Services
Dental Implants
Dental implants provide permanent tooth replacement solutions that mimic natural teeth. Our practice offers single and multiple implant placements with titanium posts surgically anchored in the jawbone. Patients benefit from improved chewing function, speech clarity, and facial structure preservation. We utilize advanced imaging technology for precise implant positioning and offer bone grafting when necessary to ensure long-term success.
Cosmetic Dentistry
Our cosmetic dentistry services transform smiles through veneers, teeth whitening, and bonding procedures. We address discoloration, misalignment, and shape irregularities using minimally invasive techniques. Custom treatment plans combine aesthetic principles with functional considerations to create natural-looking results that boost patient confidence and oral health.
Periodontal Disease Treatment
We specialize in comprehensive periodontal care ranging from non-surgical scaling to regenerative procedures. Our approach includes pocket reduction surgery, antimicrobial treatments, and maintenance programs to halt disease progression. Early intervention prevents tooth loss while promoting systemic health through improved oral bacteria control.
Restorations
Our restorative services include crowns, bridges, and fillings that restore damaged or missing teeth. We use durable porcelain and composite materials that match natural tooth structure. Treatments focus on preserving tooth integrity while enhancing function and aesthetics through precise fabrication and placement techniques.
Preventive Care
Preventive programs combine professional cleanings with patient education to maintain optimal oral health. We offer fluoride treatments, sealants, and digital X-rays for early decay detection. Regular exams help identify potential issues before they become complex, reducing long-term treatment needs through proactive care strategies.

I was traveling and a filling fell out - St. Paul Dental Center was able to get me in immediately. The front desk staff was very professional and nice, she was very accommodating and did an excellent job explaining the process, etc. The dental team did a great job, very friendly and quick. Overall the place was very clean with up to date equipment.

If you're looking for a place that feels welcoming, understanding, inviting, etc, look no further! I could not be more impressed with the St Paul Dental Center. I have not been to the dentist in years and quite frankly I was scared and anxious. The receptionist (I unfortunately don't know her name off the top of my head) is so warm and inviting. Anastasiya and Dr. Jensen are amazing! It is so clear how important patient comfortability is.
Its evident that they are highly skilled and know what they are doing. They take the time to explain to you what is going on and the best route to resolve the issues. They truly are amazing and I couldn't recommend this establishment more. They're the only people I would trust with my teeth.

From the clean lobby and welcoming staff and the punctuality of my scheduled appoint, the group is very professional and friendly, and most importantly thorough and considerate of my sensitive teeth. Highly recommend! Free 2 hour parking in underground ramp, easy in and out.

I was initially recommended to Dr. Sass and the St. Paul Dental Center by a friend as a last minute change to fit in a surgery prior to the EOY. However, after my experience with the whole team (Sarah and the front desk staff were great) I will definitely be making this my primary point of care. Excellent service, got extractions done quickly, painlessly and on the same day as my consultation. Very clear direction/instructions on pre-op, finances/cost, and post-op care. They make it very easy to have a great experience. Easy 5 Star.

Anastasia was very kind to me and did a great job of communicating with Dr. Sass to make sure she got the exact images he needed to see in order to help me. Dr. Sass was very personable and was fantastic when it came to walking me through the procedure and letting me know what to expect during each step before he performed them. I'm ecstatic to have found an office with kind staff members and patient centered care. I'll definitely be returning to this clinic for all future dental needs. Thank you!

This was my first visit to St. Paul Dental Center and I am completely impressed - the team here is outstanding! Anastasiya is an exceptional dental assistant, my hygienist was great, and Dr. Sass is nothing but kind and professional. I have never been compelled to write a review for a dental office experience, but this was noteworthy. If you're looking for a dentist, I highly recommend St. Paul Dental Center!
