Grove Health Dental

After starting his career in the community clinic setting, he founded Grove Health Dental in 2007 with the mission of providing high quality comprehensive dentistry for the entire family in a setting that is both genuine and personal. Dr. Francis has further pursued his education in several areas of dentistry, including clear aligner orthodontics (SureSmile), placement and restoration of dental implants, dental sleep medicine including sleep apnea appliances and his favorite of all, cosmetic dentistry, which includes complete smile makeovers. He is a member of DOCS sedation, allowing him to keep up on the latest and safest methods of delivering oral conscious sedation for most of the services we provide.  He has a strong interest in functional health and wellness.  His vision is to further incorporate functional health and medicine into the field of dentistry.

​

"The greatest thing about being a dentist is being able to build relationships and have a positive impact on the health and confidence of my patients.  I also feel lucky to be able to provide this for the people in my own community on a daily basis.”

He and his wife, Michelle, live in Maple Grove with their three children, Avery, Drew and Brynn. ​​​​​​​​​​
