Fantastic experience: All involved with my care were pleasant, attentive and professional. Dr. Porter and his assistant who worked on me were top notch and first in class. Dr. Porter explained the process, used examples and made me feel very comfortable. Both seemed to work in unison when working on me.
We value every piece of feedback we receive – thank you!

Fantastic experience: Pine Arbor Dental Care seemed ok on my first visit under the new dentist. My dentist did not introduce himself and was not as friendly as the dentist that brought me to Pine Arbor.(Dr Lisa Amundson, who I really liked) I have one more appt and will then decide about continuing at Pine Arbor.
We’ll be sure to share your feedback with our team. Thank you!

Fantastic experience: I’m a new patient and I can’t say enough nice things about the entire clinic!
Thank you for reviewing us! We love providing our patients with exceptional dental care and supportive, positive experiences. We truly appreciate it!
Negative experience: Horrible service! Not going back. They have 1 dentist and 1 hygienist and can’t find anyone to work there. They are rushed, say you need all this work done, charge more than they should, and do crappy work. Had to have a crown done and the temporary tooth fell off on my way home and then I was supposed to be scheduled to get the crown seated and I wasn’t scheduled for the time on my card that she gave me and now the crown has become loose and there is something wrong with it. Now I’m having to pay more money to go elsewhere to get it fixed on top of other charges that could have been avoided by the clinic and wasn’t. A grievance will be filed with my dental plan!
Thank you for your feedback. Our team is committed to providing excellent care for all patients. Please call us at 651-459-3514, and a member of our team will be happy to speak with you. Thank you.

Fantastic experience: Great care an
Fantastic experience: Gentle and affordable for me. Dr Porter and staff always make me feel relaxed. I highly recommend Pine Arbor Dental.
Fantastic experience: Always a great experience! Great staff! Easy location. It’s about as comfortable you can get for laying in a chair with somebody digging around in your mouth
This feedback is so valuable to us. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!
Negative experience: Dr. Todd Porter mansplains and exaggerates the amount of work that needs to be done. He is the worst and we will not be going back to him again. He is new at this practice and it took one visit to figure out his MO. He treated me like I am dumb. My kids saw him twice and both times he told me they had 5+ cavities but before he came to the practice they only had 1 or 2 each time. My kids don’t have great teeth. He told me I needed a crown and he wouldn’t give me a teeth whitening kit until I got the crown. I go to the dentist every six months and the previous dentist never said anything about me needing a crown. So in 6 magical months, I needed a crown and between my 3 kids they had 12 cavities. I would love to know what practice spit him out and how he ended up at Pine Arbor.
Fantastic experience: We come back to specifically see Dr. Porter. We love the straight forward approach and the care that all of the staff provide for us. They also are very knowledgeable about how to care for our teeth outside of our time in the office as we are aging and the importance of more than just flossing.
Thank you for reviewing our office. We always strive to provide our patients with amazing care, so all feedback is extremely valuable to us.
Fantastic experience: Very pleasant employees have knowen Dr Porter for many years very pleasant person as a whole
This feedback means the world to us. Thank you!

Thanks so much!
Fantastic experience: Staff is always friendly and nice and ask if I have any concerns..I seen Lucy last time I was there she did a really good job
Thank you! Have a great day!
Fantastic experience: Staff is always professional, friendly and willing to take the time to answer my questions!
Fantastic experience: Asked around to see who liked their dentist, after my dentist of over 20 yrs retired. I broke a tooth and needed care fast. Dr Porter is who I was led to. And glad I was! Professional. Efficient. Explained the proceedure well and took care of my needs, beyond expectations! I am done looking ...I found my dental care Professional.
Thanks, we appreciate it so much!
Fantastic experience: Great care and communication. Highly recommend.
Thanks, we appreciate it so much!
Fantastic experience: My appointment went very well. Going through the transition of a new insurance carrier was so easy. Everybody was pleasant and very accommodating. The dental hygienist that I met was fantastic and the dentist herself explained to me after my cleaning. What issues I may have in the future. All in all the my visit was a five star.!
This feedback is so valuable to us. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!
Positive experience: The staff was friendly, courteous, knowledgable and professional. Minimal wait time and good background music. Jim
Thank you so much! Our team loves seeing these reviews!

