Dr. Youngner

I grew up in Maple Grove, Minnesota. After graduating high school, I attended the University of St. Thomas, where I majored in neuroscience and psychology. It was here, in organic chemistry lab that I met my beautiful wife and best friend, Kaija. One of the most amazing opportunities I had before graduating was spending time in the Philippines doing marine biology research and getting to know the culture. After finishing my undergraduate degree, I attended the University of Minnesota School of Dentistry. Go Gophers!

I feel so fortunate to have such a wonderful family. My wife and I have a daughter and two sons. We also have two fur children: 1 crazy dog and 1 very mischievous cat. I’m hoping to stay a 2 pet household for a while, but my wife, who is a veterinarian, seems to have other ideas.
‍
In my free time, I enjoy golfing, skiing, mountain biking, and any other sport that keeps me active. I wish I enjoyed home maintenance and remodeling more because I find myself doing this quite often. Our family loves to spend time together outdoors, and our favorite activities are hiking and camping.

I have always been drawn to dentistry and love what I do. Being a dentist gives me the privilege of working with my hands to improve patients’ smiles as well as their dental health. It also gives me the opportunity to truly get to know patients and their families. Developing these relationships is one of the most rewarding aspects of my career. My wife, Kaija, who grew up on a hobby farm between Cambridge and North Branch, initially introduced me to the area. I feel lucky to be working in such a great community, with a fantastic dental team.

What To Expect At Your First Visit

When you walk through our doors, you’ll find yourself in the cozy and inviting office our long-time patients know and love. You’ll be greeted by our friendly team members before receiving a thorough teeth cleaning. Dr. Youngner will then complete his oral examination before discussing his findings with you and providing all available treatment options. We take the time to get to know our patients and to thoroughly explain everything, so you can rest easy knowing that you’re making an educated decision when it comes to the health of your smile. First time patients may also qualify for our Take-Home Whitening special, so don’t wait, schedule your first visit today!

Same-Day Crowns

Our office is equipped with the latest in dental crown technology, including our very own CEREC system. This system enables us to create a detailed image of your smile and then create a custom crown made of durable ceramic that is virtually indistinguishable from a natural tooth. Perhaps the biggest benefit to the CEREC system is its speed. With traditional crowns, there is usually a waiting period of several weeks between your initial visit and receiving your crown. Because we design and construct our crowns in-house, you’ll walk out of our office on the same day as your visit with a beautiful and functional smile.

Digital X-rays

We utilize the latest in intraoral and extraoral radiograph technology to create super-detailed images of what’s going on beneath the surface of your smile, all while exposing you to a minimal amount of radiation. Digital x-rays are safe, and effective, and help us to give you the exceptional dental care that you deserve.
