Description

Specialties

Our philosophy is that a healthy smile begins with preventive care and a balanced bite and continues with aesthetic enhancements to give you the brightest and most natural smile possible. We are committed to providing you with complete dental services for your healthy smile.

For Your Complete Dental Wellness:

Oral health is a major indicator of your body’s wellness. You’ve probably read about links between periodontal disease and heart disease. Untreated tooth decay can lead to root canals and – ultimately – tooth loss. Unbalanced occlusion (the way you bite) can lead to tooth fracture and loss, hypersensitivity and even head and neck pain. We aim for early detection to save you discomfort, time and money.

For Your Smile:

We offer tooth-​colored fillings, veneers and crowns as well as teeth whitening. For more complex health needs, we offer dental implants, root canals and treatments for gum disease and TMJ disorder.

Colleagues recommended Dewan Dental when I moved to Milwaukee. It was a great recommendation! Lovely, professional environment with staff that does good work and has a great rapport with customers.
Similar to at least one other reviewer, I wish that they could be a bit more accommodating in their schedule, but I suppose that comes with the territory in a practice with one dentist.
Would definitely recommend!

I was Dentist phobic. I literally had not gone to the dentist for 5 years due to my fear. A friend recommended DeWan Dental and I have fallen in love with my dentist and his cadre of professionals. Since 2005 every time I come in I am greeted warmly, by name. I am offered, in a respectful way, all sorts of comfort items (heat wraps, pillows/​bolsters, headphones/​music) to make my visit more enjoyable. All my procedures are explained and adaptations are made as needed.
In addition I know that DeWan Dental takes their membership in the neighborhood and community seriously, getting involved with seemingly disparate activities in town — until you realize it is all about building community. I appreciate that tremendously.
Mike/​Lora and their team are stellar. I tell everyone to go there.

My husband I have been going here for several years now, and have always appreciated the sincere friendliness of all of the staff as well as the consistently thorough and honest check ups. They give you the information you need to make informed choices, and when I have asked I have gotten exact pricing on different procedures to help determine when to do certain things. We moved 30 miles away and still return for our check ups regularly. I would and do recommend them to anyone.

Thanks to Dr. Mike and the staff for making me feel that I am more than just another patient. When I was looking for a dentist on the eastside I read the Unilocal reviews. Let me add mine to the positive list. I have found that I actually look forward to visiting and catching up with the team during my regular cleanings! I have never felt that way about the going to the dentist’s office before. If you are in need of dental care this is a practice you should strongly consider.

I couldn’t be happier with the care my wife & I receive from Dewan dental. They have all but removed all of my previously built up anxieties about dental appointments. Their patience and kindness is beyond appreciated. On a more basic and practical level, the office is very comfortable, well taken care of, and I’ve never experienced them «running behind». In 40+ years of dental appointments I’m finally happy to attend! Thanks guy!

Most people hate going to the dentist. I used to be one of them, until I found this place. While I am still not a fan of dentist offices and procedures to begin with, this is the best dentist I’ve had the pleasure of going to. Extremely friendly, personal, informative, kind. You can tell they actually care what they’re doing and who their clients are. They are extremely in-​depth and, when slinging around their technical jargon, I tend to ask a lot of questions about what they are talking about even if they aren’t talking to me. They take the time to answer and explain. which is how it should be. After all, it’s my mouth they’re working on. Speaking of which, they are the only dentist office I’ve been to where the dentist and hygienists are NOT rough with my mouth. I appreciate that immensely because it seems every other individual has been.
They also offer perks like sunglasses while being under the examination lights and ipods & headphones if you’d like to listen to music while you’re there. High five!

My youngest, who will turn 4 in a week, had to have a large cavity filled between his molars. He is horribly shy and, unlike his brother, scared of everything. Dewan and his staff new how to treat him better than his mom or I. We both went, thinking we’d hold his hands and praise him, or if worst came to worst, hold his head still.
The staff kindly and convincingly told us it would be best if we waited outside. Skeptical, we handed him off. The worst part was the numbing, but he didn’t flinch, cry or complain. Then there was the Nemo movie (short version) and the filling, which, he claims, he didn’t notice at all.
We’re making an appointment for our other son right away. If anything changes, I’ll update my rating and review.

