To find a good dentist in Winchester, Kentucky, start with the 23 dental practices Dental.me tracks in this Clark County seat, focus on the 14 that carry a Google rating averaging 4.21 stars, and weigh their review counts against the 1,199 reviews on file across town before you ever book a first visit.
How Winchester’s 23 dentists stack up
Winchester sits about 18 miles east of Lexington along Interstate 64. Dental.me currently tracks 23 practices inside the Winchester listings. Of those, 14 have a Google rating on file, while the remaining 9 are listed without a rating yet. That split matters: a rated practice gives you something concrete to compare, and an unrated listing means only that no Google rating is on file, not that the office is new or troubled.
The town-wide average across those 14 rated offices is 4.21 stars. Four ratings sit at 4.8 or above and four sit below 4.0, so treat 4.21 as the midpoint of a real spread rather than a description of any single practice. The low end is not only thin samples: two of the four ratings below 4.0 rest on 64 and 58 reviews, and the other two on 11 and 4. The 1,199 reviews on file are also spread unevenly. Half of the rated offices (7 of 14) have 10 reviews or fewer, so a 4.4 built on 7 reviews and a 4.8 built on 575 reviews are two very different kinds of evidence.
The band chart above is the fastest way to read the town. Four Winchester practices have 4.8 stars or higher, two land in the 4.5 to 4.79 range, four sit between 4.0 and 4.49, and four fall below 4.0. In practical terms, six of the fourteen rated offices clear the 4.5 mark. One of the four ratings at 4.8 or above, a 5.0, rests on two reviews.
The top-rated practices in Winchester
Below are the six Winchester practices ranked highest by Dental.me Score, which weighs the rating together with the review count and other signals. Use the rating and the review count together: the higher the review count, the more settled the rating tends to be. Bluegras Dental also holds a 5.0, on two reviews, and ranks seventh. Every practice name links to its full Dental.me profile, where you can see the address and contact details on file.
| Practice | Rating | Reviews | Profile |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ronald Snowden | 5.0 | 294 | View profile |
| Keally Dentistry, PLLC | 4.9 | 145 | View profile |
| Tammy Mccord | 4.8 | 575 | View profile |
| Walter N. Peavler, DMD, PLLC | 4.7 | 15 | View profile |
| Dr. Gilman Peterson III, DMD | 4.6 | 10 | View profile |
| Rex Mccrary | 4.4 | 7 | View profile |
Ronald Snowden holds a 5.0 across 294 reviews. Tammy Mccord has the most reviews in town, 575, with a 4.8. Keally Dentistry, PLLC follows at 4.9 across 145 reviews. Further down, Walter N. Peavler, Dr. Gilman Peterson III, and Rex Mccrary are rated on 15, 10 and 7 reviews, so read their ratings as small samples rather than settled figures.
The review-count chart shows how uneven the record is. Tammy Mccord and Ronald Snowden alone hold 869 of the 1,199 reviews (72%), and the six most-reviewed offices hold 1,151 (96%). Two of those six, Dr. John I. Gray (3.1, 64) and Oral Surgery & Implant Associates (3.7, 58), rate below 4.0 and are not in the Score table above. When a rating rests on hundreds of entries, one new review barely moves it; when it rests on 7 or 10, a single review can move the average by several tenths of a star. Keep that in mind as you compare.
Website coverage and reaching an office
Of the 23 Winchester practices Dental.me tracks, 11 have a website URL on file. That is just under half the directory, which is worth planning around. When a practice has a website listed, you can usually check services, insurance participation, and new-patient forms before you call. When there is no website URL on file, the profile still carries the phone number and address, so the office is reachable, you just have one fewer research channel and should expect to gather details by phone.
A practical approach: shortlist two or three offices from the top of the ratings table, open their Dental.me profiles, and note which ones have a website you can review tonight. For the ones that don’t, jot down two or three questions to ask when you call, such as whether they are taking new patients, which insurance plans they file, and how soon a first cleaning could be scheduled. Calling won’t answer everything, but it moves a shortlist forward quickly.
Specialty lists in Winchester
Dental.me’s Winchester specialty lists are short. The longest is dental implants, with 8 practices, followed by oral surgeons with 5. Teeth whitening, cosmetic and emergency have 4 each; periodontists, orthodontists and Invisalign 2 each; and pediatric 1. The endodontics, dentures and prosthodontics lists are empty. Cosmetic and whitening are the same four offices, and orthodontics and Invisalign are the same two.
If you are researching a specific procedure, start from the dedicated specialty pages: the Winchester dental implants directory and the Winchester oral surgeons directory each narrow the field to the offices tagged for that work. From there, cross-reference against the ratings table above so you can weigh each office by rating and review count as well as by treatment. For a broad view of every option in town, the full Winchester dentist directory lists all 23 practices in one place.
Looking just beyond Winchester
Nearby towns keep their own Dental.me directories you can browse the same way. Mount Sterling, east along I-64, lists 21 practices (13 rated), and Paris, the Bourbon County seat to the northwest, lists 10 (5 rated).
Lexington, west on I-64, lists 445 practices (165 rated). To the southwest, Richmond in Madison County lists 34 (22 rated). Comparing a Winchester shortlist against one of these directories is a useful check on rating and review count. Dental.me holds no availability data, so ask each office directly about openings.
How to choose your Winchester dentist
Pull the pieces together into a short routine. First, decide whether you need general care or a specialty like implants or oral surgery, and start from the matching directory. Second, filter to the rated practices and favor those clearing 4.5 stars, since six of Winchester’s fourteen rated offices sit there. Third, weigh the rating against its review count so a strong average backed by hundreds of entries carries more confidence than the same average backed by a handful.
Fourth, open the profiles of your top two or three and check which have a website URL on file for tonight’s research, then plan to call the rest with a tight list of questions. Fifth, if your leading choices are far from you, glance at Mount Sterling, Paris, Lexington, or Richmond before deciding. Paid placements are labeled as Featured and never change a practice’s Score.
