Services
J&D Dental is located on the street level of the fabulous Roanoke building in downtown Minneapolis -across 7th street from the Northstar Center -- and we validate parking in the ramp! Exit on 6th street. After crossing Marquette take a right into The Northstar Center Parking Ramp. Exit on 4th street.
J & D Dental has a long and successful history in the Twin Cities. Founded in 1928 by the McEachran family, the practice was taken over by Dr. Jennifer Herbert (Johnson) in 1998. Since that time we've continued to grow - moving to our current location in Minneapolis' Roanoke building, and building a state-of-the-art dental facility for the highest level of service and patient care.
In compliance with most recent guidelines set by Centers for Disease Control (CDC) and Minnesota Department of Health (MDH), masks are still required in healthcare settings. Our clinic will continue to require masks be worn at all times while in the office unless actively receiving treatment. We ask all patients arrive to the clinic wearing their own masks.
Thank you for selecting our office for your dental care. To ensure that we properly diagnose your dental needs, your first visit with us will include a comprehensive exam, all necessary x-rays, and in most cases, a dental cleaning. Our clinical team will review the results of your exam and x-rays and discuss any necessary future treatment you may need.
We accept most insurance plans and will be happy to help you understand the coverage that you have. We will do our best to see that you receive your maximum insurance benefits for all covered services. However, please note that dental insurance is intended to cover some, but not all, of the cost of your care.

They always provides exceptional service. Today I had a temporary crown added, impressions taken, and in-house whitening. I had some type of local anesthetic (probably Lidocaine). After the initial injection they waited for the numbing to take before any additional injections were made, so I only felt one shot, how great is that.

Three things about my recent filling experience demonstrate why J&D Dental is a 5 star business. First, the dentist used just the right amount novocaine to get the job done without numbing half my face and gave it time to take effect before she started work, which demonstrated strong professional knowledge. Second, the dentist and assistant always let me know what they were about to do, so I wasn’t surprised by anything that was happening, which demonstrated great patient empathy. Third, the dentist and assistant had a good working partnership, and the dentist even asked the assistant for her

I had a very pleasant experience with Tucker and Dr. Herbert. Tucker was very patient and spend a lot of time explain what needs to be done and provides valuable advice, it's not easy to find a good dentist. I highly recommend Dr. Herbert and her staff.

Never in my life did I think I would find myself EXCITED to go to the dentist, but the staff at J&D Dental truly make it such a lovely experience each and every visit. Whether it is a routine cleaning or a same-day crown (no temporary crown, yay!), every visit is smooth and easy. Highly recommend to everyone I know!

I've been going to J and D for years, first referred by my brother. They are wonderful. Dr. Herbert is great, I have nothing but love for all of the hygienists, and Amanda at the front desk is a treat (and let's face it, probably functionally the most important person there). They have a gentle touch (one of the rooms has a massage chair, whaaat?) and make submittimg expenses to my benefits company as easy as possible (still a pain-not the dental office's fault). I've been working from home for the past year and a half, and likely will not be going back to my downtown office (ever?), but I keep

The entire team was great. From the second I walked in to the second I left, every person I met was so nice and friendly. I also felt that my hygienist (April) was extremely thorough with my cleaning and that the doctor was able to tell me what could cause me concern later on, even though I had no immediate issues.

I've been going to J&D Dental for over 20 years. Patricia and Amanda are excellent at client relations and keeping the front end running. The staff is wonderful, knowledgeable and do their jobs well. So let's talk about Dr. Herbert....her easy going yet no nonsense style relaxes even the most anxious patient...because she is patient! I am always impressed that not only is her practice spotlessly clean, but up to date and advanced on the latest technology. No old spitting sinks or uncomfortable chairs here! Instead you'll get good music, goggles and the latest in welcoming and

I had a chipped tooth that broke in two places with 24 hours. I left a message last night. At 8:00 Patricia (who recognized my voice on the recording) called and scheduled me at 11:30. I came in, had an X-ray and was thrilled to find out it was an old filling that had broken off and there was no major damage to the tooth or the root. I was numbed (offered dark glasses and headsets) and it was fixed in a timely manner and OMG it looks better than ever. They also were very aware that my bottom teeth were shifting and how it was affecting my bite so they adjusted the new filling to fit with my current

If you work downtown, this is an excellent place to have your regular checkups. The staff are very knowledgeable and helpful. After every appointment I walk away with the impression that they really care about their clients. Also, if you like, you can opt into text reminders for appointments.

They did a crown and a filling for me. The crown broke so they redid it and it hasn't broken again. The filling broke and they replaced it and it broke again this morning. I know sometimes these things happen, but 3 times in less than 5 years? Also it's Friday and for some reason they're not open Friday, so I'm just SOL for now.

