Living in paradise comes with plenty of perks, but finding the right dentist shouldn’t feel like navigating through the Hilo rainforest! Whether you’re near Rainbow Falls or down by Hilo Bay, DenScore is here to help you find the perfect dentist for your needs. With numerous dental practices to choose from in our Big Island community, we’ll help you make the best choice for your dental care journey.
We take the guesswork out of finding a great dentist by evaluating practitioners based on what really matters – their clinical qualifications, patient satisfaction, and scheduling convenience. Think of us as your dental matchmakers! We carefully review each dentist’s credentials and patient feedback to ensure you’re getting care from someone who meets our rigorous quality standards. Just like how the Merrie Monarch Festival showcases only the best hula performers, we showcase only the most qualified dental professionals.
Some of the dentists listed below may pay for a sponsored listing or agree to put a DenScore badge on their website in order to be recognized, but they are held to the same strict quality control guidelines as every other provider on this list. Whether you choose a dentist from this list or not, we always recommend doing your own research beforehand. For more information, please refer to our Terms of Service.

Absolutely! Choosing the right dental insurance can make quality dental care much more affordable. If you qualify for Medicaid, your children can receive free dental care, though adult coverage is more limited. For our kupuna (seniors), while traditional Medicare doesn’t cover dental work, many Medicare Advantage plans offer excellent dental benefits that can significantly reduce out-of-pocket costs for major procedures.
The best way to keep dental costs down is prevention – just like how our tsunami warning system helps prevent disaster! Maintain good oral hygiene, watch your sugar intake, and avoid tobacco products. Staying with an in-network dentist usually saves money. No insurance? Don’t worry! Many local dental offices offer membership plans that make care more affordable. Prices can vary significantly between practices, so we recommend calling a few offices to compare costs for specific procedures if you’re paying cash.
How do I know if I’m getting the right dental treatment?
Whether you have a tooth that needs to be fixed, a gum problem, or concerns about your smile, there are likely multiple ways to treat your condition.
