    Family & Kids

    First visits that feel like a field trip, not a procedure. We see parents and kids back-to-back so you make one trip, not three.

Why Bluebird

Built for people who put off the dentist.

Most of our new patients start the same way: “It’s been a few years, and I’m embarrassed.” Don’t be. Dr. Voss built Bluebird around one rule — no lectures, no guilt, just a clear plan and a calm room. Weighted blankets, noise-canceling headphones, and numbing that actually gets time to work.

The other half of dental anxiety is the bill. We verify your benefits before your visit, quote costs in writing before treatment, and file every claim for you. No insurance? Our $29/month membership covers cleanings, exams, and X-rays, with 15% off everything else.

Your first visit

Three easy steps to a healthier smile.

  1. Book online or call

    Pick a time that works — early mornings and Saturdays included. Send us your insurance info and we verify everything before you arrive.

  2. Meet, look, and talk

    A gentle exam, digital X-rays, and a conversation. You see what we see on the screen, and nothing happens without your OK.

  3. A plan that fits your budget

    You leave with a written plan, exact costs after insurance, and options in order of priority — what’s urgent, what can wait.

Reviews

Nervous patients, converted.

★★★★★

I hadn’t seen a dentist in nine years and was braced for a lecture. Instead: “Glad you’re here, let’s make a plan.” Three visits later I’m caught up — and I actually rebooked.

Megan T.Patient · Linden Hills
★★★★★

They told me exactly what my insurance covered before I ever sat in the chair. The final bill matched the estimate to the dollar. That has literally never happened to me at a dentist.

Derek H.Patient · Northeast Minneapolis
★★★★★

No dental insurance, so I joined the $29 membership. Two cleanings, X-rays, and a discount on my crown — cheaper than the plan my old job offered. My kids go here now too.

FAQ

Honest answers before you book.

I haven’t been to a dentist in years. Will I get judged?

No. About a third of our new patients say exactly that. Your first visit is an exam and a conversation — we sort your care into “urgent,” “soon,” and “can wait,” and you decide the pace.

Do you take my insurance?

We work with most major PPO plans and file all claims for you. Send us your card before your visit and we’ll confirm your exact coverage in writing — before you owe anything.

What if I don’t have dental insurance?

Our membership plan is $29/month: two cleanings a year, exams, and X-rays included, plus 15% off other treatment. No deductibles, no waiting periods, no denial letters.

What do veneers and whitening cost?

Porcelain veneers typically run $900–$1,800 per tooth depending on the case, and in-office whitening is $349. We always give you a written quote — and a digital preview — before you commit.

Can you really help with dental anxiety?

Yes. Longer appointments so nothing feels rushed, topical numbing before any injection, headphones, and a hand-signal to pause anytime. For higher anxiety we offer nitrous oxide.
