new patients
Your oral health is our passion.
We offer patient-focused dentistry.
From your toddler’s first checkup to complex restorative work, Garfield Dental is your home for lifelong oral health. And because every smile is different, we offer a full range of care under one roof.
It starts with prevention. Regular exams and professional cleanings catch small issues before they have a chance to grow.
When you want to feel more confident in your smile, we can help there too. Our cosmetic treatments like teeth whitening and custom veneers look natural and beautiful. And for patients who want straighter teeth without metal braces, Dr. G is your trusted Invisalign provider in Traverse City.
Sometimes teeth need a little extra help. That’s where our restorative treatments come in. Whether it’s a simple filling, a custom crown, or a bridge to replace missing teeth, we use high-quality materials that blend seamlessly with your natural smile.
And when the unexpected happens, we’re here for you. A toothache at midnight. Dental emergencies don’t follow a 9-to-5 schedule, and neither does our commitment to you. No matter your age or your dental history, you’ll find compassionate, thorough care here. We help you build a healthy smile you’ll keep for life.

MEET TOUR TRAVERSE DENTIST
Patient Centered Dental Care
Meet Dr. Kristen Guptill, DDS
Dr. Guptill, aka “Dr. G”practices dentistry differently. She believes the best care comes from blending two things: deep clinical knowledge and genuine, unhurried listening. That means when you sit in her chair, you’re not getting a lecture. You’re getting a conversation. She’ll explain your options clearly, answer every question, and build a plan that reflects your priorities. No pressure. No judgment. Just partnership.
This is patient-centered dentistry. And it’s the foundation of everything we do at Garfield Dental.
