I have had two visits to Arrowhead Dental Center now and have enjoyed the experience very much. It's a beautiful office located in the Minden. Gardnerville area. I don't mind the drive for a good experience. The hygienist has been great and the dentist, Dr. Wildman, has been to the point and clear. I have always hated the dentist but I haven't loathed going to this office as much as others. My last dentist tried to tell me I had all kinds of issues and needed expensive treatment to fix the problems, but this office has been realistic and hasn't tried to upsell unneeded treatments. Scheduling has been easy and they send plenty of appointment reminders. You can complete all paperwork in advance online or at their office on one of their computers. They have top of the line tech and make both dental work and clerical work a breeze. As long as nothing crazy happens with insurance billing or upcoming appointments, I expect this review to stand at 5 stars. I recommend Arrowhead Dental Center for your dental needs! read more

Arrowhead Dental Center - Front Desk - Cosmetic Dentists Near Me - Gardnerville, Nevada

I will never go back. This office has no integrity. I had been happily going for over a year and unbeknownst to me they stopped taking my insurance in January 2026. In February I showed up 15 minutes early, checked in and sat for 20 minutes before I was called back. After my cleaning I was informed I owed over $300.00 . They said they sent me an email in December. Why not call, mail, text or even tell me when I was sitting there twiddling my thumbs?Terrible customer service. read more

I'm new to the Minden area and, like most people, I was a little hesitant about finding a new dentist (because let's be honest -- who isn't hesitant about going to the dentist? ). That said, I'm so glad I chose Arrowhead Dental! The office is beautiful and welcoming, the ladies at the front desk were kind and helpful, and my hygienist did an exceptional job -- gentle, thorough, and made me feel completely comfortable throughout. The doctor had a great chairside manner and took the time to explain everything clearly. This was just my first visit, but I can already tell I've found my new local family dentist. I'm genuinely excited to continue my care with this wonderful team! read more

No wait time, very organized, great prices if you don't have insurance. Parking is good, the waiting room is swank.

Amazing cosmetic dental work, awesome service, professional staff. My husband has been waiting years to have his smile repaired properly to fit his face. Thank you Dr. Wildman. Mark Willis read more

Arrowhead Dental Center - Mark Willis before and after. - Cosmetic Dentists Near Me - Gardnerville, Nevada

Just had my first visit. Everyone was professional AND friendly. I chose them based on reviews and they did not disappoint!

I have been a patient of Arrowhead dental for as long as I can remember, originating with Dr. Forvilly, and now Dr. Christensen, and Dr. Wildman. Every time I go into the office it is always clean and welcoming. The front staff is great at checking me in and are always smiling and kind. My hygienist, Jackie, is wonderful! She is always tentative to my needs as a patient and together we work to maintain my dental health. After each cleaning I feel my best and know I am in good hands. Additionally, I have had dental work done by both Dr. Christensen and Dr. Wildman. Both of them are extremely talented and make me feel comfortable in their office. They do perfect work, communicate well, and really take the time to answer my questions and concerns. I truly feel lucky to be a patient at Arrowhead and know it is the best office in the valley! Upon recent years my father had many complications with his dental health due to other medical concerns. With the help of Dr. Christensen over many years, he now has a beautiful smile. I see it more often than I ever have before and can tell it has greatly changed his confidence and smile. read more

I would like to start with the fact that the understaff was amazing. However Dr Wildman took zero accountability when I was told my flipper would be ready before my extractions and it wasn't. Instead they scheduled me an appointment for a fitting without even consulting me first, the same day as my extractions at the oral surgery place, knowing I was having a full sedation. No call to let me know just sent a text message. They wouldn't even offer a partial refund for the inconvenience they caused. The man only cares about money in his pocket and has zero empathy for his clients. I should have known by his bedside manner the first time I saw him. I hope his staff can find jobs with other dentists who actually care and have some sense of morals. read more

I first went to Arrowhead for a cleaning last June. They offer a pre-payment plan for cleanings at a discounted price and it discounts their other services. I took advantage of it and I'm so glad I did. I had them do an implant and I couldn't be happier! They're top notch and I highly recommend them!! Dr. Christiansen is awesome and so are the hygenists and office staff. read more

