Dentistry with a Heart
Meet Dr. Ebose Okoruwa
Dr. O always knew he wanted to create a lasting impact on his community. Growing up in Iowa, he saw how much of an impact his parents had in his town, especially his mother who is a pediatrician. Watching her change the lives of families in their town, Dr. O knew he wanted to have the same impact.
He attended the University of Iowa for college and dental school, where he earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Biochemistry and a Doctorate in Dental Surgery. He then came up to Minneapolis right after dental school for his specialty training in pediatric dentistry at the University of Minnesota. Growing up, his parents had instilled in him the values of teamwork, being the example, and caring. These values have shaped Dr. O on his path of becoming a healthcare provider. As your pediatric dentist, he is dedicated to providing personalized, compassionate, and high-quality care to his patients.
Starting this clinic has been a dream of his since going to college. He had always wanted to create a dental clinic for children of all ages that feels safe and welcoming. From his family to yours, he wants to welcome you to the practice.
Featured Services
Preventive Dentistry
Preventive care is at the heart of what we do. Early detection and prevention of disease is the best route to maintain your child's oral health. Routine cleanings, exams, fluoride treatments, and educational guidance create the foundation of preventive dentistry. From this foundation we provide at our clinic, we will help you create a great routine at home that avoids the common pitfalls that lead to disease
Laser Dentistry
Laser dentistry offers an easier alternative to traditional dental procedures for the treatment of cavities. With the laser, not only does it remove the cavity, it also numbs the tooth and reduces discomfort in the process. With the laser numbing the tooth, it also removes the need for injections for most routine fillings, which makes it an ideal treatment option for children. Laser therapy can make dental visits a more relaxed and better accepted experience for you and your child.
Sedation Dentistry
While we strive to create a comfortable, child-friendly atmosphere, we understand that some patients need extra help to get needed treatment done. We tailor our approach to fit your child's needs, and if they need to be asleep for treatment, we can provide this service at our clinic. After initial consultation, we can provide these sedation visits at our office and at local hospitals. At these visits, our team and the anesthesia team will closely monitor your child's comfort and safety every step of the way.
