There is no denying that straight teeth help give someone a terrific smile - but the benefits don't just end there. When your teeth and jaw are in proper alignment, you are less likely to develop tooth decay, gum disease, and issues such as temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorder.

At Gentle Dental Care, we take pride in helping children and adults in the Menomonie, Durand, Eau Claire, Baldwin, Colfax, and surrounding WI communities develop healthier smiles through orthodontic options such as SureSmile.
Your smile is one of your most noticeable features - in addition to communicating to others that you are happy, healthy, and full of vitality, having a great smile can be a critical component of your own self-confidence and the way you feel about it can have ripple effects on all aspects of your life.
If you have ever gotten a traditional crown or bridge, you know that the process typically involves multiple visits to the dentist, dental impressions that are messy and uncomfortable, and needing to worry about losing a temporary crown while you wait for your final restoration to be made.

With CEREC technology at Gentle Dental Care in Menomonie and Durand, WI, we take the hassle out of dental restorations, providing same-day dental crowns and bridges that have a precise fit, natural-looking appearance, and durable, long-lasting results.Unlike traditional dental crowns, which use physical impressions of your teeth that are then shipped to an outside laboratory where your restoration is made, CEREC technology enables Drs.

I have visited Gentle Dental twice in the past two months. One for a new patient visit and cleaning and the second visit for some fillings. I had an extremely professional experience at both the Durand and Menomonie offices. I would highly recommend Gentle Dental to everyone!!

This is my third year with Gentle Dental in Menomonie and I have had nothing but very good experiences with them. The staff is very professional and friendly; Kendra, the office manager is a magician. I had some very bad experiences as a kid with a dentist so I am always weary of them, but this office soothed my fears. I am much more confident with my smile since being a client with them. I was very impressed that they can create a crown right there on the premises. I would, and do, recommend them to others.

I have never been disappointed with the care, service and compassion of Dr. Andre and her staff. They are diligent and will not let you go home without total satisfaction. I am thrilled to have a place to go that dedicates themselves to nontoxic mercury-free fillings as nintoxic alternatives are important to me and my health.

Excellent!!!! Had two crowns done today. Amazingly seamless and painless experience. Dr Andre and her assistant, Janessa, were superb. I even got to watch my crown being made right in the office. In less than 2.5 hrs both crowns done in one visit. Thanks!!

Dr. Andre and DH Brittany did a terrific job today (as always). Both were very good with their recommendations for future treatment for me and my wife using reasonable and common sense approaches. Thank you for the discussion today!!

I’ve searched and travelled far to find a great dentist with a healthier, more natural approach and I finally found one here! My first visit was the best, most refreshing dental visit I’ve ever had. I can finally say I’m excited about going to the dentist without having to worry about avoiding Fluoride or Mercury! Thank you! ❤️
