First-time patient? We’re so glad you found us. Welcome to Mill District Dental.

Here are a few important things to know for your first appointment:

  • We offer free indoor parking with direct access to our office–just enter on 11th Ave. S. and follow signs for Bridgewater Lofts Guest + Retail Parking. If the lot’s full, no worries, there’s usually plenty of street parking right out front on Washington Avenue. Need a hand finding us? Give us a call, we’re happy to help.

  • Yes! We work with most insurance providers and are happy to file claims for you. Our team is here to help you understand your benefits and make sure you're getting the most out of your coverage. Give us a call anytime and we’ll work together to find the best solution. Even if we’re out of network, you may be able to receive benefits.

    We also partner with Care Credit to help finance treatment plans. Ask us about our options at your next appointment.

  • Think of this first appointment as a warm welcome and a deep-dive into your smile. Here’s what you can expect when you settle into our chair:

    • A friendly chat about your dental and medical history so we can get the full picture

    • A personal conversation about any treatment options that fit your goals

    • Plenty of time for your questions–nothing’s off limits

    • Quick, comfortable digital X-rays

    • A thorough exam to check the health of your teeth, gums, and bite

    • A professional cleaning plus a careful check for cavities, gum disease, or anything else that needs attention

    If your smile needs a little extra care, we’ll schedule a follow-up visit to keep everything on track.

  • Your comprehensive exam is more than a quick peek–it’s a full check-in on your oral health. We’ll:

    • Review your dental and medical history so we know the whole story

    • Take digital X-rays for a clear, detailed view beneath the surface

    • Examine your teeth, gums, bite, and jaw for any signs of cavities, gum disease, or other concerns

    • Screen for oral cancer and other conditions that can affect your overall health

    • Discuss any findings and share personalized recommendations

    Think of it as a top-to-bottom wellness visit for your smile, with time for all your questions and a plan that’s tailored just for you.

  • Not much! Just bring yourself and your smile. A few little things can help the appointment run smoothly:

    • Paperwork & insurance: If you’re a new patient, complete your forms online ahead of time and have your insurance card handy

    • Medication list: Jot down any prescriptions or health changes since your last dental visit

    • Questions & goals: If you're thinking about whitening, a night guard, or anything else, make a note so we can talk it through

    • Everyday prep: Brush and floss as usual, but no need for a “special clean” beforehand

    That’s it. We’ll take care of the rest and make sure you feel comfortable from the moment you walk in.

Our patients say the nicest things…

  • I just had my first visit at Mill District Dental, and so much has already been accomplished for my complicated case! Dr. Seime referred me to the periodontist, and together they've worked out a treatment plan that I'm comfortable with. Jolene, the hygienist, was extremely helpful and took great care of me. The front desk ladies were welcoming and attentive as well. Overall, a very positive experience so far!

    Ahha A.

  • I’ve been to many dentists in multiple countries and Mill District Dental is by far the best! Dr. Seime is extremely caring and skilled, Amy is so patient and helpful with insurance questions (and goes WAY above and beyond), and all the hygienists and staff have been extremely kind and welcoming. It really is a gem and makes everything from treatment, payment, and insurance painless! Truly appreciate how knowledgeable the staff are and how flexible and non-judgmental they are with treatment plans!

    Sihyun P.

  • I can’t say enough good things about Mill District Dental! From the moment I walked in, every single person made me feel welcome and at ease. Even though it was my first visit, it felt like I’d been a patient for years. If you’re looking for a dental office that truly lives up to the “no judgment” promise—this is it. Dr. Seime and her team are not only incredibly skilled, but also kind, compassionate, and genuinely caring. I’m so grateful to have found them!

    Eric. E.

  • I’d recommend this dental practice to anyone and everyone! From the front office staff to Jolene, my hygienist, to Dr. Seime, this practice goes exceptionally above and beyond in offering the best in comfortable, compassionate care as well as the latest in dental advancements. Seriously — the technology/interventions in this office are some of the latest and greatest I’ve heard of in dentistry (from a patient’s standpoint), and I’m glad this practice stays on top of it!

    Jordan F.

  • As someone who is not particularly fond of visiting the dentist, I had a lovely time at Mill District Dental today. The hygienist, dentist, and receptionist were patient, educational, and inviting. They listened to my concerns without judgement and gave me a solid game plan for my future dental needs. I also feel that they had more modern/state of the art equipment which made the visit itself quick and painless! Would totally recommend if you’re in the area.

    Taylor P.

  • Mill District Dental is AMAZING. Felicia and Amy make you feel right at home and welcomed, always greetings you with a smile. Jolene is such a thoughtful, attentive, skilled hygienist, and Dr. Seime runs the show with care, intentional coaching, and compassion. I used to walk to Mill District Dental, then bike, now I drive 26 minutes in each direction following a recent change of address. They make it easy to keep coming back.

    Jason K.

  • A great group that makes what can be a harrowing experience, a really comfortable and easy visit. They implement the latest technology and techniques to ensure all will go well!

    Ed H.

  • 100/10! I cannot recommend this place enough. I was super anxious to go in for a cleaning after it’s been awhile and they made me feel incredibly welcome, calm and not embarrassed or ashamed. They were super nice!!! I already have scheduled my next appointments and I will not be missing any of them, I’m actually excited to go back! Everyone that helped me was super helpful, informative, super nice and had great vibes. Overall, wonderful experience and you should definitely schedule an appointment here!!!
