    How this list was ranked

    We started with the 250 active dental implant practices in our directory within the Chicago metro area, defined by distance from the metro's principal city. We removed 38 locations that belong to national or regional dental service organizations or chain brands, leaving 212 independent practices.

    Of those, 197 had a public Google rating with at least 20 reviews. Each was scored on its Google rating weighted by review volume, so a 5.0 across hundreds of reviews ranks above a 5.0 across a few dozen. The average rating among eligible practices here is 4.83.

    Ratings and review counts are as of October 2026. The list is published once a year and is not affected by paid listings. Practices cannot pay to be included.

    Questions about this list

    How were the Top 10 practices in Chicago chosen?
    We started with every active dental implant practice within the Chicago metro area in our directory, removed chains and dental service organizations, and kept practices with a Google rating and at least 20 Google reviews. Each practice was scored on its rating weighted by review volume, so a 5.0 across 900 reviews ranks above a 5.0 across 40. The 10 highest scores make the list, which is shown in alphabetical order.
    What counts as an independent practice?
    A practice that is not part of a national or regional dental service organization (DSO) or a multi-market chain brand. Single-location practices and locally owned groups qualify. Chains are excluded because this award is meant to recognize independently owned implant practices.
    Can a practice pay to be on this list?
    No. Placement is based only on public Google ratings and review counts. Practices cannot pay to be included, and paid directory listings do not affect the ranking.
    How often is the list updated?
    Once a year. This is the 2026 list. Each year's list is ranked from the data available at the time it is published and stays as a record of that year.
