‘‘Great oral health practice with caring staff and dentists. I have used the services of Dr. Merrill for several years. Just completed my Invisalign treatment, and the results are fabulous. Very happy with the end results. If you need a new dentist, I would not hesitate using the services of NorthStar Dentistry. Highly recommend.’’

Joann S., (5-Star Google Review)

‘‘The hygienist and dentist both took time to learn about me as a new patient and my expectations for my dental care. The hygienist did a good job on the cleaning, and the dentist did a thorough job of checking my jaw movements for all directions, discomfort, strength, and, naturally, my teeth. They found a small cavity and scheduled me for the following Tuesday. Everyone was very friendly, and there was a relaxing atmosphere.’’

Jack K. (Five-Star Google review)

‘‘Last year, I was going through major struggles with one of my molars - I had seen two dentists prior, with no resolution in my oral pain. A friend recommended North Star Dentistry to me, and it was such a blessing. I am finally pain-free. From the moment you walk into their office, the environment is relaxing, and you are greeted by their kind receptionists. The dental hygienists are patient and thorough. Dr. Merrill is truly skilled in his profession - his bedside manner is excellent. Any problem I want to be addressed gets taken seriously, and a solution is developed. He explains procedures in detail to make sure I am comfortable with the care I will receive - this has helped tremendously to reduce my dental office anxiety. After moving to another state, I continue to see Dr. Merrill for my dental work - the care he provides is unmatched.’’

‘‘I love this place.
I went there with intentions of getting dentures, but Dr. Bunn took good care of me and made me realize my teeth are not that bad and is now working on them to save them and give me a healthy mouth.
