Welcome Home
Our Mission
At Cottage Grove Pediatric Dentistry, we're all about making dentistry safe, comfortable, and fun for children. Dr. O and our team embrace the latest in techniques and technology for our procedures, such as offering laser dentistry which can take away the need of using needles for fillings.
We fully embrace you as a parent! Your peace of mind is important to us, and we want to build trust with you and your child. Our goal is to build your child's confidence to be able to see their dentist and their other providers on their own. As we are building this trust and confidence, we want you and your child to feel right at home here, so feel free to always accompany your child for their appointments. The reliable, child-friendly dental home you’ve been seeking is here.
Dentistry with a Heart
Meet Dr. Ebose Okoruwa
Dr. O always knew he wanted to create a lasting impact on his community. Growing up in Iowa, he saw how much of an impact his parents had in his town, especially his mother who is a pediatrician. Watching her change the lives of families in their town, Dr. O knew he wanted to have the same impact.
He attended the University of Iowa for college and dental school, where he earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Biochemistry and a Doctorate in Dental Surgery. He then came up to Minneapolis right after dental school for his specialty training in pediatric dentistry at the University of Minnesota. Growing up, his parents had instilled in him the values of teamwork, being the example, and caring. These values have shaped Dr. O on his path of becoming a healthcare provider. As your pediatric dentist, he is dedicated to providing personalized, compassionate, and high-quality care to his patients.
Starting this clinic has been a dream of his since going to college. He had always wanted to create a dental clinic for children of all ages that feels safe and welcoming. From his family to yours, he wants to welcome you to the practice.
