“I’ve been coming to Dr. Clavin for 7 years now. Dr. Clavin has done all variety of dental work for me he has done crowns, he has done cleanings, he has dealt with cavities, fillings. He is a very good dentist because of his manner. He’s kinda soft-spoken and he is very considerately caring about what he does, he takes his time he stops, he talks, he checks in to make sure that you’re doing ok and the work is what you want to do. What I like about him is the personal touch that he adds to the professional dentistry that he gives. Every-time he’s does something he makes sure that I’m feeling well with it, that its not painful, it makes me much more comfortable being here with him than somebody who you just pop in and they pull out or tooth or do something and kick you out the door. He’s got a very good kinda bedside manner for doing the work and making sure its equitable and working well. ” -Jonathan

“My name is Lenaya Peterson. I’ve been coming to Dr. Clavin for about a year now. Dr. Clavins done general teeth cleaning for me, accessed some problems I was having some pain in certain areas of my mouth and so Dr. Clavin helped fix those problems and directed me to some areas that I needed to get some services done also so that was helpful. Dr. Clavin’s staff they’re very friendly and I know he goes to conferences so he keeps up to date with what’s going on in the industry and as far as update technology. I felt very comfortable that he was on the cutting edge of what was going on in the industry. We attend the same church so we became friends and then it just seemed like a very natural process to start asking him to be our dentist for our entire family. I’m sure there are many like myself who have anxiety about seeing a dentist but those kind of issues are dealt with here. I just feel very comfortable in Dr. Clavin’s chair here.” Lenaya Peterson

“My name is Lee. I think I have been coming to Dr. Clavins office for almost 10 years. I’ve had a quite a few things done. I have periodontal issues there’ s a gap there between the enamel and the gum line where the root surface is exposed so I’ve had a lot of little cavities there but we’ve have a lot of other fun stuff we’ve done too. Dentistry has changed a lot since I was a little kid we didn’t get Novocain or anything like that, now its something else I’m sure, they just drilled on us. Its always been great. I’m always relaxed when I’m here, never in much pain at all. We’ve always had good success working together with the insurance companies and dealing with fixing up the teeth and keeping them in good shape. ” – Lee

“My name is Eric. My wife goes here. She recommended him and I had a great visit. It was great. They had the ultrasonic cleaning tool that was very nice. Its a big difference between the usual picks and axes they use.”

Eric is a patient at my experienced dental office located in the Twin Cities. If you are located in Minneapolis or St. Paul and would like to find out more about me please contact our office today.

Porcelain Veneers

Your smile is one of the first things people notice about you. When your smile has imperfections it makes it harder to have the greatest self confidence you can have. Not only can a smile makeover make you more confident but it can make you appear younger and more full of life. Porcelain veneers could be the way for you to get the perfect smile that you have always dreamed of.

Veneers resist staining and help your smile appear full and bright.

They can fix gaps, chipped teeth, overlapping, shading problems, and other conditions. Porcelain veneers can be placed on as many of our patients teeth as necessary, not just the front teeth. We offer payment plans and credit options so that our patients can have as many options available to them as possible. Please contact Dr. Tim Clavin at his Saint Paul Cosmetic Dentist Office today to find out more about your options.

When performing a smile makeover we take many things into consideration like skin tone, hair color, teeth shape, teeth width, gum tissue, facial appearance, and lips among other things. Nature doesn’t give us a customized smile but the innovations in cosmetic dentistry can.

When thinking about a smile makeover you can think about changing the color of your teeth, fixing missing teeth, creating a fuller smile, fixing alignment and spacing issues, and fixing chipped and cracked teeth.

If you would like to improve your smile contact Dr. Tim Clavin at his Minneapolis Cosmetic Dental Office today. We offer free consultations and can even show you what your new smile could potentially look like. We want to work with you so that you love your smile.

Here is a short video with me describing what is involved in a smile makeover at Our Downtown Minneapolis Cosmetic Dentistry Office.
