Patient Testimonials

"My daughter fell when she was around two years old. She hit her front teeth on the steps. Eventually they fell out, and when her permanent ones came in they had scars on them. Basically white spots on them. She's never been a shy kid, never afraid to smile, very outgoing. Just the other day she had an appointment to fix the spots. And after that appointment, when she first looked the mirror to see what Dr. Jennifer had done, you could not wipe that smile off her eleven year old face. I definitely recommend J&D Dental to everyone I know. Thanks again. A smile goes a long way!"

"Before & After Magic I had grown up with an authoritarian dentist who made me feel like a failure for my bad teeth--like having a cavity was a personal insult on him and his profession. It took awhile to overcome the resentment that early experience instilled in me. When I found J&D Dental, I was very pleased with their proactive and patient-first attitude. They didn't waste time scolding me for my past and have made my smile beautiful. It's coming up on a one year anniversary since my first appointment with them, and I owe them a great deal of thanks. Dentistry should be therapeutic in all aspects, and my experience with Dr. Herbert and Dr. DeChant has demonstrated that fully."

"Positive Dental Experience For most people hearing Positive and Dental in the same sentence sounds like an oxymoron. But really the J&D Dental staff makes what is typically a bad experience a good experience. I will keep going there and suggest them to my friends and family. Thank you Ladies, Mike I love my dentists! I never thought I'd be praising a dental office, but this is the one. Everyone is so friendly and accommodating, and you will leave feeling great about your experience. Thank you Drs. DeChant and Herbert!"

"Very Welcoming!! This office is great! The entire staff is so welcoming and they all make you feel very comfortable. I actually enjoy going to the Dentist because every experience has been great and I know I am truly being taken care of. Best office in town! I love J&D Dental!"

"Fun to Floss I have been going to J & D for several years and have never had a bad experience. From the first moment of walking in for the appointment you are welcomed by great staff. Then I am taken care of by experienced, professional and friendly dental hygienist. The personal touch they have goes a long way, I am not just another client. They have even got me to start flossing on a daily basis! That is a huge feat in itself!"

"The best dental experience I can imagine! I cannot explain how much I dislike going to the dentist. For that reason, I put off my normal dentist appointment for about 4 years before finally going into J & D Dental's downtown Minneapolis office.... My experience could not have been more pleasant! They were the most kind, personal and professional dentistry personnel I have ever seen or could have imagined. It was the first (and only) time I have ever been okay with having the report of a cavity to be filled. They clearly explained the options in front of me and how much it would cost me based on my insurance. When it came time to fill my cavity, they eased my nervousness with not only nitrous (awesome!) but my choice of music on an Ipod shuffle to listen to while they ...

I have never heard of any business going to those lengths to make their patient comfortable and they definitely succeeded. I would rate this dentist higher than 5 stars if it were possible, and do not dread my next appointment like I have every other time in my life. Well done!"

"My family has been going to J&D Dental since Dr. DeChant and Dr. Herbert took over the practice.  Everyone in the office is always so welcoming, and we have always had awesome service!  They do everything possible to make going to the dentist a great experience, from a serene atmosphere, the very best equipment and the newest technology, to offering i-pods and headphones to help you relax.  We always recommend them to family and friends, and everyone who goes to see them has had only positive things to say.  J&D is #1!!!"

"I love my dentist!  I bet you never heard that from anyone before.   I go to J&D dental originally because it is right across the street from my office and they take Delta Dental.  I have had nothing but a great experience with my dentist (Dr Herbert) and her partner."  

"One unique thing is the staff is entirely female.  And as my coworker stated you want a female dentist cause her hands are smaller than a man's."

"The waiting room is clean and welcoming as are the examine rooms.  And they even play good tunes."

"I recommend them to my coworkers (many have gone and now like going to the dentist)."

"Drs. Johnson and DeChant are not just any ordinary dentists. Both possess level of caring, knowledge, kindness and professionalism that is second to none. These qualities showcase all the way through their staff to the comfortable office environment. I continue to refer people to Drs. Johnson and DeChant and believe that quality, caring dentistry is what sets them apart from others.

"I have been a patient at J&D Dental for nearly ten years and would highly recommend them to anyone!  My five year old loves going to J&D Dental and so does my "dentist-shy" husband!  Their convenient downtown location and friendly and personable staff makes going to the dentist a fun and enjoyable experience!"

"J&D Dental has changed my life.  I used to shudder at the thought of going to a dentist, but J&D has been a great experience for me - they don't even laugh when my legs start flailing in the air!"
