Steve T.
Have been going to Twin Cities Modern Dentistry for many years, and love it! Friendly staff, knowledgeable, and extremely good at what they do. Jamie, my dental hygienist is the best! They make it so that I don’t even mind going to the dentist, which is amazing!
Lori & Dennis
I have been to Twin Cities Modern Dentistry MANY times over the last 2 years and they have done a great job! Several Root canals, crowns and a night mouth guard. I love the fact that I don't have to make several trips to get a crown and that it can all be done in the same day! They have always made it clear to me that they want me to be happy and that I can do things on my schedule to get everything done that I need. I'm happy to say I would recommend them for your dental needs. Kind, courteous, competent, and professional.

TOver the years I've been to multiple dental offices for work, and Twin Cities Modern Dentistry is hands down the best experience I've had at the dentist. I've had a fear of dentists for years and they are very good at making sure I am comfortable, and explain what they are going to do before they do it.
Marcia G.
Dr. Henrickson does a great job! I’ve had quite a bit of dental work done by him over the past few years, and he has done everything from fillings, to crowns, to an implant with a tissue graft. He has very up-to-date equipment and his expertise is the best! The hygienists are also very good- thorough and friendly! I would highly recommend Twin Cities Modern Dentistry and Dr. Henrickson!
