Midwest Dental in White Bear Lake is absolutely amazing! Dr. Keifer is especially great (and also Dr. Chmiel) and they ALWAYS try very hard to make sure their patients are more than happy and that you get exactly what you came for/want. Their lab person, Rick, from Galaxy Dental is also great and makes the most beautiful teeth (crowns, bridges and implants). Could not recommend this place more!

Dr. Chmiel keeps light humor during lengthy dental procedures. Keeps patient's mind focused on enjoyable mini stories, making time pass quickly. He explains things as you go and provides ample opportunity to rest jaw muscles when needed & keeps track of pain levels to make sure patient is comfortable. His assistant is very precise on crown molds and fit. Have not had any issue with crowns they've done for me.
Everything took place in a timely manner. I was in and out with everything accomplished in a very professional fashion.
All the staff were very pleasant and helpful! Mayka, my hygienist, did an excellent job cleaning my teeth! I was impressed. My visit took a little longer than expected but overall worth it! And I loved that Dr. Chmiel and I share a love for dogs! That made it all the more worth going here!

We changed our dental provider due to an insurance change. The staff at Midwest Dental - White Bear Lake were kind and accommodating. I spent time on the phone with office staff and had a good experience with the Dental Hygienist and the Dentist. I am glad to have made the change.
My daughter went in with dental pain due to an impacted, infected wisdom tooth. Dr. Kieffer removed the tooth in one appointment. Other dentists wanted to refer out, involving multiple appointments, when my daughter was in a great deal of pain. Very grateful for Dr. Kieffer and Midwest Dental!
They’re always very thorough knowledgeable. They’re very friendly. I’ve been going here for years and any work I’ve ever needed done on top of just a cleaning has been done very well.
Dr.Keifer was absolutely a perfectionist. He went well above and beyond the minimum. I was in pretty bad shape and he has done more than fix my teeth but there he mad a concerted effort to make sure they look good and that my bite was perfect. He was not judgemental which put me at ease.
Dr. Keifer is amazing!! He counseled me on my crown and was the most positive dental experience I have ever had. Was quick, explained every step during and after and my mouth has never felt better!!

Fairly new patient to this dental office, but I have had nothing but amazing experiences! Dr. Keifer and his staff are wonderful at their trade and even better with their patients! If you’re looking for a new dentist, this is the place, no question!
This was a big switch for me after having had the same dentist for almost 30 years since I was a toddler, and all of the staff were amazing! My hygienist and dentist both made me feel like I was at home there, exactly the way I did at the Blaine Midwest Dental location. I'm very happy to have a new dental care team that's as happy to see me as I am to see them!
Nice people. Super care. Did not try to sell me products/services that I can not afford. Looking forward to my next check up.
Very professional and takes my Dental Dental Insurance. It’s a win, win!
I had split my bottom tooth vertically snacking on Bagel chips from Costco. I got in the next day to see Dr. Schmeel, as Dr. Keifer was out of town. Dr. Schmeel and assistant, Julia, in no time had a resin filling replace what I lost, no pain, out in 20 minutes- good as new! No more Bagel chips! Jumping Jim Brunzell

I have a lot of anxiety around dentists, and needed a lot of work done. Dr. Chmiel was very patient and compassionate, was careful to get things right, and is an artist in his craft. My crown (installed by him) and several fillings (fixed by him because of shotty past dental work) feel like my old teeth again. The staff from the front desk all the way back have been pleasant, and ready to work with. I will recommend this group to anybody that asks.
