Also covered, in Nelson: 10 we could not score
These are registered companies in this trade, found the same way. We could not score them because they have too few public reviews to rank fairly, many are sole traders without a Google listing. They are shown alphabetically, not ranked, and their absence from the table above says nothing about their work.

Questions about this page
- Which dentist in Nelson does KiwiChecked rank highest?
- Piopio Dental has the highest LocalScore (59.4) of the 4 we scored, assessed August 2026. LocalScore combines public reviews, and time in business. Nobody pays to be scored.
- Can a business pay to rank higher on KiwiChecked?
- No. Sponsorship is labelled and sits outside the ranking, and payment has no effect on any score. Claiming a listing does not change a score either.
How we scored these dentists
We do not licence-check dentists. Dentists are registered with the Dental Council of New Zealand. Its public register is protected against automated access, so we cannot check it at scale and do not claim to have. LocalScore for this category combines review quality and volume, how recent those reviews are, and how long the business has been registered with the Companies Office. Full weightings are on our methodology page.
