Keep your teeth in top shape by scheduling regular checkups at Gunnerson Dental to maintain a healthy, vibrant smile.

If you have TMJ issues, you need to come here! All of the staff are very friendly, and Dr. Gunnerson is very knowledgeable. When I first came in, my jaw was locking all the time. Now, I have no problems at all!

They were so good with my daughter! We recently switched from a pediatric dentist so I was nervous it wasn’t going to go well. The hygienist was so kind and understanding and the doctor was hilarious. They were really open with showing me all the images and explaining everything so I didn’t have to worry about them making things up. If you have kids I highly recommend coming here!

Gunnerson has done such a great job taking care of my four kids! They have a great lobby and waiting area and they work so well with kids of all ages. My kids used to be afraid of the dentist, and Gunnerson has changed that. Thanks!

Tosha was super nice and helped Dr. Gunnerson do my filling. It was super fast and painless. I’ve been going here forever and it’s a great place

Allen Klin Mitchell

Great staff and very professional. Relaxing environment and always looking to make the experience the best it can. I can’t express my gratitude enough for how great they are.

Rick Holt

I’ve had bad experiences with dentists in the past (that’s a whole different story, lol), and finally went in to get some work done (a crown had come off, a different tooth had chipped pretty bad, and a few cavities), and I’m impressed!

I was on time for my appointments, and to my surprise, so were they! It’s extremely refreshing to go into a dentist/doctor office and see that they are on time 🙂. That alone is worth a star or two in my opinion!

I can’t actually speak for Dr Gunnerson, as I saw Dr Bradford – and he was excellent! He walked me through what they were doing as it went on, he was polite, professional, courteous, and did a great job on the dental work. I was in the hot seat for literally a few hours on back-to-back days, and aside from me paying my penance for ignoring problems too long (crown and chipped tooth that got an overlay – I don’t think getting those worked on could ever be considered ‘fun’ and I hope I never have to do it again), I couldn’t have asked for a better experience to actually fix the problems!

If you’re looking for a dental practice that does great work, treats you well, and is on time – look no further 👍. All of the staff there were nothing but top notch, and I’ll be going back for sure!

We had a great experience at Gunnerson Dental! The atmosphere is clean and professional and the staff is kind and welcoming. Dr. Bradford was wonderful! He has a great bedside manner making you feel comfortable, even for my kids who don’t like going to the dentist! He takes the time to explain things so you actually know what is going on and the best course to take care of any problems. We will definitely be returning patients!!!

Savannah Peterson

I have never liked going to the dentist but Gunnerson Dental does a great job at making me feel more comfortable and welcome. As a mother with young children it’s so stressful to try and find someone to watch my kids for dentist appointments, when I haven’t been able to find anyone the front desk staff at Gunnerson dental has been great and kept an eye on my kids while I got my work done. Their new dentist Dr. Bradford is absolutely fantastic. I know I’m in great hands and that he truly cares and is doing his best work always.

I am not exaggerating when I say I love this dental office. We drive over an hour round trip each time to see them, because they are worth it. They take a holistic, big picture approach and truly care about giving you the best treatment for your needs. Everyone is so kind and fun to talk to. And I don’t think I could ever find a better dental office. I’ve now seen them for TMJ therapy, regular dentistry, and invisalign.

Dr. Gunnerson is the best in the business. He takes great pride in his work and takes care of his patients. Great dentist and friend. I wouldn’t go anywhere or trust anyone else with my teeth.
