Family Dentistry at Schoen Family Dental
At Schoen Family Dentistry, we provide comprehensive dental care for your entire family. From your children to your grandparents, Drs. Tom and Nate Schoen have experience treating dental conditions and providing exceptional family dentistry for patients at all stages of life.
We enjoy getting to know families and helping to improve the oral health in our Wabasha community with excellent dental care.
Preventive and Diagnostic Dentistry
The best way to stay healthy is by implementing solid preventive routines and professional dental cleanings in our office. By maintaining your home care routine of brushing twice daily with a fluoride toothpaste and flossing between teeth at least once daily, you are taking the best steps possible to prevent common dental conditions such as decay and periodontal (gum) disease.
Regular exams and professional dental cleanings complement your home treatment. No matter how diligent you are with brushing and flossing, you simply cannot remove all of the tartar and bacteria that develop on your teeth. Professional dental cleanings allow our hygienist to clean between your teeth and beneath your gums where your toothbrush cannot reach.
Regular dental exams give you and Dr. Schoen a chance to discuss changes to your oral health as well as a chance for Dr. Schoen to examine your teeth and gums and to perform an oral cancer screening.
Restorative Dental Treatments
Most of us will require some type of restorative dental treatment at some point. In fact, according to the CDC, over 90% of adults have dental decay during their lifetimes. At Schoen Family Dentistry, we offer restorative treatments for every condition from decay to damaged teeth. Some of the most common restorative treatments include:
Tooth-colored fillings – In spite of your best efforts, you may need a filling at some point during your lifetime. When you do, we offer strong, reliable, tooth-colored fillings that blend in with your smile.
Dental crowns – If your tooth sustains damage, a filling might not provide the stability you need. A dental crown completely covers your tooth, adding support and protecting it from continued damage.
Bonding – For minor chips and repairs, dental bonding can smooth out your tooth and protect it from stains and decay.
Bridges – When you lose a tooth and a dental implant is not an option, dental bridges can fill the gap in your smile and hold your remaining teeth in place.
Stunning Cosmetic Dentistry
Patients sometimes want to improve the appearance of their smiles. Thomas Schoen, DDS, and Nathaniel Schoen, DDS offer a wide range of cosmetic solutions for every lifestyle and budget. Some common cosmetic treatments include:
Invisible braces – Invisible braces are a great option for patients wishing to improve the appearance of their smiles without lengthy treatment. We offer Dandy, Clear Correct, Sure Smile, Orthosnap, and six-month braces.
Veneers – For deeply stained, misshapen, or damaged teeth, porcelain veneers provide the best option for creating dramatic improvements to your smile.
Cosmetic bonding – For small repairs and gaps between your teeth, cosmetic bonding offers an affordable way to correct simple aesthetic flaws.
Professional teeth whitening – Professional teeth whitening offers effective and reliable results when patients wish to improve the color of their teeth.
Full smile makeovers – When you want to completely change the function or appearance of your smile, Drs. Thomas and Nathaniel Schoen have the skills and experience to combine various treatment methods to create the smile of your dreams.

Frequently Asked Questions
We understand that most of our patients want to look and feel great! That is why we offer professional teeth whitening. Professional whitening is one of the easiest and most affordable ways to improve the appearance of your smile. If you smoke, drink coffee, or eat fruits and vegetables, you might experience stained teeth. Dark teeth can make you look years older than you really are. Professional teeth whitening provides a solution to looking younger and healthier.
In most cases, professional teeth whitening can lighten your teeth several shades by the time treatment is complete. We offer both in-office whitening, which can produce the fastest results, and several at-home options. We create custom whitening trays in our office that you can take home and use at your own convenience. An evaluation with Dr. Tom Schoen or Dr. Nate Schoen will help us determine the whitening system and gel strength that will work best for you and provide you with the results you want.
Most patients whiten their teeth without any side effects. Sometimes, though, some patients experience sensitivity. It is not permanent. By modifying your whitening routine or by using some special products, you can still have the brighter smile you desire without discomfort.

Sometimes patients want to avoid dental exams, either because they have a dental phobia or because they want to save the money from costs associated with dental exams. We provide the type of dental care we would want for our own families and that includes a dental exam to determine the type of hygiene appointment that will be the best for you.
Dental Exam Costs
The cost of a dental exam is very low compared to most dental procedures. A routine exam allows a dentist to identify and treat any conditions before they worsen. Dental diseases such as decay, periodontal disease, and bone loss tend to worsen over time. Without a dental exam, it is impossible to diagnose your conditions.

Dental anxiety is one of the reasons that people say they stay away from the dental office. Our dentists, Dr. Tom Schoen and Dr. Nate Schoen, completely understand that the dental chair might not be your favorite place to be. Don’t worry! We are not offended. However, our dentists are committed to patient comfort and to helping people with anxiety feel more comfortable. They will go at your pace and have an extremely gentle touch. In fact, our office even invested in a pain-free injection system called The Wand®. It allows painless delivery of anesthetic so your treatment is completely comfortable from start to finish.
