ABOUT THE OFFICE

J & D Dental has a long and successful history in the Twin Cities. Founded in 1928 by the McEachran family, the practice was taken over by Dr. Jennifer Herbert (Johnson) in 1998. Since that time we've continued to grow - moving to our current location in Minneapolis' Roanoke building, and building a state-of-the-art dental facility for the highest level of service and patient care.

Through the years, our values and mission have remained the same -- to provide quality dental services for our patients in a safe, calm, and comfortable space.

Dr. Herbert

Dr. Jennifer Herbert received her Doctor of Dental Surgery degree with honors from the University of Minnesota School of Dentistry in 1998. She is one of a handful of practicing dentists in the Twin Cities who has attended the world-renowned post graduate program in esthetic dentistry at the University of Minnesota. She is a current member of the American Dental Association and the Minnesota Dental Association. 

 

Dr. Herbert’s patients are charmed by her joyful laughter and her delicate chair side manner. Her meticulous nature ensures beautiful smiles for all of her patients! She takes great pride in her work and produces amazing results.

 

Dr. Herbert and her husband, Tony, enjoy the great outdoors by boating and fishing in Northern Minnesota with their daughters, Abigail and Olivia, and their yellow lab, Remmington.
