Welcome to the Grove Health Dental family!

"Making you smile makes us smile."

Our practice has grown roots in the town of Maple Grove for over twelve years, and the midsized community that we call home closely resembles our business. It isn't too big to feel impersonal, but it's large enough to provide our patients with everything they may need. We here at Grove Health Dental strive to provide our patients with comprehensive dental services that are administered by supportive, non-judgemental staff. Our Team is sincerely happiest when they see you smile. Our growth in recent years has allowed us to branch out, increasing our office space to accommodate this expansion. We treat each of our patients like a member of our family, making their care, comfort, and financial considerations our top priorities. So what has been one of the primary keys to our success?

Keeping our grove healthy:

A manicured grove of maple trees is a joy to behold. Keeping them healthy, resilient, and vital enough to thrive for a lifetime requires maintenance, planning, life long attention, and emergency care. These very same things are necessary for your teeth to remain happy and healthy. Focusing on these fundamental aspects of dental health and wellbeing, we ensure that our patients are receiving the most exceptional service available. Just as the Sugar Maple has five points to its leaves, so does our trusted dental care program.

Our five points for dental care:

Maintenance: For your teeth to remain healthy, regular maintenance is essential. Along with scheduled cleanings, we cover all aspects of dental care, and our qualified financial and insurance coordinators help you maximize your benefits program.

Assessment: Our board-certified dentists, Dr. Ryan Francis and Dr. Kate Blubaugh bring close to half a century of experience in the field. They are versed in the latest dental procedures and will expertly assess which treatment is right for you. Treatment could include implants, Invisalign, sedation dentistry, cosmetic dentistry, or the use of sleep appliances.

Planning: Throughout your life, your teeth will go through many changes. We are here every step of the way, from the initial stages of baby teeth to possible repair that may have been caused by neglect or tooth loss. Our planning process is customized to each patient’s individual needs and focuses on prevention.

Life-long Attention: Having teeth you can be proud of is only achieved when you give them the attention they deserve. It calls for commitment, and that's what we provide our patients. We're committed to seeing you happy with your self-image and also know a great deal of this positive attitude is the result of the condition of your smile. A smile is only as good as the intention behind it. Our goal is to ensure that you are happy with your smile and to assist you in achieving life-long dental health.

Emergency Care: Unexpected occurrences always have the possibility of arising, but we're prepared and ready for any dental emergency. Whether it’s a chipped, cracked, or loose tooth, we can repair any of these unforeseen accidents with the utmost concern and competent confidence.

How sweet is it to have a happy smile and healthy teeth!

We look forward to you joining our dental family.

WHAT'S THE WORD?

Lauren M.

Great first impression! — Lauren M.

I just had my first cleaning with this office and they were GREAT! I loved that they did a lot of the insurance stuff ahead of my appointment so I didn't have to worry about filling out so much paperwork in the office. I also loved the personal connection that they make with you when you are getting your teeth cleaned. They were thorough and explained everything to me in great detail. They also take photos and share them with you so you can see what your teeth really look like on all sides. I know I will continue to use them for years to come. So happy I found this place!

Stacy M.

The Grove Health staff was great! I felt very welcome... — Stacy M.

The Grove Health staff was great! I felt very welcome the entire time. From the front desk person to the hygienist all the way up to the dentist! Everyone was friendly. I did not feel pressured to do anything but instead got a detailed plan with an explanation of costs to consider. Also, the have a dental care plan for people who do not have health insurance:)

Maranda N.

Coming from someone who hates dentists.. — Maranda N.

Coming from someone who hates dentist and has never really had a great experience from one. Grove health dental is by far the best place I've ever gone too. Everyone is friendly. They remember your face even if you haven't been there for months. And the doctor actually works on the teeth he says he's going to work on. They talk to you about everything. 10/10 would recommend.

Thomas Z.

Grove Health Dental is wonderful! — Thomas Z.

Brought my son in as a new patient after a family referral -- He needed a broken front tooth repaired on his 10th birthday. Grove Health Dental was amazing from start to finish. My son loved Dr. Kate and her assistant, and they made his tooth look like the original in no time at all. Weird to say we're both looking forward to our next dentist trip! :-)

Maggie R.

I went to Grove Health Dental recently from a recommendation and it was great. Admittedly it had been awhile since I had been to the dentist and was nervous, but my dental hygienist, Adrienne, was amazing. She explained every step and calmed my fears along the way.

Dr. Francis was also very helpful and made me feel comfortable asking any questions that I had. At the end I met with Carmen who went over pricing, which I really appreciated and had never had a dental office pre-check my insurance.

Would highly recommend for anyone looking for a dentist in the Twin Cities area!
