Our Latest Patient Testimonial
I just wanted you to know what a great experience my son, Michael had. He was in your office for wisdom teeth extraction at the end of December. The office staff and Dr. Heggland were wonderful! Very patient and explained in detail what would happen that day. Michael had all 4 teeth extracted and was good as new 7-10 days later. Thank you for providing these services to the community. We will make sure to highly recommend your office to others needing dental work.

I visited Dr. Heggland last week to have an implant removed. Dr. Heggland helped me choose the correct approach for my treatment. I was given enough time to ask all my questions and receive thorough and thoughtful responses. The treatment was painless and quick. Thank you Stephanie
