User Agreement

Welcome to DentistNearMeReviews.com (“DentistNearMeReviews.com,” “we,” or “us”). We provide a searchable directory and educational resource to help patients find licensed dentists. We compile publicly available information and patient‑submitted reviews to generate searchable listings of licensed dentists. Our methodology for listings and review display is described on our FAQs page. Paid listings do not and cannot influence reviews or ratings.


By accessing and using our website, you agree to comply with this User Agreement (“User Agreement”). We may modify this Agreement from time to time. Your continued use of our site after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the updated Agreement.

 

No Recommendations or Dental/Medical Advice

We are not a referral service and do not recommend or endorse any particular dental provider. We provide selected information to help you research dentists. Nothing on this site is dental or medical advice. Every dentist listed on DentistNearMeReviews.com is manually reviewed prior to publication, but patients should always perform their own due diligence and consult a licensed professional for clinical advice.

How Reviews Work (Summary)

  • Once approved, an alert is sent to the practice.

  • Dentists cannot buy, edit, reorder, or remove reviews. We may remove reviews that violate our guidelines (e.g., hate speech, privacy violations, conflicts of interest).

  • Paid listings do not influence reviews or ratings in any way.
