About Southridge Dental

Southridge Dental is a dental practice on East Mendota Road in Inver Grove Heights, Minnesota. A dental implant replaces a missing tooth at the root, not just the crown — a small titanium post is placed in the jaw bone and, once it has integrated over a period of months, a replacement tooth is attached to it. It is generally the most durable option for a single missing tooth or several.

Clear aligners straighten teeth through a series of custom, removable trays, each worn for one to two weeks before moving to the next in the sequence. They suit mild to moderate crowding and spacing well, and are worn roughly twenty to twenty-two hours a day for treatment to stay on schedule.

Cosmetic dentistry covers treatment aimed primarily at appearance — whitening, veneers, bonding, and reshaping among the more common options — for patients who are less concerned with a problem that hurts than with how their smile looks day to day. The right combination depends on what specifically you would like to change.

Root canal treatment removes infected or inflamed tissue from inside a tooth, cleans and seals the space, and allows the natural tooth to be kept rather than extracted. Its reputation for being painful is largely outdated — carried out under local anaesthetic, it typically relieves pain rather than causing it.

Dentures replace some or all of the natural teeth in a jaw with a removable appliance, custom-fitted to the mouth. A full denture replaces every tooth; a partial fills gaps where some natural teeth remain. Because the jaw bone reshapes over time, dentures typically need adjusting or remaking periodically.

Pediatric dental care is built around treating children specifically — dentists with additional training in child development and behaviour management, and offices designed to make a first visit unintimidating. Guidance generally points to a child's first dental visit around age one or within six months of the first tooth.

Most dental offices these days treat their patients like numbers. You show up for your appointment, and after being left to wait way past your scheduled time, the dental team rushes you at every moment so they can do the exact same thing to the person after you. At Southridge Dental, that couldn’t be further away from how we do things! Dr. Sheryl Tandon treats people from all walks of life. She knows how to create an award winning smile with state of the art cosmetic dentistry. Dr. Tandon and he

This is the best experience that I've ever had with a dentist. I truly could not have had a more comfortable experience. Southridge dental took me in for a same-day appointment to address a time-sensitive dental situation. I initially came in for a quick examination with the intention of scheduling a follow-up appointment. They decided to take care of me on the spot. Few other details: 1. They were very skilled with managing my anxiety. 2. The billing was printed out and shared with me following the appointment. It was clear what my insurance covered, and what my expected copay would be. 3. The staff made me feel like family. 4. I will be continuing to come to this dentist/practice the rest of my life. ----- 5/5 stars -------

Dr. Worke is very knowledgeable and patient. Explains everything beforehand. Had an extraction and never felt anything. Willing to work with patients. The staff is also cheerful, and friendly I really would recommend this office to everyone.

Dr. Sheryl Tandon recently sold her practice to Dr. Matthew Worke. It is the same professional staff who worked for Dr. Tandon and they all really like working with Dr. Worke. This has made the transition feel very seemless with the same helpful and cheerful staff that has been at this practice for quite some time. I highly recommend Dr. Worke and the Team at Southridge Dental!

Amazing staff! From start to finish, I felt welcome and cared for. Everything occurred in a thorough and timely manner and I leave feeling good as new. Time is taken to explain things in great detail and make sure you are comfortable during your entire visit. Environment is nice and clean. 10 out of 10 A+! Superior experience.

I had a great experience with Dr. Tandon and the entire team. They were able to get my mom in very quickly when she was dealing with severe tooth pain, which we truly appreciated. Dr. Tandon was professional, kind, and made sure she felt comfortable throughout the visit. A special thank you to Katie, the assistant—she was incredibly gentle, patient, and caring. You can tell she genuinely cares about the patients. The entire staff was welcoming and helpful from start to finish. We’re very grateful for the care my mom received. Highly recommend this office!

Entire staff was very kind, patient and thorough. I can’t thank them enough for treating me like a person and making me comfortable. My biggest regret is not finding them sooner to be my primary dentist office. I was near tears in the chair because of how kind and compassionate the visit was. Thank you all for the safe space.

Staff was great! I’m brand new to the clinic, the staff was very welcoming, efficient, on time, pleasant, let me know what they were doing and why. Dr Tanden was careful to ask my wants and needs. Let me know what I needed to work on and what was I was doing well. Dr Tanden has a very pleasant manner. I appreciated having no pressure to have any work or crowns done. As they were not necessary at this time. I think I’ve made a good choice for my new dentist.
