Lots of things to ❤️ at Eggert Family Dentistry this month!

Dear Valued Patients and Friends,

Happy February! As we head further into this New Year, we want to assure you our commitment to you is as strong as ever! Everyone has been feeling the on-going effects of the COVID pandemic and it has been hard. We will continue to work diligently to meet your needs while keeping you safe. We have great information on our COVID-19 page, please check it out if you haven't visited in awhile.

We are excited to report that our team is going through the COVID vaccination process. We know it has been difficult to have to wait in your cars and in the hallway and we thank you for your continued patience. We look forward to the future as more of you are also able to be vaccinated and we can again start to "share space." Until then, we will continue COVID protocols already established.

Our team is doing a lot to stay positive in these tiring times. Scroll down to see what they all shared when asked "What are you doing to stay positive during the ongoing COVID pandemic?" Please engage with us on Facebook and share what you are doing too!

On another positive note, we are running a Zoom promotion special this month to share the LOVE we have for our patients. Get all the details below.

Plus, if you or any member of your family suffers from jaw pain or has wondered if they have a TMJ disorder, we've got some information below that you won't want to miss.

As always, we look forward to seeing you soon. Call our office to schedule your winter or early spring recare visit. In the meantime, may you stay happy, healthy, and safe!

With Best Regards,

Drs. Elizabeth and Jeff Eggert

and the Eggert Family Dentistry Team

Carly is excited to gain new experiences and skills through her position with Eggert Family Dentistry. In her free time, Carly enjoys spending time with her family and friends, staying active and watching the Bachelor.

“I feel so grateful to be part of the Eggert Family Dentistry team, I immediately felt like part of the family. Not only have I developed great relationships with my coworkers, but I feel so lucky to be able to contribute to our patients' overall health!”

Carolina joined our tremendous dental assisting team in October. She is a new dental assistant graduate from Century College and is excited because soon she should be fully licensed!

Carolina now lives in Brooklyn Park and went to Park Center High School, but grew up in a little country in Europe called Moldova. She moved to the United States when she was 5 years old. She loves to travel, swim, shop at the mall, and spend time with her family.

"I went into the dental field because I always found teeth fascinating! I am excited to be working at Eggert Family Dentistry because I wanted to work in a family friendly environment and Eggert Family Dentistry is just that!"
