Best dentists in San Antonio, TX ranked by Google reviews.

Common questions

About the San Antonio dentist leaderboard.

• How are dentists in San Antonio ranked on this leaderboard?

  We pull the top dentists for San Antonio from Google Places using a "top dentists in San Antonio" text search biased to the city centroid, keep the top 10 results, then sort by Google star rating (descending) with a tie-break of total review count (descending). Entries without a numeric rating sort last. The full dataset is also published as open data under CC-BY-4.0 at biglove.to/hyperlocal-summary.json.

• How often is this leaderboard updated?

  We refresh the underlying Google Places data quarterly. Significant changes in a business's review count or average rating usually appear here within roughly three months. For real-time data, the public Google Maps listing of each business is always the canonical source — the leaderboard is a snapshot, not a live feed.

• What can my dentist do to climb the San Antonio leaderboard?

  Ask every customer for a Google review, not just the obvious fans. Make the link short enough to print on a receipt or say out loud — a branded biglove.to short link works for that. Never ask for "5 stars first" — that's review gating, prohibited by Google's review policy (Help article 9273900) and the FTC Consumer Reviews Rule (16 CFR Part 465, max penalty $53,088). Reply publicly to every review within 48 hours. Track which ask path actually converts. The five-step playbook on this page goes deeper.

• Why isn't a particular dentist I expected on this list?

  This list shows only the top 10 results Google Places returned for "top dentists in San Antonio" at the time of the scrape. Google's relevance ranking weighs review count, average rating, distance from the city centroid, and a number of private signals — so a well-loved spot with fewer reviews can rank lower than a high-volume one nearby. If a business you'd expect is missing, it usually means it lives in a different Google category, has fewer reviews than the visible top 10, or sits outside Google's city-centroid bias for San Antonio.

• Does this include reviews from Trustpilot, Yelp, or Facebook?

  No. The star rating and review count shown here come exclusively from Google reviews — the primary "find a place" signal in USA. BigLove supports branded short links for Google Reviews and Trustpilot, but this particular leaderboard is Google-only because Google has by far the highest local-business review volume across our target markets (US, UK, Canada, Australia, New Zealand).