I’ve dropped one star because Dewan seems to have a business method that doesn’t agree with me. He’s too thorough. He’ll find every little nook and cranny in x-​rays and call them all cavities worth filling. But when the quote comes for thousands of dollars and you realize you can’t, he’ll kindly offer a list of priorities. The problem is that no parent fells comfortable telling the dentist not to fill the cavities. I wish he would just tell us what work is truly necessary.

My teenage son was playing basketball & took an elbow to the mouth. He complained the next day that his front teeth were hurting, so I made him an appointment at Dewan Dental to have his teeth examined & cleaned.
I know a lot of people are terrified of the dentist, but we’re not among them. I expected that he’d get a simple examination & cleaning, & what we experienced was stellar customer service from friendly knowledgeable staff.
Dr. Dewan even sat & talked sports with the kid for a while after the exam was over. He was extremely kind to us! How many people can actually say they look forward to seeing their dentist again?

I am new to Milwaukee from San Francisco and Toronto where I have had amazing dentists. They were amazing because they were reasonable people who would explain their procedures to me.
I made an appointment at Dewan Dental Wellness and the receptionist told me I would need an x-​ray in order for the dentist to look at my mouth. I explained that I had recent x-​rays that I would have transferred over and that I just needed a dentist to look in my mouth to see if I had cracked a filling. I got off the phone feeling bullied into an x-​ray.
Upon entering the office, I was struck by how many staff he kept and how old they all were – all about 50 and all female.
When I went to the appointment I had decided to only have an x-​ray if it seemed necessary. So, when Dr. Dewan sat down and said I’m going to take two images before he had even looked at my mouth, I asked him how the images would help him.
He began repeating over and over again, that in order to make a diagnosis he needed x-​rays. Finally I asked if the x-​ray would help in the diagnosis.
At that point he got up and handed my chart to the receptionist and refused service to me.
I guess I wasn’t’ subservient enough to be his patient!

Dentist visits instill fear in the hearts of many… dare I say, most (myself included).
That said, if it is possible that there exists such a thing as a positive visit to a dentist, you’ll experience that positive at Dewan.
Situated super conveniently on the corner of Farwell and that one side street right after Maryland, you’ll find Dewan in the sleek building that looks like a super-​modern wooden ship. You can’t miss it.
And the décor? Mindful, and worldly. And it’s so soothing in there! And the receptionist, Amy? So sweet it’ll make your teeth hurt. (Really. While scheduling my appointment with her and doing the research re: whether or not the place would take my insurance, we had two phone calls. Each time after hanging up, I was left smiling. She’s *that* nice.)
And the staff? Super nice, helpful, knowledgable, and understanding. I was offered a lumbar support, a knee support, a memory foam neck pillow, and music while I waited for my cleaning. Dr. Dewan himself is smart and honest, and you can tell that he and the rest of the staff genuinely care about your teeth and your well-​being. Warm fuzzies, but it’s true.
I’m giving ‘em a four because, well, I’ve only been once. I can’t imagine them not getting the final star in the form of an update relatively soon, however… because if yesterday’s visit was any indication of what’s to come, I’ve found a fabulous new place to get my teeth cleaned and cared for. Stoked about a dentist? Yup. I said it, and I mean it.

FACT: I hate going to the dentist. FACT: I’m not one of those people blessed with perfect teeth and have had some serious dental work done. I’m sure I would be more apt to give any dentist a positive rating if either of those were false.
Dr. DeWan has some serious dental skills and he and his staff care about teeth. I’ve been very happy with not only the quality of the work I’ve had done, but also with how I’ve been treated by the staff. The office is close by (relative, but I don’t want to drive 20 minutes to the ‘burbs to get some cavities filled) and they are very email friendly. If you have to get your teeth looked at, may as well go to someone who is progressive, skilled, and convenient.
