Switched hygienists in coming to J&D Dental and it was the greatest dental experience I have ever had. Sarah is not only exceptional, but the care was impressive as well. The technology available is first class, and a simple cleaning procedure was a breeze. Dr. Herbert is beyond personable...

I happened to get a mailer from them right when I was considering trying a downtown dentist after a recent move, and I'm so glad I did. The hygienist was great, as was the dentist (Sarah), and their tech was even better than my last office (which was top notch). I highly recommend these folks!

Douglas Meisner

First and only dentists office I have ever been to, hoping to keep it that way. Staff is great. Service is excellent. So many people talk about how they hate going to the dentist, but with J & D Dental the experience is enjoyable. I tell my friends about my dentist office and they get jealous.

Raven Wolf

Teeth scraped, cleaned and polished by a terrific hygienist, periodontal check with out pain or bleeding, Dr Herbert checks my Invisaline progress and crown replacement issue and together we discuss and find a way to get them done before the end of the year - a win-win for everyone! I love the professionalism of Dr Jennifer Herbert, DDS and her amazing staff and their willingness to work with every patient's anxities and idiocinracies. Thank you for giving me back my smile.

I needed a crown for the first time in my life and these folks took what is objectively an awful experience and made it easy and as comfortable as it could be. Getting a crown isn't a very great experience but they did amazingly. Very helplful and reassuring, and they know their stuff. They got...

Zach Halliwell

I've been a patient here for 20+ years and have only ever had positive experiences. The ladies at the front desk are welcoming, the dental hygienists are kind and gentle, and Dr. Herbert and her assistants are excellent. My dental hygiene habits have fluctuated over the years and during the worst of times, I was treated with the same respect and care that I'm treated with now. I cannot recommend and thank Dr. Herbert and her amazing team enough.

I was in Minneapolis on business and needed some urgent dental work done. I contacted J & D and they were able to work me into the schedule. I chose them because of their five star rating and they certainly did not disappoint. The entire staff was amazing to work with and Dr. Herbert was incredible. If I lived in Minneapolis, this would be my Dentist without any question. Highly recommended!! Thanks Dr. Herbert and staff for taking such great care of me!!

Why should I get a custom mouthguard instead of a store-bought one?

Custom mouthguards offer a personalized fit, providing superior comfort and protection compared to store-bought options. Unlike boil-and-bite guards, they are designed specifically for your teeth and won't slip or cause discomfort. Dr. Herbert's custom guards fit snugly and protect against injuries, jaw pain, and enamel erosion. With proper care, they last longer and provide more reliable protection.

How does a custom mouthguard protect against dental injuries?

A custom mouthguard cushions your teeth and jaw, reducing the risk of damage during sports or from nighttime grinding. It absorbs shock and distributes force evenly, preventing chipped or cracked teeth, jaw injuries, and soft tissue damage. Dr. Herbert ensures the guard fits perfectly to maximize protection and comfort. Wearing it consistently can help you avoid costly dental repairs.

Can a mouthguard help with teeth grinding?

Yes, a custom mouthguard (often called a nightguard) can prevent damage caused by grinding or clenching your teeth. It forms a protective barrier that cushions your teeth and reduces stress on your jaw. Dr. Herbert will design the guard to fit comfortably while minimizing enamel wear and jaw pain. Wearing it nightly helps prevent long-term damage and relieves symptoms of bruxism.
