Top Dentists 2022

That’s the question Professional Research Services has asked thousands of dentists in order to determine who should be on the Top Dentists list.

Dentists and specialists were asked to take into consideration years of experience, continuing education, manner with patients, use of new techniques and technologies and physical results. The dentists’ names are checked against state dental boards for disciplinary actions to make sure they have an active license and are in good standing with the board.

Here are the top dental professionals in the seven specialties surveyed: endodontics, general dentistry, oral and maxillofacial surgery, orthodontics, pediatric dentistry, periodontics and prosthodontics.

“If you had a patient in need of a dentist, which dentist would you refer them to?”
