As a general dentist, in a family-friendly practice, I love caring for multiple generations and enjoy my conversations with each person. Whether I'm seeing a toddler at a first visit, improving their parent's smile, or restoring function so their grandparent is able to eat the foods they want, I'm always focused on the person's situation and what's best for them.
I was drawn to dentistry at a very young age. My father is a general dentist in Florida and I grew up watching him, and eventually assisting in his practice, as he cared for patients. I saw how he listened to each patient, respected their concerns, and helped improve their quality of life. I knew, early on, that I wanted to do the same.

I love being a dentist! It's an amazing profession that allows me to meet many wonderful people and build real connections while helping improve lives. What happens in our mouth affects our body and vice versa. That interconnection means that by helping people achieve a healthier smile I'm also helping them develop a healthier body and find more enjoyment in life.
I enjoy getting to know my patients, learning their dental needs, and working with them to meet those needs. It means a lot to me to have built great relationships with my patients and I love the friendships we've grown over the years. My job is to help patients with their oral health. While addressing everything from routine cleanings to treating periodontal disease, I focus on education.
For me, being a dentist is about making a difference for the people in my community. When a person has strong oral health, their bodily health is strengthened and when they have a smile they love, they have stronger self-esteem and confidence. Dentistry is more than working on and fixing teeth: it's caring for the person and helping each as they achieve their dental goals.
Your family's oral health, and each person's smiles, are important to you. You want your loved ones to have functional, pain-free mouths and a great smile they're proud to share. At North Appleton Dentistry, LLC, we understand your desires and look forward to helping your family members achieve optimal dental health and smiles that allow their personalities to shine!
Our practice is committed to providing you and your family with safe, gentle, high-quality dental care. We understand that you, or your child, may feel anxious about visiting the dentist. We are sensitive to your needs, and it is our goal to make you feel comfortable visiting our practice while providing the best care possible.

New customer. I was looking for a dental office that more closely matched my dentist where I previously lived: smaller office, more interested in their patients than as just another customer, explained their work fully, just plain appeared to care more about their patient. Found it! Very happy with my initial visit, and ability to get appointments quickly.

New to the area with dental concerns; Sandra immediately made me feel comfortable and important. She was kind and patient from the first phone conversation to smoothly moving me through the entire front end experience. Jess was attentive and bubbly, and Dr. Emily Ruthven was calm, gentle, and very kind.
The whole experience was great for someone nervous in the dentists chair. You won’t regret choosing North Appleton Dentistry!
