Services
General Dentistry
Our general dentistry services focus on preventive care and early intervention. We provide comprehensive exams, cleanings, and restorative treatments using advanced diagnostic tools. Patients benefit from personalized oral health education and long-term treatment planning. Our approach emphasizes maintaining natural teeth while preventing future dental issues.
Cosmetic Dentistry
Cosmetic dentistry transforms smiles through veneers, whitening, and alignment treatments. We offer porcelain veneers, KOR whitening systems, and Invisalign clear aligners. Our team prioritizes natural-looking results that enhance facial aesthetics while maintaining functional dental health for lasting confidence.
Wellness Dentistry
Wellness dentistry connects oral health to systemic well-being. We screen for oral cancer, sleep apnea, and TMJ disorders while addressing periodontal health's impact on overall wellness. Our hygienists create personalized care plans integrating preventive treatments and patient education for comprehensive health benefits.
Invisalign
Invisalign treatment straightens teeth discreetly using custom clear aligners. We provide sequential trays that gradually reposition teeth without traditional brackets. Patients enjoy removable appliances for eating and cleaning, with treatment times often shorter than conventional braces for improved aesthetics and function.
Botox
Cosmetic Botox treatments reduce facial wrinkles and manage dental-related muscle tension. We use FDA-approved formulas to smooth frown lines, crow's feet, and forehead creases while offering therapeutic applications for TMJ disorders and bruxism relief in a dental setting.

Best dental office in the twin cities! Very professional, clean, kind, thorough, and all around fantastic. The doctors listened to all of my concerns and explained everything very clearly. My hygienist, Jenna, does a spectacular job every time I visit. I had to have procedure done and they were able to do it the same day! The dental assistant, Sydney, was very knowledgeable and kind. Definitely recommend Linden Hills Dentistry!

I had an immediate problem with a chipped tooth and they were even able to accommodate me that day. Not that that would always be true but I was impressed. The staff is always extremely friendly and accommodating the office is Spotless and clean as are the examination rooms. Staff explained everything the dentist was great and put me at ease had a procedure went well. I could not be happier with Linden Hills dentistry. They have my highest recommendation
