Services
Dr. McConnell graduated from the University of Iowa in 1986 and moved to Wisconsin with her husband. She is a member of the American Dental Association and regularly participates in continuing education to stay current with new dental trends. Her mission is to put you at ease while providing you with comfortable dental care.
Artistic Smiles Dentistry takes a great deal of pride in making every patient feel at home by offering warm wax hand therapy, headphones, and laughing gas (nitrous oxide), during treatment. Our staff explains any dental procedure with high-tech products such as CEREC, digital x-rays, cameras that take TV-size pictures of your teeth, and lasers that read decay.
Take care of your teeth with dental health services from Artistic Smiles Dentistry in Appleton, Wisconsin. With a variety of effective techniques, our caring staff keeps your smile looking its very best. Protect your child's permanent molars with dentist-recommended sealants. One set of four molars erupts at about six years of age, and a second set of four at about 12 years of age.
Have your teeth whitened in one hour! Professional strength whitening gel is applied and rinsed off for a dramatic solution to darkened teeth. We include custom take-home trays for easy touch-up for years to come. This is another effective way to whiten your teeth, although you will play more of a role in completing it.
Artistic Smiles Dentistry uses surgical-grade cloth sterilization wraps for instruments and patient drapes, which is the same material that hospitals use. This improvement has reduced our waste by as much as 70%. Our office installed a heavy metal separator to prevent introducing mercury and other heavy metals into the water system more than five years ago.

This place is the magical unicorn of dentists' offices!! I first came at the recommendation of a friend. I've had two appointments here so far and from the second I made my first appointment, the experience has been a million times more exceptional than my experiences with other dentists. First of all, everyone who works here is SO NICE! They are thorough and mindful of details in a way I'd never experienced before. Dr. McConnell, herself (not a robot!), reached out the day before my first appointment to introduce herself and confirm the appointment. The person at the desk when I walked in for

Was in for my 6mo Hyg visit with Amanda and loved every minute of her professional care she gave me! Dr. Pat followed with a great exam and smoothed a tooth that I had chipped on a cherry pit😞Thank goodness I didn’t do more damage! Got to see the rest of the team😊 The close and scheduling of next visit on my way out was effortless thanks to Brittany and her team! Looking forward to my next visit😁

Dr Nguyen and ALL the staff are amazing, full of genuine care, very sincere, and I was really blown away by how they prioritized my comfort in every way. The emotional support and care I got from EVERYONE was unexpected and makes me not just confident and secure in returning for more work, but actually excited to see them again and continue to share this journey of restoring my oral health. I recommend them with all my heart!

This was the best dental experience I have ever had. The staff was amazing. The dentist was the nicest you will ever meet. Very patient and knowledgeable. He was able to fix my broken tooth in one day. A tooth that I thought was unsaveable. He was very gentle and talked me through every step. The staff was very plesant with my daughter even though she wasnt recieving service that day they gave her a toy for her good behaviour. Already book another appointment for myself and my 8 year old daughter a cleaning. Plus my husband will be setting an appointment soon. Very nice experience. You wont be

This has been my first experience in any health care setting where the staff asked things about myself to get to know me. Everyone was super friendly and the environment felt more personal than business. I could not recommend this office enough for anyone looking for great dental care. Dr. Nguyen took the time to explain things in detail and never gave the impression he was rushed or didn't have time, plus just a really cool guy all around! Thanks to all the staff for being such great people.

Left my previous dental office to come here. My first and second experience. Dr. Nguyen was excellent in repairing a tooth I had that was fractured and needed a crown, followed by a couple cavities. His knowledge shows as he is very proficient and professional in his craft, best dentist I've had! And never experienced any pain during the procedures. Emily was the dental assistant and she was so pleasant and professional in her work and just made me feel comfortable the entire time. My teeth cleaning was scheduled and Amanda was my dental hygienist. Loved her attitude and professionalism! Quick

FANTASTIC experience. I had 5 canker sores I needed taken care of and was turned down by 6 other offices in the area because I was not an established patient. Being new to the area I had not found a dentist yet. Dr. Nguyen and team were great about fitting me in so I could talk and eat comfortably again. THANK YOU ARTISTIC SMILES TEAM!

I cannot express enough what a wonderful experience I had yesterday. I hated going to the dentist and was so scared. Everyone there was so welcoming and kind and my dentist was the best I've had. he made sure I was always comfortable and explained every step. I plan to make this my dentist for the years to come

Dr. McConnell understands my fear of the dentist. She helped me with prescribing the right medication to relax me before my procedure which makes the anesthetic work so much better. Another wonderful thing she does is make crowns in the office that fit perfectly the first time and you are done in two hours leaving with all the work done! Today I celebrate Dr. McConnell!
