Your smile’s health starts here
General Dentistry in Roseville, MN
Welcome to a Different Kind of Dental Visit
Let’s be honest—no one looks forward to going to the dentist. But at Bates Dental Care, we’re here to change that. When you walk through our doors, you’re not just another appointment on the schedule. You’re a real person with questions, goals, maybe even a little anxiety and we’re here to help with all of it.
Whether it’s time for your six-month cleaning or you’ve got a tooth that’s been bothering you, we’ll take great care of you without the pressure or the rush.


What Do We Mean by “General Dentistry”?
Basically, this is your all-in-one stop for everyday dental care. Cleanings, exams, X-rays, fillings, you name it. We take care of the essentials so your teeth stay healthy, your smile stays strong, and you stay out of the dental emergency zone.
Not sure what you need? No worries. That’s what we’re here for. We’ll walk you through it.
What’s Included in General Dentistry?
At Bates Dental Care, general dentistry isn’t just about cleanings, it’s about giving you the care you need when you need it most. Whether it’s a routine checkup or something a bit more urgent, we’re here with experienced hands and a calm, supportive approach.
Exams & X-Rays
Regular dental checkups are the best way to keep your smile healthy. We use digital X-rays and gentle exams to catch small issues before they become big ones.
Tooth Extractions
Sometimes a tooth just needs to go and when that’s the case, we make the process as quick and comfortable as possible. We’ll talk you through your options and help you plan for what’s next.
Pediatric Dentistry
Little smiles need big care—and we’re here to make every visit positive, gentle, and stress-free. From first checkups to cavity protection, we focus on building healthy habits and happy dental experiences from the start.
Emergency Dental Care
Toothache? Chipped tooth? Sudden swelling? Don’t wait it out. We make room in our schedule for same-day emergency care so you can feel better, faster.

General Dentistry FAQs
Have questions before you visit? You’re not alone. Here are some of the most common things patients ask us—we’re all about keeping things clear, simple, and stress-free.
Do I really need to come in every 6 months?
Yes, those regular checkups help us catch issues early, prevent cavities, and keep your gums healthy. It’s way easier (and cheaper) than waiting for something to hurt.
Are cleanings uncomfortable?
Not at Bates Dental Care. We’re gentle, we explain everything as we go, and we’ll always check in to make sure you’re comfortable.
What if I haven’t been to the dentist in years?
No judgment here, really. Life gets busy, and we get it. We’ll meet you where you are and help you get back on track, step by step.
Do you offer dental care for kids?
We sure do! We love seeing kids and helping them build positive dental habits early. Our team makes visits fun and stress-free for little ones (and parents).
Will I need X-rays at every visit?
Not necessarily. We take digital x-rays only when needed to get a clear picture of your oral health. They’re quick, safe, and low-radiation.
Do you take insurance or offer payment plans?
Yes! We accept most major dental insurance plans and have flexible options for patients without insurance. Just give us a call, we’ll walk you through it.