I moved to Minden NV and was looking for a new dental office. Someone recommended Arrowhead Dental. I am not a fan of dentist. I have had trouble experience with dentist giving or recommending treatment that I did not need and would of cost me up to $5000 and more. My first visit to Arrowhead Dental I was told that I needed a deep cleaning, and my cost would be up to $1,200. I agreed since have not seen a dentist for a few years. They scheduled me an appointment for deep clean 6 months out. Seam like a long time to wait for a cleaning. I had a health issue and had to reschedule. That was another 6 months. So, it took a year to get an appointment for cleaning. Can in for my appointment and since it was a year now, I need new ex-rays and checkup with my Deep Cleaning (more money I had to come up with). The staff was friendly, and the office is clean. The hygienist was kind, and I felt was doing a good job (only one side of my mouth). Dentist spent about 5 minutes with me and said see you next year. When I checked out the office staff talked me into buying their annual package to save money on the deep cleaning, x-rays, checkup and will cover cleaning for the year. I paid for my plan and the visit. Then was told that they over charged me $30.00 and would credit my account for the final cleaning. Also, if I paid cash or check I would receive a 5% discount. I came in two week later for the final deep cleaning. All went well until I went to pay my bill. I told the billing person that I was paying cash for this visit. She gave me the amount to pay, and I asked about my cash discount. She proceeded to tell me that cash discount only applied to bills over $500.00 (this was not told to me before). I told her that my bill was over $500.00 but since I have a $30.00 credit it lowered to under $500. She as not going to give me the discount for cash. I explain that the $30.00 credit was due to their mistake not mine and that was not a discount. So, since their office made a mistake then corrected it, I lost the discount that I was told I would get. She finely with a very upset tone agreed to give me the %5 discount by giving me another credit instead of a refund. I know I will never see that credit. I am planning on using them until my plan that I paid for is over but will starting looking for a dental office that will not try and ripe me off. A cash credit should be on all transactions no matter if it is $10. Or $500. I can get 5% cash back and perks on my credit cards and the dental office can just go ahead and pay the transaction fee with the credit card company. read more

I recently had my teeth cleaned and the dental assistant was professionally and caring. The dentist on the other hand showed no regard for my time or comfort. I waited in excess of 20 minutes for him to check the dental assistant work. He spent less than 5 minutes with his dental check and charged $72 for his check.. I for one will seek a new dental office. read more

I had a horribly painful tooth to the point that I couldn't sleep. This was during the COVID-19 shutdown - Arrowhead Dental took me in on an emergency basis. The staff was very professional and undertook all the necessary health precautions. Dr. Wildman diagnosed as an impacted wisdom tooth, referred me to a dental surgeon, and prescribed pain meds until I could see the surgeon. I would definitely recommend Arrowhead Dental to others. read more

Dr Christensen is a great dentist and overall nice and genuine person. He doesn't try to give you procedures you don't need. He is cost conscious with his patients. And doesn't degrade you or humiliate you for having bad teeth. His office is well run, clean and state of the art. The receptionists are quick to attend you. The dental assistants have you in a room in just a few minutes. I've been there about 5 times and haven't waited more than 5 minutes in the waiting room. Five stars is well deserved for this office. read more

Trash. They say it'll be one price and I pay it than I get a bill for 4500 like ok this exceeds the original quote and payment. Straight scammers. Also the dentist and staff do not know what patient they are looking at and what they are supposed to do. read more

I've been a guest in the dental chair at Arrowhead and Zephyr Cove dental for many years, both are owned by Dr. Christensen, the service has always been great. The staff really cares and it shows. If I could give them a 10 I would. read more

I recently relocated to Gardnerville, a local friend suggested Arrowhead - had my first cleaning & exam today, all went extremely well! Professional staff, excellent technicians in a modern well-managed facility, can't ask for more! Highly recommended, 2 thumbs up! read more

Like many people, I dread going to the dentist. However the hygienist Gemma was really kind and patient and made the whole appointment much easier! The dentist himself was kind of rude unfortunately. Still overall, would recommend! read more

Thank you to Dr. Christensen and staff for helping me today with my dental emergency! Nothing can ruin a vacation like a toothache and root canal, but thanks to you I'm back on track to enjoy the rest of my vacation. I was so nervous and scared but you put me at ease. Thank you so much! read more

