen ratings rest on 18 reviews or fewer.
Making your first appointment in Superior
Once you have narrowed the list, a few concrete steps turn a shortlist into a booked visit. First, confirm the practice takes your insurance or offers a plan you can work with — a well-rated office can still turn out to be the wrong fit. Second, ask whether they can see a new patient, and how far out the next opening is. Third, if anyone in your household is a child, verify the office sees children: only two Superior practices are on the pediatric list. Finally, note whether the practice has a website URL on file; for the sixteen that do, read the site before you call.
Superior’s neighbors and the wider northwest Wisconsin directory
Superior sits in the far northwest corner of Wisconsin, where US Highway 2 and US Highway 53 meet before crossing into Minnesota. The largest nearby list is across the bay in Duluth, with 69 practices (42 rated). On the Wisconsin side the other directory pages are small and farther away: Lake Nebagamon, southeast along Highway 2, lists 1 practice; Hayward, to the south in Sawyer County, lists 15 (7 rated); and Washburn, on Chequamegon Bay, lists 2 (1 rated).
A short checklist for choosing your dentist in Superior
With ratings this tightly bunched, the decision usually comes down to a few practical filters. Work through these before you book:
- Match the rating to the review count. A 4.9 across 578 reviews and a 5.0 across 150 tell different stories — both rate highly, but one has far more feedback behind it.
- Confirm the essentials by phone for the eleven offices with no website URL on file. Ask about new-patient openings, hours, and accepted insurance.
- Start from the specialty page if you need implants, cosmetic work, or whitening, so you only see the practices that list that treatment.
- Check location against your side of the harbor. Superior’s neighborhoods stretch from Billings Park to the East End, so factor in the drive from your part of town.
- Use the Dental.me Score as a starting sort, not the final word. It weighs a practice’s rating, its review volume, and whether office details are confirmed; it is earned by the practice, never purchased. The Superior hub runs over two pages, and its first cards are marked Featured and sit outside Score order. When this guide was checked they were Ellen Bursch (5.0 on 8; 12th of the 14 rated by Score), Arrowhead Orthodontics (4.7 on 10; 13th), Dr. Robert A. Bukowski, DDS (5.0 on 14; 10th) and GERALD T MIKEL FAMILY DENTISTRY SC (4.8 on 17; 11th). Featured marks a placement, not a Score result.
Once you have two or three names, their profile pages on the Superior directory hub carry the details you need to make the call.
