Family Dental Care for the Community We Love

As a locally owned and operated dental practice, we know the importance of community. Since 1981, Northern Maine Dental has provided families from Caribou, ME, and across Aroostook County with comprehensive, gentle dental services. From our beginning, it has been our goal to be different than a standard dental office — we truly treat each patient like a family member.

At Our Practice,
“We’re All Family Here”

Our dentists strive to take the intimidation out of dentistry. Each part of our practice is designed to be welcoming to patients of every age. We will help you explore your needs for your smile and help you set goals to improve your oral health. Providing you and your loved ones with comprehensive dental care in a comforting setting is our passion.

Caring for
Your Whole Smile

From routine cleanings and checkups to restorative care including fillings, bonding, crowns and bridges, you can count on our practice to help you maintain and improve your smile. To ensure you receive modern, effective care, we utilize the latest dental technology, including CEREC crowns and Solea laser dentistry.

Community Matters to Us

Our dentists are Aroostook County natives and are proud to serve generations of families from the community they grew up in. Throughout the years, we have built a reputation for compassionate services — we have patients that have moved as far away as southern Florida who come “home” for their dental care!

We are passionate about helping our patients improve their oral health, while providing them with the care and resources they need to understand their treatment options. Our excellent team of 6 hygienists have over 175 years of combined experience and provide techniques targeted to each patient’s individual needs.​ Our welcoming administrative staff is always ready to greet you with a comforting smile to assist you with all of your scheduling and financial needs.

Frequently Asked Questions

What preventive dental services are available at Northern Maine Dental in Caribou, ME?

We offer comprehensive preventive dental services, including regular exams, digital X-rays, cleanings, fluoride treatments, and sealants. These services are designed to maintain optimal oral health and prevent dental issues before they arise.

How does Northern Maine Dental utilize advanced technology in dental treatments?

Our practice incorporates advanced technologies such as CEREC® for same-day crowns and the Solea® laser system for drill-free and anesthesia-free cavity treatments. These technologies enhance patient comfort and reduce treatment times.

Can I get a same-day dental crown at Northern Maine Dental?

Yes, with our CEREC® technology, we can design, mill, and place custom crowns in a single visit, eliminating the need for temporary crowns and multiple appointments.

The Solea® laser allows us to perform many dental procedures without the need for drills or anesthesia, resulting in a more comfortable and anxiety-free experience for our patients.

Are fluoride treatments available, and who should consider them?

Yes, we offer fluoride treatments to strengthen tooth enamel and prevent decay. They are especially beneficial for children, individuals with a high risk of cavities, or those with limited fluoride exposure.

How does Northern Maine Dental approach patient education?

We prioritize patient education by providing resources and information to help you understand your treatment options and maintain optimal oral health between visits.

Testimonials

My very first visit to my new dental family! Professional and personable staff made me feel at ease and comfortable. The modern waiting room and operatory were beautifully appointed. My hygienist, Jan made sure to explain her procedures during my exam and cleaning and answered any questions I had. Meeting Dr Thompson was a pleasure! She created a comprehensive treatment plan personalized to my specific needs and comfort level. Checking in and out was a pleasurable experience due to the efficiency of the office staff. Thank you Sandi!  I love my new dental home!”
