We compared 16 dentists in Minneapolis on Google Maps · 5 listed · How we rank

Picking a dentist is mostly a question of whether the office fits your workday, and the dentists in Minneapolis below are all downtown or in the Mill District. Every one holds a 4.9 on Google across 2,380 reviews between them, so stars can't separate them. Opening hours, Invisalign work and emergency care can.

Short answer: J & D Dental leads with 4.9 stars across 731 Google reviews. Ivory Dental Group (432 reviews), Dental Arts of Minneapolis (416), Skyway Dental Clinic (406) and Mill District Dental (395) all share that 4.9 rating. J & D, Ivory and Dental Arts list a 7:00 AM start on weekdays. None of them publishes prices in the data we pulled, so ask for a written estimate before any treatment.

Health information disclaimer: This directory is informational only and not medical advice. Rankings reflect publicly available Google ratings and review volume, not clinical outcomes. Verify any practitioner’s credentials and registration with the relevant medical board before booking.

How the scorecard works

Every number on this page comes from public Google data on the date shown, not from opinion or payment. Rating is the live Google star average. Review volume is how many patients have rated the practice, compared with other Minneapolis dentists. Confidence weighs the rating by that volume, so 4.9 from hundreds of people counts for more than 4.9 from a handful. Recency reflects how recently reviews are still arriving. No business can pay to change these numbers.

What drives a dentist’s bill in Minneapolis

Dental fees depend on the treatment, the materials, whether a specialist is involved and what your insurance covers. We don’t quote prices here because none appear in the data we pulled, and a written treatment plan from the office is the only number that applies to you.

Dentists downtown and in the Mill District

These practices sit around Nicollet Mall, South 7th Street, 2nd Avenue South and the Mill District on Washington Avenue. If you work downtown, an early slot at 7:00 AM can fit before the day starts. Looking for a dentist near me? Each listing shows a phone number and map link.

Questions to ask before booking a dentist

Do you accept my insurance, and what is the new-patient exam and X-ray fee?
Can I get a same-day or next-day slot if I have a broken tooth?
Will you give me a written treatment plan that splits insurance coverage from my cost?
Which dentist would I see, and do you offer sedation if I’m anxious?
What hours are you open, including early mornings and Fridays?
