In April, we mailed letters to 744 local dentists, notifying them of our online survey. Sixteen percent responded. The top three vote-getters in each category are listed below, with the top vote-getter of each category indicated by an asterisk. In some categories, more than three dentists are listed because of ties. In others, fewer are listed because dentists didn’t receive the minimum number of votes set by our staff.
