Dentistry that feels like home.
Welcome to Riverside Dental Care
The dental practice patients trust
in Saint Peter, MN
There's something to be said for a dental office that feels like it actually knows you. At Riverside Dental Care, we've been caring for families in Saint Peter and the surrounding communities long enough to have treated parents and their kids, and sometimes their kids' kids. We're your neighbors, and we take that seriously. Whether you're coming in for a routine cleaning or walking out the same day with a brand-new crown, our goal is always the same: make you feel comfortable, keep you informed, and send you home with a smile you're proud of.
Meet the doctors
Dentists who've been in your shoes
Dr. Bethany Whittier and Dr. Rasmussen bring experience, compassion, and a personal connection to the care they provide at Riverside Dental Care. Dr. Whittier grew up in St. Peter and was inspired to become a dentist after experiencing the kindness and empathy of a dentist who repaired her front teeth after a high school accident. Dr. Rasmussen grew up in Northfield and has been a patient at Riverside Dental Care his whole life, which gives him a deep appreciation for the practice and the community it serves. Together, they focus on helping patients feel at ease while improving function, confidence, and long-term oral health. Their approach reflects the practice goal of making visits feel warm, straightforward, and less stressful.

Everything your smile needs, all in one place
Same-day dental crowns
Riverside Dental Care is the only office in Saint Peter that offers same-day crowns. With in-house technology including the latest intraoral scanning technology and a crown mill, patients can restore their smiles with fewer steps and less disruption to their schedules.
Cleanings & hygiene
Routine cleanings and preventive care help patients protect their dental health and catch small concerns before they become bigger, more costly problems. Regular visits support healthier teeth and gums while giving you peace of mind about your smile.
Dental implant restorations
For patients who already have dental implants or need implant restorations, Riverside Dental Care provides restorative care designed to improve function and appearance. Implant restorations can help you chew more comfortably and feel more confident in your everyday smile.
Restorative dentistry
From fillings and crowns to bridges and dentures, restorative dentistry helps repair damaged or missing teeth so patients can get back to eating, speaking, and smiling with confidence. Our goal is to make these everyday repairs feel as seamless and stress-free as possible.