Thank you for your honest feedback. We would love to speak with you directly regarding these concerns, and we are always open to partnering with you to find a solution. Please call us at 651-459-3514, and a member of our team will be happy to speak with you. Thank you.
Negative experience: I’m disappointed to say this was not a comfortable experience. The dentist seemed very rushed and focused on getting the work done quickly, which made the appointment feel sloppy and stressful rather than careful and attentive. The pace of the visit made me uncomfortable, and at one point things felt so rushed that her assistant was splashed with water while suctioning, which was awkward and concerning. Instead of showing concern or apologizing, the dentist laughed and commented that it would make a “perfect meme,” which made me feel even more uncomfortable and genuinely bad for the assistant. I was told my cleaning could not be done because it was “too much” and there wasn’t enough time or the proper tools, which was confusing and frustrating—especially since my appointment was specifically scheduled for fillings and preparation for a crown. I was also questioned about not having visited in a year, and when I explained that scheduling can be difficult as a working parent, the response about leaving children in daycare felt dismissive and unnecessary. As a mother, it was particularly disheartening to feel shamed rather than supported for how difficult it can be to prioritize your own healthcare when your children come first. I ultimately left with my medical records and will be finding another provider to complete my crown. I do want to note that the receptionist was very sweet and kind, and the dental assistant was professional throughout the visit. I’ve seen another doctor at this office before who was kind and professional, which makes this experience especially disappointing. I couldn’t wait to leave and felt more stressed than cared for by the end of the visit.
Thank you for taking the time to provide your feedback. We cannot engage in patient-specific conversations online, but we welcome the opportunity to speak with you directly. Please call us at 651-459-3514, and we’d be happy to discuss the details of this review. Thank you.
Negative experience: Felt a little blindsided Dr. Amundson left, wish a heads up about her departure would have been sent out. New dentist is rough, pushed so hard on my tooth during exam the tool slipped and poked my tongue. He had awkward interaction and report with the hygienist. Almost felt a sense of talking down to me. Probably wasn’t intended that way, but the whole experience was enough to end my 15+yr tenure with the clinic. Will be moving on. Will miss the staff that treated my family for years.
We’re sorry to hear about this. We will be sure to take the details of this review back to our team. We would love to speak with you directly regarding these concerns, and we are always open to partnering with you to find a solution. Please call us at 651-459-3514, and we’d be happy to resolve these concerns offline. Thank you.
Fantastic experience: Excellent staff from reception, Hygenist and Dentist!

Thank you. We are dedicated to providing our patients with high-quality dental care, so this review means a lot to our team!
Negative experience: I really liked the dentist & hygienist I had the first time. This time was close to a nightmare. The hygienist has to be fresh out of school, kept hitting the same sensitive spot & when I asked if I could hold the suction in my hand instead of having it constantly in my mouth she told me that’s not how they teach you in school. She struggled to remember how to hold the cleaning instruments. The dentist came in with a light on his head so I could only see his silhouette. He was talking a mile a minute to the hygienist, barely looked in my mouth & then said ‘I’m Dr. Porter by the way.’ Then he left. I was told I have a cavity & no one asked if I had any questions. I’ve been told the female dentist I saw the first time is no longer there so I probably won’t be back
Thank you! We really appreciate the feedback.
Fantastic experience: Very friendly and efficient staff. My procedure was done with care for my comfort and without any problems. The dentist and assistant are top notch.
Fantastic experience: I love going here. I’ve only had 4 dentists and this is my favorite one. I would highly recommend them to my family and friends.
Fantastic experience: Very impressed with the professionals that work with the patients. My hygienist was wonder and had a great exam with Dr Porter. I highly advise Pine Arbor Dental Care.
Thanks so much!
Fantastic experience: First time there. Nikki was great and personable. Dr. Admundson was great too. Glad I found this new dental office. Much nicer and more caring than the large conglomerate that I used to go to.
Thank you!
Fantastic experience: I love this Family Dentistry. They are detailed not only with our families teeth but they show the kind of care I desire by asking before they do anything. Such as X-rays, fluoride treatments, and fillings. They also double check with our insurance before we come so they are ready to have those detailed conversations with us. They are extremely respectful… without judgments.
Fantastic experience: I honesty love going to the dentist. Most of my life I've hated going to the dentist but Pine Arbor is different. Dr Amundson and her entire staff are amazing. I feel comfortable and know they care about me as a person. I can't speak highly enough about them. My wife and two children also love it there. My kids are spoiled, they dont know how great they have it there.
Thank you! We really appreciate you taking the time to leave this review.
Fantastic experience: It has been a while since I have been to the dentist and Pine Arbor Dental Care was amazing. Katie, the hygienist, was awesome, gentle and extremely personable. Dr. Porter was just as awesome. Definitely my new dentist.
Thanks so much!
Fantastic experience: Great job! Efficient and very considerate! Filled a chipped tooth during cleaning and all is right again. The filling is very smooth and feels natural.
Fantastic experience: I needed work done on my dental plates and found that Pine Arbor Dental was included in my insurance plan. I was treated with respect, care and understanding of my situation. The repaired plates were returned the following day in better condition than they were. Lisa, my new dentist, receptionist, hygentist were all wonderful and very knowledgeable about my needs. I had a very good experience.
Thanks! We love our patients!

Thank you for your review.
Fantastic experience: I’ve been going to Pine Arbor, formerly Amundson, Dental Care, for several years, and they really do an outstanding job. I feel pretty at ease there and that they know me. On my last visit, I was impressed by the memory of the person working on my teeth with her follow-up on the whitening strips and observation. They do a diligent job. I applaud their care! Also, everyone is nice, and I hardly ever have to wait; the few times I have waited, I didn’t do so for long.
