Get to Know Dr. Archibald

Dedicated to Service

Dr. Geoffrey Archibald grew up in a small town in central Wisconsin. After graduating high school, he came to the Twin Cities where he received his BS and eventually DDS from the University of Minnesota. He took a two year pause in his education to serve as a missionary for his church in southern Britain, and during his first year of dental school, served with the Army National Guard at the beginning of the war in Iraq. 

Dr. Archibald’s experience in dentistry has been a privilege. He’s been able to connect with patients and help them improve their quality of life, while also becoming an integral part of his local community. 

In his free time, Dr. Archibald enjoys spending time with his wife Molly whom he met while attending school in Minneapolis, their four wonderful children, and two mischievous yet cute cats.

Get to Know Dr. Youngner

A Passion for dentistry

Dr. Eric Younger grew up in Maple Grove, MN. He attended the University of St. Thomas for his undergraduate and later received his DDS from the University of Minnesota. Before he attended dental school, Dr. Younger was able to spend time in the Philippines doing marine biology research and exploring the country’s rich culture.

He is most passionate about creating lasting and trusting bonds with patients and their families, and being able to work with his hands. 

When he’s not in the office, Dr. Younger loves spending time with his family: his wife Kaija, who is a veterinarian and whom he met in an organic chemistry lab in college; their daughter, two sons and a cat. Dr. Younger also enjoys golfing, skiing, mountain biking, hiking, and camping.

Get to Know Dr. Kyle Merrick

Elevating the Dental Experience

Dr. Kyle Merrick grew up in Duluth, MN with his parents and two sisters, all who attended the same undergraduate school — Gustavus Adolphus College in Saint Peter. He later went on to complete dental school at the University of Minnesota Twin Cities where he was able to travel to Antigua, Guatemala with some classmates and provide dental treatment to those in need. 

Dr. Kyle knew from an early age that he wanted to pursue dentistry since he had a passion for art, working with his hands, and meeting new people. He feels most rewarded when he can help others achieve their oral health goals and make the dentist setting a more comfortable and enjoyable one.  

In his free time, Dr. Kyle loves spending time with his wife Alaina whom he met during his last year of dental school. Together, they enjoy hiking, traveling, playing pickleball, camping, hunting, and fishing. During the summer, he also likes to spend time at his family's cabin on Lake Vermilion in Cook, MN.
