Donald Wennersten, DDS

I have been going to Dr Wennersten for over 20 years and would definitely recommend him. Although I have moved an hour away, I feel it is definitely worth the trip to see him because he’s compassionate and trustworthy.

Great place! Went there yesterday for my first time. The office could use some updating but the staff and dentist were great. The hygienist was very informative and really knew her stuff. And the dentist really took the time to check everything out afterwards. I will most definitely be going back.

I just left Dr. Wannersten’s office for what was supposed to be an emergency repair on my tooth… something I have had done multiple times with other dentists with no problem. During my visit Dr. Wannersten informed me he would need to take an «quick X-​Ray» of my front tooth at a cost of $ 29 – this was not a problem. After receiving a quote of $ 320 to repair my tooth (I have never payed more than $ 100) I graciously declined the service. Upon checking out and being entirely willing to pay the $ 29 dollars for the X-​Ray, the receptionist charged me $ 105 and informed me this also included an «exam cost». This was never mentioned to me and I was so angry I payed and left and will never return there or recommend to any friends or family. Dr. Wannersten’s office is welcome to give me a call to make this right. I never agreed to an exam… this was merely a routine bonding on a tooth I have had fixed many times and I made that very clear.

I know that I disappoint my dentist. Time and time again when they lift open the hood and check all of my not-​so-​pearly whites, there is nothing dangerous to find. At this point, I give much of that credit to Dr. Wennersten and his staff.
Everyone is friendly. The facilities are always comfortable. I almost always get a seat with a window which tends to make things feel less socially sterile. The visits are always quick and generally painless. And most importantly, I think that everyone is trained in such a way, that when they are conversing with you or asking a question, they do so when they know you can actually reply and not with some crazy instrument stuck in your mouth as it’s trying to suck your face off of your skull.
I tend to always leave hoping that I run into Dr. Wennersten or his staff somewhere else, because I frankly think they would all be great people to know. And it’s that quality that makes me come back every single time.

I’ve had nightmarish experiences for years with dentists, and Dr. Wennersten is a breath of fresh air. Both he and his staff are personable, his costs are reasonable, and his treatment — both hygienic and cosmetic — is superb. He did excellent work on the bonding of my front teeth. I recommend him highly and without reservation.

Dr. Wennersten has been my dentist for 30 years — that should indicate how much I respect and trust him. He is laid back, can give a nerve deadening shot almost painlessly. His hygienist Lynn is careful and very thorough. Another plus, not related to the care itself, is that he has the best collection of waiting room books I’ve ever encountered in a doctor’s office. From Architecture to the 50 Fashions that Changed the World (no kidding that’s the title.) Sometimes I wish that they didn’t see me so promptly (which is always the case) after I arrive so I could finish what I’m reading.

I came to Ann Arbor for two years of grad school and opted not to go the student route and try U of M services for my teeth. Instead I found Dr. Wannersten’s office online and gave it a try. I ended up going back every six months, four visits in all, and my experience getting my teeth taken care of there was great. I have good teeth, so my visits are more about a good hygenist and being able to get any questions I have answered. My dental hygenist (sorry to forget your name!) was very experienced, polite, and always did a wonderful job. Dr. Wannersten checked my teeth out every time, he is knowledgeable and very friendly. My only criticism is that they’re a bit pricey, but you get better dental care for the money.

Dr. Wennersten has been my dentist for so long, I think maybe over 20 years. He is the dentist I see when I am in the US. Even when I was living in NYC I would fly back here for my regular dental cleanings.
The staff are really nice here and the office is very nice and comfortable. They have their own private building, a revamped bank with a private parking lot.
Even if you are worried and have an emergency you can still get in touch with Dr. Wennersten. He can squeeze you in for an appointment during those panic times. They will take the time to explain things to you so you can fix or eliminate the problem.
Dentist’s are scary and its hard to find a trust worthy one, especially one that won’t hurt you!
