Our comment from Best Dentists Club about The Hartford Dental Group:
A Family Tradition of Trust and Compassionate Care
The Hartford Dental Group has established itself as a cornerstone of dental health in Wisconsin for over five decades. Since 1972, led by Dr. Jacob Schlindwein and Dr. Kathryn Davies, the practice has evolved into a trusted "home" for multiple generations of patients in Hartford and surrounding areas. Their approach goes beyond clinical procedures, focusing on creating a dignified and respectful environment where every visitor feels like family. This long-standing commitment is evident in the loyalty of patients who often travel significant distances or continue their care across generations.
Creating a Stress-Free Experience for All Ages
One of the most frequently praised aspects of the clinic is its ability to transform dental visits into positive experiences, particularly for those with anxiety. Patients consistently highlight the gentle and patient demeanor of the doctors and staff, noting that complex procedures, including implants and extractions, are performed with minimal discomfort. The team is adept at easing the nerves of both young children and adults, with many reviews mentioning how the staff’s kindness turns fear into confidence. Features such as watching Netflix during treatment and extra care with water temperature further enhance the comfort level, ensuring that even the most apprehensive patients leave feeling relaxed and cared for.
Comprehensive Dental Services with Transparency
The clinic offers a wide array of treatments under one roof, from routine preventive care and hygiene to advanced restorative work like crowns, veneers, and implants. Patients value the thoroughness of the examinations and the honesty of the treatment plans. A standout feature noted by many is the financial transparency; the team provides clear cost estimates and explains insurance coverage before any procedure begins, allowing for easy financial planning. This integrity extends to their advice, with patients appreciating that the dentists recommend only necessary treatments, avoiding unnecessary upsells.
Efficiency and Emergency Accessibility
Despite its reputation and high volume of satisfied patients, The Hartford Dental Group manages to maintain high operational standards. Reviews frequently commend the staff’s organization and the seamless teamwork between dentists, assistants, and hygienists. Emergency cases are often addressed with impressive speed, with many patients reporting same-day or next-day appointments for urgent issues. Whether it is a broken tooth, a sudden pain, or a simple adjustment, the group ensures that patients receive timely and effective care without compromising on quality or the warm, personable service they are known for.

Fantastic experience: I recently had crowns done here as my final step of a long dental journey and I couldn’t be happier with the results! They look completely natural and blend in perfectly with my other teeth. They fit me in on short notice multiple times and I’m so grateful for their efforts and understanding through it all. Dr. Davies and the entire staff were professional, friendly, and made me feel comfortable throughout the whole process. I greatly recommend The Hartford Dental Group!
Fantastic experience: Doctor Davies and her staff are top notch and the client service and attention to detail is the best I ever had!

Fantastic experience: This is the second time Dr Davies and her team worked me in for an emergency. They are all so nice and caring!
Fantastic experience: I recently broke an upper wisdom tooth and went in to have it examined so as to decide how to repair it. Dr Davies and her assistant Robin gave me options but we agreed the best would be to extract it. I expected to leave and make an appointment at an oral surgeon. That was not necessary. They took care of the extraction right then and there. It was done expertly with very minimal pain. I was out of the chair and dental office in under an hour. I have been going to this dental practice and have worked with both Dr Davies and Robin for nearly 25 years, and couldn’t be happier. I felt as if I was cared for by friends and I knew I was in great hands. Today was just another example of excellent professionalism.
Fantastic experience: This is a great dental office! I've been going there a full year now and I am very happy with the 2 hygienists I've worked with, and my new Dentist!!!! Thanks for having me!!

Fantastic experience: Dr Jacob S. was very thorough and explained what he thought was happening with my teeth. I appreciated his honesty and he had a plan of attack. Everyone was very nice and I loved that the consultation after appointment showed me what was covered by insurance and what was my responsibility. I will be proceeding with the plan Dr Jacob laid out for me. Very grateful.
Thank you so much for your kind words, Cynthia. We really appreciate you taking the time out to share your experience with us.

Fantastic experience: When I had a dental emergency they saw me within 12 hours. Excellent staff and Doctors. I also had an implant done recently. I was absolutely shocked that it never hurt during and especially after the procedure. It was easier than getting a cavity filled. 100% no pain at all. If you are hesitant or afraid of the procedure, I promise you will not feel a thing. Dr. Jacob Schlindwein is an exceptional doctor.

The staff there make you feel comfortable and are attentive to questions and concerns. You can’t go wrong with Hartford Dental Group.
Fantastic experience: I drive 45 minutes to my old neighborhood twice per year just to have my care here. Dr Schlindwein is awesome! He managed to bond a front chipped tooth in a way that looks very natural and has managed to not break, which is a rarity. They made me a bleaching tray free as a new customer gift, and I also buy my refill bleach very affordably here. All the staff are very kind and professional. I’ll always support small business dentistry!
