With extensive clinical experience and a calm, reassuring approach, Terri focuses on preventive care, periodontal health, and patient education, empowering individuals to take an active role in the long-term health of their smiles. She values open communication and takes pride in building trust with patients through clear explanations and consistent, high-quality care.

Terri is known for building strong, lasting relationships with her patients and for tailoring hygiene care to each individual’s needs. She places a strong emphasis on early detection, personalized home-care strategies, and consistent maintenance as the foundation for overall oral and systemic health. Her approach helps patients feel informed, comfortable, and confident throughout their dental care experience.

Originally from the Twin Cities area, Terri lives in Savage with her husband, Chris, and their dog, Blue. Their three children—Kylee, Brynn, and Carson—are now grown, and Terri enjoys staying connected with them while supporting their independent lives. Outside the office, she enjoys reading, golfing, skiing, and spending time outdoors. She also enjoys attending sporting events and family gatherings whenever possible.

Terri’s professionalism, warmth, and dedication to patient-centered care create a welcoming environment where patients feel respected, understood, and well supported at every visit.
