“My name is Doctor Tim Clavin, my office is located Downtown Minneapolis in the medical arts building in the Nicollet Mall. I think dentistry has evolved, we were trained to tell our patients what they need and the patients would come to see us they have a wealth of knowledge available to them and they really tell us what they want. The kind of cosmetic dental procedures we perform is bemiring of teeth, cosmetic crowns, crowns that no longer have the metal substrate underneath them. We do a lot of things even with cosmetic dentures. We can provide teeth that are beautiful prosthetics or bemiring of teeth or simply brightening their smiles.
For me I view many of the patients as my friends, I mean, when they come in and I haven’t seen them for six months, four months or whatever, they are, I feel a friendship with them and I think patients can tell that.
People like to come to our office because we are small. We treat one person at a time and we listen to people, they tell us what they want and we help them. I the benefit of only seeing one person at time in my office is that patient actually gets time with the dentist. I know how thinks are in this world, the pressure on businesses and health care centers and in my office you actually get time with me and many patients love that.”

Some Pictures from my Family and Office

“Glass crowns, all ceramic crowns that is something thats new. We haven’t had that in the past. These crowns can be placed in the front teeth, and now they can even be placed in the back. Which is a lot different from what we used to have. We would have to use metal and gold crowns. These crowns are made by machines and can be hand casted. They have no metal in them, so no blue line that most people are opposed to. Just natural restoration to have in our mouths.”

Some footage from our Dentistry From The Heart Event

Every year we do an event that is deeply close to me, and that event is called Dentistry From The Heart. Some of the greatest Minneapolis dentists and oral surgeons will come out to this event and work for free providing people with all kinds of imaginable dental care. The organization has helped over 30,000 patients and provided millions of dollars in free dental care.

Check out the many pictures we took there..
