- Dental Examination
- Teeth Cleaning"The most gentle cleaning I've ever had thanks to Lynette, and a completely pain-free cavity filling! Everyone is so friendly too, I highly recommend!"
- Fluoride TreatmentYour child should visit the dentist every six months for regular dental cleanings and checkups. We recommend fluoride treatments twice a year along with cleanings to keep teeth their strongest. Tooth sealants are also recommended because they “seal” the deep grooves in your child’s teeth, preventing decay from forming in these hard-to-reach areas. Sealants last for several years, but will be monitored at your child's regular checkups.
- Dental SealantsAsk your dentist about dental sealants, protective plastic coatings that can be applied to the chewing surfaces of the back teeth where decay often starts.
- VeneersYou no longer need to hide your smile because of gaps, chips, stains, or misshapen teeth. With veneers, you can easily correct your teeth’s imperfections to help you have a more confident, beautiful smile. Veneers are natural in appearance and are a perfect option for patients wanting to make minor adjustments to the look and feel of their smile.
- CrownsCrowns are a cosmetic restoration used to strengthen a tooth or improve its shape. Crowns are most often used for teeth that are broken, worn, or partially destroyed by tooth decay.
- Bridges
- Root Canal TreatmentConventional bridges and dentures are not fixed to the bone, and can therefore be unstable. This can make it difficult to eat or smile with confidence. Implants not only look more natural, but feel and act more like normal teeth, with a stronger biting force. And because they don't directly rely on neighboring teeth for support, implants don't compromise the health of your natural teeth. In fact, bridges are only expected to last seven to ten years, even less with root canals, whereas implants will typically last a lifetime.
- DenturesDentistry is all about smiles, and having a confident, healthy, beautiful smile is important even for patients wearing dentures. Our practice provides personalized denture services that meet the needs and comfort levels of our patients. All of our patients are unique and we create one-of-a-kind dentures that feel good and look natural.
- Dental ImplantsMinnesota Native and St John’s University Alumnus, Dr. Kevin Tri graduated from Creighton University School of Dentistry in 1990. A life-long student, he attends hundreds of hours of post-graduate education taught by some of the best cosmetic and implant dentists in the world as well as advanced studies in all other disciplines of dentistry. Completing his first formal training in implants and implant prosthetics nearly 25 years ago, Dr. Tri has built a reputation based on his uncompromising demand for excellence, meticulous attention to detail and a gentle, warm, and caring demeanor.
- Oral Surgery
- Bone GraftingAutogenous Bone Grafting: Occasionally, the ideal areas for dental implants do not have sufficient bone quantity to support the implants. In these cases, it is often necessary to “borrow” bone from another area of your mouth and graft it into the deficient area. Often, the area of choice is from the chin or in the back of the jaw where your wisdom teeth used to be.
- Teeth WhiteningThere are many products and techniques available for patients who want to achieve a brighter smile, and with so many options available, it can be difficult to choose the method that is right for you. The best way to begin any teeth-whitening regimen is to schedule an appointment and talk to your doctor about the differences between in-office professional whitening and at-home whitening.

- General DentistryCurrently, Dr. Tri has completed all academic and clinical requirements in the post-graduate certification in Esthetic Dentistry. This program attracts dentists from all over the world. It is the only such certification taught by an accredited dental school in the United States. Dr. Kevin Tri is currently finishing his research into CAD CAM digital technology and final paper, the final requirements for full certification in the Post Graduate Esthetic Continuum at the University of Minnesota Dental School. Only a handful of dentists have achieved this level of education since the inception of the program. At the same time, Dr. Tri has completed training in Boston and Miami learning the newest techniques in bone grafting and implant surgeries. He became a Fellow of the American Academy of General Dentistry after hundreds of hours of post-graduate studies. Only a few dentists each year receive these prestigious accolades.
