Mount Auburn Dental
We know that many people don't enjoy going to the dentist. We have designed our practice as a true dental home where your needs are met with care and compassion. At Mount Auburn Dental, you receive personal attention from either Dr. Helmkamp or Dr. Gagnon and team at every visit. Our goal is to form a partnership with you in ensuring a lifetime of healthy, functional, and beautiful smiles.

When you make Mount Auburn Dental your dental home, you know exactly who you will see during every visit. Dr. Jim Helmkamp has found that our patients appreciate our choice to have a small, personal office. With our two experienced hygienists, we take time to get to know you and to understand your goals and priorities, as well as your oral health needs.
Services
Dr. Jim Helmkamp is proud of our team of dedicated dental professionals. All members of our team are concerned about our family of patients and will go out of our way to make you feel comfortable in our office. Our friendly smiles and outgoing personalities will help you feel welcome and at ease. Please do not hesitate to ask for our assistance.
We provide excellent preventive care, including exams, cleanings, and digital x-rays. Early detection of dental problems is essential to gain optimal oral health. The American Dental Association recommends that you follow a schedule of twice yearly cleanings and exams. Per the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry, your child should visit the dentist within six months after the presence of the first tooth or by his or her first birthday.
Your oral health affects every part of your life, from your appearance and self-esteem to your overall health and wellness. This means that your oral health needs are as unique as you are. Great dentistry can improve the appearance, function, and health of your teeth at any age. That's why we have designed our practice to provide gentle, personalized care to every patient.
The American Dental Association (ADA) recommends dental visits at least twice per year. Regular exams and professional cleanings can help to ensure optimal oral health. At Mount Auburn Dental, our team consistently provides high-quality dental cleanings and thorough preventive exams. Professional cleanings rid the teeth of harmful plaque and tartar build-up.
There are additional ways to help keep teeth strong and healthy. Toothpastes and mouth rinses with fluoride are available over-the-counter. Eating a balanced diet and limiting sugary snacks can also contribute to good oral health. When you can, drink a glass of water after meals. This can help wash away sugars from foods and drinks.

Couldn't be happier.. They not only care about your teeth, they also care about your entire well being. Doctor Gagnon is a welcome addition to their excellent team

Dr. Helmcamp is honest when giving your treatment options and involves you in your dental decisions. The best part is that he doesn't do unnecessary procedures and has never steered me wrong. I have been one of his patients for nearly a decade and wish I found him sooner.

Everything went very well. I have been coming here for 28 years. Dr. Helmkamp is very good, professional and personable. I had a new hygienist named Eliza and she did a great job! She was so gentle and professional. BTW, the new cinnamon toothpaste is awesome!!

This is a odd review because the majority of our experience was very positive. The dental hygienists were great, the doctor made me feel comfortable and relaxed, just as my regular dentist does, and I was quite pleased with that aspect.
But when it came to the receptionist who handles the billing I was most frustrated. I understand that on day… one, my visit, I confused her with my insurance info and she ended up billing me directly and told me the insurance company would be sending payment to me.
But on day two, my husband's appointment, she wanted to bill the same way, despite having all
