In 1972, Dr. Greg Swenson and Dr. Bud Murn saw a need for consistent, high quality, affordable dental care in their community. With their vision to put patients first, they formed one of the first group practices in Minnesota.

Our doctors and clinical staff are committed to delivering the highest quality of care to every patient. Each team member strives to make your experience at Park Dental the best dental experience youve ever had.

With dozens of convenient and locally owned locations throughout the Twin Cities and greater Minnesota, there are plenty of reasons to choose Park Dental. Our history of providing personalized, quality care is unrivaled in the Twin Cities, and we treat each patient as a valuable part of the Park Dental family.

Whether youve moved to a new area, are looking to change your dental provider or just need a second opinion, we have a qualified dentist close by to provide the care you need. There are many reasons our patients choose Park Dental. Here are the main reasons they keep coming back:

Park Dental has experienced doctors and team members who do whats right for our patients. Many of us have invested our entire careers at Park Dental. We look forward to a bright future caring for your dental needs.

Our rigorous credentialing program ensures that each doctor, dental hygienist and dental assistant is properly licensed. Our clinical excellence and quality assurance standards put our patients at ease so they can focus on getting to know their doctor and team members without worrying about the quality of care.

Park Dental doctors and team members stay up-to-date with the latest procedures and technology. Some teach at the University of Minnesota Dental School and other community and technical colleges. We also serve on dental advisory boards and participate in professional dental associations.

Whatever your dental needs, we provide the individualized care you need to enjoy a lifetime of oral health. Regular visits to your dentist are one of the best ways to prevent cavities and gum disease, and the American Dental Association recommends you see a dentist at least once a year. For optimal dental health, most of our patients visit every 6 months according to their personalized care plan.

We understand that todays dental care is better than yesterdays. Thats why we are always pursuing the latest and most effective dental technology. Our practices invest in state-of-the-art technology to ensure you will always get the best dental care available.

One benefit of our group practice is convenience and flexibility. Some family members can visit a location near home or school and a parent can choose a location near work. We make it easy for you to get the care you need, when and where you need it.

On your first visit, we ask you to complete an online new patient registration form. If youve seen a dentist in the past, we can help to facilitate the transfer of your dental records and radiographs (X-rays).

Park Dental accepts most dental insurance plans and has a wide range of payment options including cash, check, debit card and credit card. We also offer convenient payment options through Wells Fargo so you dont have to worry about how you are going to afford your treatment.

Park Dental was founded on the principle of making communities better through accessible dental care, and we remain committed to promoting the importance of dental health throughout our communities. Our core purpose is to improve peoples lives as a leader in oral health.

Participating in the community is part of who we are. Our involvement includes Give Kids a Smile, Minnesota Mission of Mercy, the American Heart Association, American Diabetes Association Tour de Cure, health fairs, community events, parades, neighborhood festivals, providing learning resources, volunteering, teaching about good dental hygiene at local schools and daycare centers, and much more.

Even after 45 years, we continue to work to refine our practices so youll receive the best dental care possible. Thats why individuals and families throughout the Twin Cities, greater Minnesota and western Wisconsin have trusted Park Dental with their care for the past five decades.

Every doctor and team member is fully credentialed and licensed (as the position requires), reviewed by peers and continually learning and improving. Our quality assurance standards build confidence with our patients so they can continue to trust our dental care and services.

As a dental group, we provide on-going opportunities for mentoring, constructive feedback and professional development at every level: doctors, dental hygienists, dental assistants, scheduling managers and practice managers. Every Park Dental doctor participates in our peer evaluation and mentoring program to help ensure each patient receives necessary and appropriate care. Mentoring is a positive experience at Park Dental because the focus is on learning and growing in our profession to benefit our patients.

We promote a culture of continuous improvement and learning. Park Dental doctors invest resources and time to provide continuing education for themselves and their teams. We customize our training and development programs so we can better meet the specific needs of our patients. Being a group practice allows us to pool our resources. For example, we are able to bring in local and national experts to conduct seminars and training for our doctors and team members.

Our commitment is to provide learning opportunities for professional and personal growth so that everyone acquires new skills that enhance our ability to meet patients needs. A high-quality continuing education program benefits our patients because the more we know, the better we can care for your needs.

Each doctor receives routine reviews by other Park Dental dentists. These reviews evaluate appropriateness of care and proper patient record documentation. Doctors and team members also receive one-on-one feedback as a part of our ongoing peer review and quality assurance processes.

Park Dentals partnership with specialty dental providers, such as The Dental Specialists, allows us to meet most dental needs you or your family may have throughout your lifetime. We provide all general dentistry services and refer patients to a specialists when advanced care is required.

Our close working relationship with these specialty doctors helps us to provide dental care that is seamless and consistent. Collaboration also provides educational opportunities and professional growth as we work together on behalf of our patients needs.

Our facilities are professionally designed and appointed to allow each location to promote clinical excellence and patient comfort. The environment of our practices is calm and professional, enhanced by natural light, color and art.

Park Dental supports and participates in The Dental Practice-Based Research Network (DPBRN) whose mission is To improve oral health by conducting dental practice-based research and by serving dental professionals through education and collegiality.

