Welcome to a different kind of dentistry, where we prioritize our patients’ comfort and confidence. In our experience, a soothing environment helps our patients feel right at home. So, our lobby is designed with comfortable leather furniture and a stocked beverage counter with water, coffee, and tea.

Everything we do at Dakota Dental is with you in mind. While healthy teeth are our bottom line, we deliver top-notch dental service while keeping you at ease. At Dakota Dental we want each patient to know they are part of our family. Our goal is that every person leaves with a smile that is not only healthy, but one which they can be proud of.