I'm from the Chicago area and my tooth broke while in your fair city. Dr. Herbert fit me in without hesitation. Her staff were so special and truly know how to treat customers. I didn't have my insurance card with me but they didn't sweat over that....just email it when you get home. Dr. Herbert was knowledgeable and kind. After the exam they emailed my X-rays directly to my regular dentist. Every business could take some tips from this organization. Thanks again!

This is my regular dentist, which I chose on a recommendation -- and because I do all my professional services downtown where I work if at all possible. Never had an insurance problem with these folks and have done regular check-ups, fillings, gum work, etc. All female staff (or so it appears) if that matters to you. They have been understanding on reschedules and missed appointments. Definitely sticking with these folks.

In general I am terrified of dentists or doctors. I had a terrible dentist when I was a kid and had braces also, I just dread it.

I broke a tooth and made an apt. they took me in the next day. The hygienist and dentist were great. The entire time, the hygienist kept telling me exactly what was going on and what was going to happen. Everyone I have dealt with is both friendly and professional I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a dentist.

The place is very modern and doesn't smell like antiseptic. You can also listen to music with an ipod, which helped me a lot when he had

Let me start by saying... i have a love hate relationship with dentists in general. Seems like technology straight out of the dark ages... being poked and prodded with instruments that look like they came out of my grandfathers tool box. But you know, i do want to eat solid food as i get older- so i make that awful trek into the office on a regular basis.

As far as Dentists go... JD has been my fave. Been going here for several years, as they are right across the street from my office. Staff is awesome with a capital A. I do prefer Dr. Herbert... but that is just personality... as she is always

Same problem as Scott and Marina but I didn't have a Groupon.

I had gone to J&D because they are in my building at work. Biggest mistake I've ever made! After my normal visit they told me I had 8 cavitiies. I was shocked, because I've had 3 my whole life and I'm 30!

I told this to several people in my office and they all said they had a similar situation. I asked the receptionist at J&D to print off my records with the "cavitiies" listed. I waited my 6 months for my next cleaning and went to another dentist. Guess what no cavities. Matter of fact the Dentist

J&D also tried billing me for cavities that I didn't have. It was my first visit with them because they were convenient to my work. I was told I had 1 cavity that needed a filling. I was concerned because I didn't have a single 'watch spot' from my last cleaning at my regular dentist 6mo prior. Few days later I'm informed by Delta Insurance that they billed out/quoted for not 1 but 3 cavities!! Red flag, so I went back to my old dentist for a 2nd opinion and was told I have ZERO cavities!! It makes you wonder if they truly are competent at their profession, or if they

I had the same experience as Marina G. only to a greater extent. I bought a groupon for a cleaning and x-rays and was told I have 8 cavities (I've had only one cavity in all my life) and they quoted me around 1400 to have them filled. In typical fashion I put off doing anything about it for a little over a year. After deciding I couldn't put it off any longer I made an appointment (with a different dentist). He couldn't find my "cavities"! I explained to him that I'm supposed to have 8 cavities and he told me there was one spot, on the chewing surface of a molar

Very friendly and professional office. One of the things I like the best about J and D Dental is that my appointments always start on time, no sitting in the waiting room wondering what is taking so long. They are very focused on preventative care and they can find little problems and treat them before they become big problems. I have never liked going to the dentist but I can honestly say that J and D Dental makes it a much better experience by fixing little problems before they become big expensive problems.

J&D has very friendly dentists and hygienists, which is great if you haven't been to the dentist in awhile. But while I know dental insurance is old hat for dental staff who see a lot of patients and a lot of insurance cards, the help I received from the front desk at J&D was actually not at all helpful and rude.

I called ahead to Delta to see how much of my fillings would be covered, and the insurance said it would be partially covered. When I confirmed my appointment, I doubled checked with J&D staff that part of the filling would be covered and was told the filled would

I bought a groupon for a full dental cleaning, exam and x-rays for J & D Dental. The dentist found some cavities and estimated about $600 to take care of it. A few months later I visited another dentist to get my teeth cleaned and asked for x-rays to take a look at the cavities that I'm supposed to have. There was nothing! Such a rip-off! That's the only way for them to get their money back: make people pay for some fake cavities! DO NOT GO HERE!

I love my dentist! I bet you never heard that from anyone before. I go to J&D dental originally because it is right across the street from my office and they take Delta Dental. I have had nothing but a great experience with my dentist (Dr Herbert) and her partner.

One unique thing is the staff is entirely female. And as my coworker stated you want a female dentist cause her hands are smaller than a man's.

The waiting room is clean and welcoming as are the examine rooms. And they even play good tunes.

I recommend them to my coworkers (many have gone and now like going to
