Dr. Moos grew up in Eden Prairie. He received his Bachelor of Science degree from the University of Wisconsin in Madison and then completed the Doctor of Dental Surgery program at the University of Minnesota School of Dentistry. Dr. Moos served three years in the United States Navy where he was stationed at the Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune in North Carolina. While there, he completed a one-year Advanced Education in General Dentistry Residency program.
Dr. Moos has also attended continuing education courses in orthodontics, pediatric dentistry, periodontics, advanced esthetic dentistry, endodontics, and more. He is a member of the American Dental Association, Minnesota Dental Association, Spear Comprehensive Dentistry Study Club, and West Suburban Study Club. He also studied at the Spear Education Center for Advanced Dentistry in Scottsdale, Arizona.
Dr. Moos enjoys many aspects of dentistry; however, the most rewarding are the personal relationships he develops with his patients and staff. He has a passion for providing the finest and most up-to-date treatment and therapy that dentistry has to offer.
Dr. Moos and his wife, Alyssa, live with their three children in Eden Prairie. His personal interests include spending time with family, camping, running, biking, and cross-country skiing with his Siberian husky. He and his wife also enjoy traveling locally and abroad.
Dr. Boerema grew up near Ann Arbor, Michigan, where he attended college and met his wife Meg (a real Minnesotan). He then completed his dental degree at the University of Minnesota. Throughout his career as a general dentist, Dr. Boerema has participated in a variety of continuing education courses, clubs, and mentorships.
Like all of the dentists at PDG, Dr Boerema believes in a life long approach to dental care. This begins with a thorough examination and assessment, then incorporating his patients personal factors into their treatment plan. Whenever possible, several options are discussed so that risks, benefits, and differences can all be understood before definitive care is provided.
Dr. Boerema and his wife are frequent visitors to the bike trails, lakes, and coffee shops around the Twin Cities. The Boeremas have two high energy children, and one low energy dog named Holmes. Dr. Boerema has recorded one hole-in-one and one broken window on the golf course, he considers this juxtaposition an accurate reflection of his golf skill.
Dr. Watson is a native of Rochester, MN. After graduating summa cum laude from the University of St. Thomas with a Bachelor of Science in biochemistry, he received his Doctor of Dental Surgery degree from the University of Nebraska. Dr. Watson furthered his dental education by entering an Advanced Education in General Dentistry (AEGD) residency at the University of Missouri-Kansas City. This program provided him advanced training in fixed (crown & bridge), removable (dentures), and implant dentistry. He is an active member of the Spear Comprehensive Dentistry Study Club.
Dr. Watson is a fourth generation dentist following the footsteps of his great-grandpa, grandpa, and aunt. His mother is a retired dental hygienist. Growing up surrounded by dentistry has taught Dr. Watson the importance of patient relationships. He strives to learn the desires of each patient and tailor his treatment to meet their unique needs so that they may keep all of their teeth for a lifetime.
When away from the office, Dr. Watson can be found bike riding, hiking, skiing, and wakeboarding. You may also find him attempting to play golf. Unfortunately, he has not been blessed with the Watson golf genes; they apparently all went to Tom and Bubba. He is also an avid Nebraska Cornhusker Football fan. Go Big Red!
Dr. Watson is the middle child of a medical family. His oldest sister Jennifer is a veterinarian in Rochester. His sister Michelle is an optometrist at Hennepin Healthcare in Minneapolis. Lastly, his identical twin brother is an ophthalmologist in St. Louis, MO.

Dr. Engelbrektson is committed to serving each patient with gentle, individualized care. He believes dentistry is both a science and an art. He enjoys practicing all aspects of general dentistry, with a strong interest in digital dentistry, oral surgery, and endodontics. He is dedicated to improving his knowledge and skills through continuing dental education and is a member of the American Dental Association, Minnesota Dental Association, and the Academy of General Dentistry.

Dr. E and Tasha were outrageously patient working with my 6 year old who had had a previous bad experience with a different dentist. Scheduling was quick and easily taken care of. We will definitely be back there if we move to the area.

I am so unhappy about what happened my doctor saw another patient while he was not done with my first tooth filling. I was left for 20 minutes numb with a first tooth filling half done and waited because he had another patient !Such an incident should never happen to anyone. I will be billed and my insurance is going to pay you. I am blaming the scheduling staff. The dr and hygienist were great. It is time to treat all your patient with respect.

I took my adult special needs step-daughter in for a cleaning appointment and exam. Jessica was our hygienist. She was very personable and not only did an excellent job cleaning, polishing, etc., but her chair side manner with my step-daughter was outstanding. I would definitely recommend Jessica.

I've been going here for 5 years. I keep going back because of the consistent exceptional service! Dr. Boerema is pleasant and nice every time I see him. He's through and professional. Hygienist Jessica D pulled out all the stops for me to help me get the pearly whites I was after, after being dismayed about my coffee and tea stains. She took my concerns seriously and went to work! She delivered the cleanest teeth ! This dental office makes going to the dentist such a pleasant experience! They have T.V's on the ceiling, bird feeders outside the windows and copious amounts of free dental supplies to keep you stocked up until your next visit! This place is truly worth your time!

My most recent experience at Prairie Dental Group was the best one by far. I had never had Dr. Watson before this visit, but I was so impressed by his thorough explanation to everything he was doing. Jessica was my hygienist and she was the most important part to this great experience. She answered my questions and gave me some great tips on how to take care of my teeth better. She went above and beyond what was required of her to give the patient the best experience possible. I will definitely be requesting to have Jessica and Dr. Watson in the future!

I came to Prairie Dental and received emergency assistance with a broken tooth. I was seen at very short notice but they were kind enough to accommodate me. I have never been comfortable at any dentist before, i have also not been to a dentist often (to my embarrasment). I was treated kindly, proffessionally and overal well. I loved my visit there and would recommend this dentist to anybody.
