Great place and family friendly. Lexie (dental hygienist) was wonderful with my 5 and 3 year old today as she cleaned their teeth. Wendy (receptionist) was so kind to my kids and helped keep them entertained as I got my teeth cleaned. I have always had a great experience here and highly recommend going!

Read More About Us About UsDr. Niegsch: The best qualities of this practice are the people for sure. We have a group of people that care about each other. They care about our patients. They care about doing things at a high level, things that are seen and things that aren’t seen. And so, from a patient’s perspective, I believe you get better care from the entire office when everybody’s working together, likes each other, is rallied around a common goal. And for me, that’s the people. A lot of offices can have fancy technology and nice decorations, but it’s the people in it and how they care about you that makes the difference.
Woman 1: Everybody here is so friendly and you maybe don’t know this, but I think that the way that everybody feels about working here, I think they love working here. Everybody jokes around, if you’re jokey, they’re serious, if you’re serious. They have amenities that I really like.
Man: You can just tell their investment in the customers and just like staying up to date with their technology and everything. Some of the machines that I saw walking around, it was just like, wow, you can just tell everything state of the art, brand new. They really kind of keep up to date with their practices and trying to make sure that they’re doing everything in the customer’s best interest.
Woman 1: Honestly, I sometimes feel guilty asking for some of the amenities because there’s so many, and you don’t have that option anywhere else. I just, I feel like I should just kind of tough it out and not ask for those things. But here lately, I’ve been asking for them because they do for me, create an experience where I’m not tense the whole time I’m in here. You know, I would leave the dentist’s office before and I would just be all tense. I don’t leave here tense. I actually leave here really relaxed.
Woman 2: Well, honestly, I had started out with a different dentistry and had been going to them for years and it started where they were a smaller practice and I felt important to them. And then it got to the point where I was just another body walking through the door. And so, I started kind of looking around. I don’t know for sure what drew me to Somerset, but there was just something about it that made me want to stop in and at least give them a try. And it’s actually one of the best decisions I made.
Woman 3: All the experiences I’ve had have been great. They always seem to know what they’re looking for and what needs done. And I go out of here knowing that they took care of the problem regardless of what it was.
Woman 1: I really feel like they know what they’re doing. I mean, I’ve been to a couple in my lifetime, a couple different dentist’s office and I’ve stayed here.
Dr. Niegsch: At Dentistry at Somerset, you can expect to be taken care of like your family. You can expect to receive a warm welcome. We invite you into our office like we would invite you into our home. You can expect mutual respect and that we will take the utmost care of you and your family.

Yes we do! We encourage you to bring your child for their first dental appointment around their first birthday or within six months of the eruption of their first baby tooth. This might seem early, but if a child has a tooth, they can have tooth decay. We can advise you on best practices to care for your kids’ teeth. We make visits fun for our younger patients, so they are less likely to feel anxious as they get older.
