The staff and Dr O are really great! We have been going to them for years and have always felt comfortable and cared about while there. They are the absolute best with our son with special needs! They go above and beyond to make sure his experience is awesome! I highly recommend Riversbend family Dentist!

They have a hometown feel because that’s who they are.. Dr. Otis is straightforward and super professional but has a softer side like a grandfather. Dr. Otis takes his time to do it right. All of the hygienists are extremely pleasant and take the time to take care of your teeth, but I recommend Michelle. They don’t rip on you for not flossing or if you have a tooth problem they want to fix it. I’ve had quite a bit of work done here and they are awesome. I would recommend this place to anybody!! Skip the big box dentist and give Rivers Bend a try!! But don’t take my next appointment time. : )

My entire family and I have been going to Rivers Bend Family Dental for over 15 years! The dentist and staff are always so kind, bright, and positive. The office has a relaxing cozy cabin feel which makes going to the dentist not feel as stressful. We absolutely love it here & have complete trust in Dr. O!
Why I Should Find A Local Dentist Near Me
If unsure about making the switch in dentists here are some considerations to think about:
If you’ve just moved to the area it’s a great time to ask your local neighbors who they see or recommend in the area. A big win if they are located conveniently where you go dining, grocery shopping and run errands in your day to day.
A great place to start is by reading online reviews. Google, Nextdoor, Yelp are all great resources. What many of your peers say can give you a clue of the overall experience given by the practice. Pick up the phone and call the office. See how pleasant the conversation is. Was it easy to make an appointment? Do their hours work conveniently with yours?
What Can I Expect With A New Patient Appointment?
Establishing a relationship with a new dental office can feel like a lot of unknowns. Let’s shed a little light on how we do it here at the Rivers Bend!
- When you call, email or use the online scheduler, we will make a special note that this is your first time to our practice. To help give you a faster first time check in process, please feel free to fill out the forms online (here). We welcome any special requests you may have, just let us know, and we will try our best to accommodate your needs.
- Arrive 10 minutes so you can take a deep breathe and relax in our beautiful North Woods Cabin Retreat Themed waiting room. In the mean time, we will make sure all your information you filled earlier is correct in our systems. Also don’t forget the insurance card if you do have one.
- Come back with one of our wonderful hygienist where they’ll see what it is that’s bringing you into the office that day. Whether for something routine or more specific, we try to tailor the appointment to your needs for that day. We want to get to know you and help serve you best.
- Your doctor will be in to address any concerns you may have and do a thorough exam. If there are any findings, we will let you know and give you an estimate so there are no surprises.
- If it’s been not too long since your last appointment and it may be more routine, a refreshing cleaning will be given by your hygienist.
- Take home a goodie bag and let everyone see how spic and sparkly your newly cleaned teeth look 🙂