I have no idea how this practice has 5 stars. I have noticed that they all have Dr Christiansen as their dentist , and I had dr. Wildman... who I'm not thrilled with. I've seen him on 3 occasions and he always seems to be in a big hurry. I felt like he was rushed and inconsiderate of my dental fears. I had a crown done recently and the permanent popped off within 2 days. The front desk staff is also super rushed whenever I call. I've even been hung up on THREE TIMES while trying to ask one more question as they rushed to get me off the phone. As soon as I get this crown back on I'll never go back here. I cried, hard, throughout my entire procedure and the dentist and his assistant just ignored me. Didn't even speak to me, just chatted together while I was full panic crying with my mouth open. I also don't think the topical numbing paste was given time to work before he went to TOWN on me with the Novocain needle. Not a single reassuring word. I wasn't fully numb and he had to go at me again- seeming annoyed that I was taking up more of his time. My temp crown didn't fit right, oh! And no one gave me the chance to say that my nitrous mask was too tight and afterward i had a bruise over my nose- it looked like I was punched in the nose. Consider somewhere else. Or maybe ask for dr christianson? read more

This dentist is so amazing! They just take care of my dental needs every time I am here! I have some dental problems and they have never tried to over sell to me or make me feel bad for my dental problems. Its an easy atmosphere to be in and they make their appointments simple and caring. I can't say enough good things about this dentist office! read more

Totally impressed with this Dental Group! At 70 years old, this was the first time I had no pain during a cleaning. Very thorough Exam. At end of visit they give you a very detailed Print Out, with Prices, of what needs to be done. You can schedule your work at your choice & within your Budget. read more

Was able to fit all three of us, myself, my husband, and 1 yr old daughter in next day. Office is beautiful, modern, spacious. Desk staff is so pleasant, we had a quick digital check-in, very streamlined. They let me hold my daughter on my lap while I did my cleaning, but they were willing to hold her if she got too fussy. They found toys for her amd were so nice and interactive. The cleaning was the most gentle I've ever had. Dr. Christian was quick, pleasant, and low pressure. He did well with my daughter as well. Best part: they have 2 offices so my husband who works in Minden can see them in Gardnerville, and my daughter and I can go to their Zephyr Cove office, but still have all our files with the same business. read more

Personnel and professionals are very nice and accommodating to our needs. Grand-daughter has braces and the hygienist was very gentle with her teeth cleaning. Absolutely would recommend.. read more

Dr Christensen and his staff deserve 5 stars for the compassion and care they give their patients. I went in on 5/22 with two abcessed teeth, face swollen and in severe pain desperate for relief. Nothing worse than having to wait around in an office in agony. But they attended to me quickly. X-rays consultation and extractions done in about 90 minutes. And they are very affordable. They don't try to upsell you or put pressure on you. The doctor went above and beyond to help me and I greatly appreciate it. read more

I purchased a set of dentures through Arrowhead Dental and spent almost $4,000.00. I was very pleased with the staff, but the doctor is another story, arguing with me about HOW, my dentures should fit, rather than, how they actually do fit. So as to not have to replace a lower that is not correct to begin with. I finally walked out. I was tired of arguing. I am considering a lawsuit for my money back on a lower denture. $2,000.00 is a lot of money. Dr. Carter Christenson, in my opinion is very argumentative, and would take anyone's money at no expense. read more

The staff is super friendly which makes the whole experience pleasant. Love the new location and facilities too.

This practice is very caring and friendly. Office is state of the art and clean. I had work done by western dental who did the worst work. They left me with a very high bite that caused severe pain. I called arrowhead and they took me in same day without insurance to adjust the bite. While it was expensive, staff worked with me on a price that was affordable. Will definitely be back! read more

Arrowhead Dental has been my dentist since moving here. Courteous and friendly staff. Dr. Christensen gave me some very good suggestions for gum sensitivity that I never got from my previous Dentist. read more

Brittany is our dental hygienist and is fantastic. She knows how sensitive my teeth are when she uses the cavity on, so she puts the numbing gel on my gums and I'm good to go! Dr. Anderson is thorough and very gentle. I would recommend this office to everyone. By the way, they just moved into the new office and it is awesome. read more

Dr Chase and his staff go the extra mile in service product and professionalism. No one likes going to the dentist, but Dr Chase and his team are truly the exception. They are helpful gentle and excel in service. Thank you Dr Chase read more

It is always so pleasant when you go to Arrowhead Dental. The staff is always so friendly and personable. Dr. Christiansen is great, as well.
