Our services
Checkups, fillings, crowns and more
Preventive care keeps treatment small. When you do need more, we explain every option and its cost before we begin.
Checkups & cleanings
A thorough exam, gentle cleaning and digital X-rays when you need them, usually once every six months.
Children’s dentistry
Friendly first visits, sealants and fluoride for kids from their first birthday, at a pace that suits them.
Tooth-colored fillings
Natural-looking composite fillings that repair cavities and chipped teeth, usually in one visit.
Crowns & bridges
Strong, natural-looking crowns and bridges to protect weak teeth or replace a missing one.
Teeth whitening
Professional take-home whitening trays, fitted to your teeth, for a brighter smile in two to three weeks.
Emergency dental care
Toothache, a broken tooth or a lost filling? Call us first thing and we will do our best to see you the same day.
Welcome
A neighborhood practice that knows you by name
We are a small team, and we like it that way. You see the same dentist and hygienist each time, we keep appointments on time, and we never rush you out of the chair.
Our office is bright and quiet, with modern equipment that makes treatment faster and more comfortable: digital X-rays, 3D scans instead of messy impressions, and TVs and noise-canceling headphones if you would like them.

New to Maple Grove Family Dental?
Your first visit takes about 90 minutes: a relaxed chat, any X-rays you need, a full exam and cleaning, and a clear plan with costs. You decide what happens next.
Kind words
What our patients say
We bring our whole family here, including our very nervous six-year-old. Everyone is patient and kind, and he actually looks forward to his visits now.
Laura M. I had avoided the dentist for years. Dr. Okafor explained everything before he started and checked in with me the whole time. No lecture, just help.
Daniel R. The front desk sorted out my insurance before my visit and told me exactly what I would pay. No surprises on the bill, which I really appreciated.
