ABOUT OUR OFFICE
In 2002, Dr. Mike Minten acquired the practice of Dr. Dan Schapira. Originally established in the mid 1970's, the practice has maintained the highest standard of dental care. In 2020 the practice moved into our current state-of-the-art facility with the latest in dental technology.
Fast forward to 2024, when Dr. Harl bought the practice from Dr. Minten. Our staff members continue to foster personal relationships with each patient and look forward to taking care of their dental needs and concerns. Our loyal and dedicated team treats patients with empathy and compassion. We know visiting the dentist can be stressful, and every effort is made to make you feel relaxed and comfortable. We look forward to welcoming you to our practice and showing you that a trip to the dentist can be a great experience!
What can I expect when I visit?
When you first visit Harl Family Dentistry, you’ll be greeted by our friendly office staff. You’ll be invited to sit down and relax as you fill out any new patient forms prior to your appointment.
You’ll then sit down with your hygienist to chat about your dental treatment, medical history, and why you’ve come to see the dentist. Next, is a thorough oral exam to help diagnose any oral health issues and develop a treatment plan that’s right for you—because seeing the full picture of your mouth can help us get it to its healthiest place. If anything needs extra attention, Dr. Harl will take the time to explain results and go over any rationale for treatment planning. This is an excellent opportunity to ask any questions or bring up any concerns you have.
OUR SERVICES
Routine Exams
Oral health is crucial in maintaining overall wellness. Regular dental check-ups and cleaning can help prevent a variety of dental problems.
Dental Hygiene
During your appointment, we will perform a prophylactic (preventative) dental cleaning to remove tartar buildup, stains, and plaque from hard-to-clean spaces.
Dental Fillings
Tooth decay can occur sometimes, and the only way to fix the damage is through dental fillings. We understand the importance of not just repairing cavities but doing so safely and effectively.

More than happy with all the work they did on my teeth. Been 30 years since tooth was pulled in military and I can finally say I got my choppers back. Thanks to Dr. Harl and his staff you all rock.

Where routine dentistry is concerned, I love the top-notch staff, that there are never any issues with billing insurance, and that the waiting area is pleasant. As far as dental concerns (basically anything involving discomfort... toothache, gum irritation etc.) you'll have a caring and competent dentist along with a knowledgeable staff of hygienists and assistants who work exceptionally well together rallying behind you.

I will always appreciate Dr. Minten's dental care for the past 15 years of my life. But I am very pleased with his choice of Dr. Nick Harl to take over his practice. My young son had a filling this week and Dr. Harl exhibited expertise in care of children alongside his assistant Heather. I love my dental hygienist, Ashley, and appreciate all the staff members at this clinic. My family has benefited from Dr. Harl in the past month of care. I recommend Dr. Harl for all age groups.
