In orthodontic practice since 1996, she is very passionate about what she does and takes exceptional care of every patient that walks through her door. 

Committed to helping individuals obtain straight teeth and a beautiful smile, all while making the process informative and fun, she is one of the best providers of orthodontics St. Paul and Minneapolis have to offer. She loves really getting to know her patients, helping them get the very best results out of treatment, and having a blast in the process.

“Our team is all about doing the best quality of work and having a great time while we’re at it. All members of our treatment staff are registered assistants, our office staff has years of experience offering patients expert advice and service, and every member of our team is certified dynamo. Everybody here is warm, welcoming, fun loving, energetic, and determined to make sure you have a smile that speaks volumes. We really get a kick out of not only transforming smiles but also seeing how the treatment transforms patients and gives them more confidence to smile proudly—to smile out loud!” as stated on her website. 

Knowing from a young age that orthodontics was for her and that she wanted to create beautiful smiles, Dr. Eisenhuth attended the University of Minnesota School of Dentistry, graduating in the top of her class and earning the Minnesota Association of Orthodontic Achievement Award and several academic achievement awards. She then entered her residency in orthodontics at the University of Minnesota, earning both a certificate in orthodontics and a Master of Science degree.

To keep up with the ever-changing world of technology and the great advances in orthodontic care, Dr. Eisenhuth regularly attends numerous training and educational seminars. She also completed her board certification through the American Board of Orthodontics in 2006 and is an active member of several organizations, including the American Dental Association, the American Association of Orthodontics, the Midwest Society of Orthodontists, the Minnesota Association of Orthodontists, the Minnesota Dental Association, the Dakota County Dental Society, and Omicron Kappa Upsilon.

Her utter passion for orthodontics has led her to develop an environment that is caring, trusting, and lots of fun for everyone. She feels truly privileged to be able to provide excellence in orthodontic care to the Twin Cities, St. Paul and Minneapolis, and their surrounding regions, including Mendota Heights, Inver Grove Heights, Burnsville, Apple Valley, and Eagan.

Orthodontics is a specialty of dentistry that deals with the diagnosis, prevention, and correction of malpositioned teeth and jaws. Orthodontists are responsible for identifying problems with the positioning of a patient’s teeth and with their oral development. They utilize the most advanced procedures and equipment available to ensure that every patient achieves a healthy and beautiful smile. 

On a more personal note, Dr. Eisenhuth has been married to her husband, Peter Eisenhuth, since 1994 and they have enjoyed traveling the world together. Even with their three children – Claudia, Gabe and Sebastian – they haven’t slowed down. 

When she is away from the office, Dr. Eisenhuth remains active in the Twin Cities community through coaching her children’s community teams and by volunteering her time to local schools as well as Junior Achievement USA, an organization partnering with businesses and educators to bring hands-on experience to young people and help them thrive in the real world.