The Dental Practice-Based Research Network (DPBRN) is a consortium of participating practices and dental organizations committed to advancing knowledge of dental practice and ways to improve it. Essentially, it is practical science done about, in and for the benefit of real world daily clinical practice. DPBRNs major source of funding is the National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research (NIDCR), part of the U.S. National Institutes of Health (NIH).

When you visit a Park Dental location, you will receive quality care that is necessary and appropriate the right care for you. Our approach to patient-centered care is exemplified by our S-E-R-V-I-C-E:

Our approach to dental care begins with a thorough, comprehensive examination. We recommend a treatment plan to meet your individual needs and discuss how to approach that treatment, keeping you at the center of the decision-making process.

Our patients often request elective services like teeth whitening, veneers and composite (white) fillings. We work with you to produce the desired results because we want you to look good and feel good about your smile.

At every Park Dental location you will receive quality care from well-trained doctors and team members. Our quality assurance and peer review programs help ensure high standards of care are upheld. Our facilities and processes meet or exceed state and federal standards.

At Park Dental, doctors inspire each other every day. Doctors learn from those more experienced, and doctors who have practiced for years renew their passion for learning through interactions with newer doctors.

We get great results because our doctors and team members listen to their patients and encourage each other to contribute their unique perspective and abilities. We make decisions by asking one question: Whats best for the patient?

We believe the best value we can provide any patient is dental health for a lifetime. Were here for you when you need us. We provide our patients a full range of dental services, including emergency care, at convenient locations with extended hours.

Park Dental strives to be a good neighbor to our communities. We participate in Give Kids a Smile, Minnesota Mission of Mercy, American Heart Association Start! Heart Walk, American Diabetes Association Diabetes Expo, health fair and community events. We also provide learning resources, volunteer and teach good dental hygiene at local schools and daycare centers.

All doctors and team members are fully credentialed according to the requirements for their position and participate in continuing education throughout their careers. At Park Dental, you can be confident you will receive care from highly educated, well-trained professionals.

I've been going to this dentist for ten years. I liked and trusted them until recently. I discovered that they over-charge me by over $400 over two separate visits in the last year. At my most recent visit I apparently had a credit of $160 on my account (a credit that had been sitting there for almost a year) and instead of applying that amount to my most recent bill, they charged me double what they should have. Instead of issuing a refund, they give me the run-around, they say they'll call me back and almost never do, and they've told me a check is in the mail three times so far. I have not received a check. So be sure to check your insurance statements and save your receipts. I will never go here again.

Everyone hates going to the dentist, but the staff at George Dental Group actually make it an enjoyable experience. Dr Kellee and her staff are very knowledgeable, professional and are always concerned with my comfort during any procedure. I have been a customer since they opened and recommend George Dental Group to everyone I know. If you are looking for a new dentist, I highly recommend checking them out!

I've been going here for years and George Dental group has taken great care of me. From cleanings, fillings and now an implant they've always done a great job.

The dental care itself is fine, but I unknowingly had a small balance with them after I lost my insurance and changed my address (I wasn't getting the statements, and they had my phone number). The woman in charge of payments called me with a snotty attitude for no good reason considering my history with the place, and it makes me not want to do business with them when my insurance soon returns.

George Dental Group is always an outstanding experience. I recommend them to all friends in need of a general dentist but now also recommend them for anything cosmetic! Recently, I broke a tooth and they were able to squeeze me in the next morning. Dr Kellee and her staff got things rolling right away as I had a major event happening in a few weeks. I was very worried, but George Dental Group put in a temporary tooth and was able to get my new permanent tooth made and installed before the event. I'm extremely happy, the tooth looks amazingly realistic, fits comfortably, and matches my real teeth perfectly. No one can even tell which one it is! Thank you George Dental and Dr Kellee for your amazing work!

I had just moved into the area and needed an emergency dentist. They saw me that morning and called a dozen places to get me seen by a specialist that same day as the pain was excruciating. They went above and beyond and we will be going back there for all our regular treatments

Love Dr. Kellee and all of her staff. Professional, knowledgeable, goes above and beyond. I always know I'm in the best hands when I come in to the dentist. The massage chairs are the best part!

I have been a patient for about 7 years. In the beginning, they treated you like a patient, very personable, almost like a small town dentist. But now that the practice has grown in size, that welcoming and caring feeling is long gone. Trying to get an appointment in an emergency is non-existent. I have a cavity that I informed them about and they cannot see me for over 2 months. If you want to be treated like a number who put profits over patients, George Dental is your place. George started out great, but has fizzled the last couple of years. I do have to say Dr. Kelly is awesome, but good luck trying to get in to see her.

This dental practice is absolutely AMAZING! I have been seeing Dr. Kelli for almost 2 years now. I was referred to her from a former patient who referred to her as "a gal's gal who just gets it" and that is EXACTLY what she is! From the making of the appointment to my initial cleaning...the entire staff was so warm and friendly and accommodating. Dr. Kelli did the most thorough exam I have ever had and really listened to my concerns. I am a teeth clencher and needed to address some deterioration at my gum line. I am only 35 and this scared me both because of the early symptoms AND of the possible cost. But! Barb sat down with me and took me through an exact quote and walked me through a strategy of matching this with my dental insurance. If you are looking for a great team for your entire family (I referred MY sister and Mom!) go to George Dental! I now travel over 2 hours to see them because I won't go anywhere else! They have my loyalty.
