Park Dental Partners Affiliates Named “Minnesota’s Best” for the Sixth Year in a Row

Park Dental Partners is pleased to announce the readers of the The Minnesota Star Tribune voted Park Dental and The Dental Specialists to the newspaper’s Minnesota’s Best list for a sixth consecutive year.

Park Dental was voted “Minnesota’s Best” once again, earning the Readers’ Choice Gold Award in the General Dentistry – Multiple Locations category for the sixth consecutive year. Park Dental has held the Readers’ Choice Gold Award ever since the Minnesota’s Best recognition program started in 2021.

“Congratulations to all our Park Dental doctors and team members for their continuing commitment to quality, patient-centered care,” said Dr. Chris Steele, Park Dental Partners Chief Clinical Officer, General Practices. “While we have internal processes to evaluate patient satisfaction like the Press Ganey patient survey, it’s rewarding to see Park Dental come out on top of a more organic poll like this. It’s truly impressive to see the organization recognized year after year, which speaks to the consistency and high standards accomplished by everyone. The work our doctors and team members do every day makes a significant impact on patients’ lives, and the Minnesota’s Best poll bears that out.”

The Dental Specialists earned the Readers’ Choice Gold Awards in the Oral Surgery and Orthodontics categories and the Silver Award in Pediatric Dentistry. The Dental Specialists Oral & Maxillofacial Surgeons have held the Readers’ Choice Gold Award for six consecutive years, an impressive accomplishment in the competitive specialty dentistry environment. The Dental Specialists Orthodontics and The Dental Specialists Pediatric Dentistry have also each earned a place on the Minnesota’s Best List for the past 6 years. Our Orthodontics team earned the Gold Award this year and in 2021 along with the Silver award from 2022 – 2025. The Dental Specialists Pediatric Dentistry has earned the Readers’ Choice Silver Award for six consecutive years.

“I couldn’t be more pleased for our doctors and team members to receive this recognition,” said Dr. Alan Law, Park Dental Partners Chief Clinical Officer, Specialty Practices. “And to receive top recognition in three incredibly competitive specialties is amazing. It’s so gratifying to see that our patients take the time to weigh in on this poll. I don’t think we could ask for a better acknowledgement of the job we’re doing than this strong vote of confidence in the care our doctors and team members provide.”

The newspaper polled readers on who they thought was “Minnesota’s Best.” Over one million votes were cast and more than 770 businesses were chosen in over 380 different categories, including professional services, restaurants, health and wellness. Voting took place earlier this year, with results published in a special section of The Minnesota Star Tribune Sunday, June 28 print edition and online at MinnesotasBest.com.
