About Cosic Dental: From Dentistry to Well-Being™
Kids get careful, honest exams here, from a toddler's first cleaning to gentle handling of an emergency visit, under siblings Dr. Vanja Cosic and Dr. Dunja Cosic-Carlson.
Cosic Dental is a general dental practice, now led by Dr. Vanja Cosic and Dr. Dunja Cosic-Carlson after the previous owners retired, that also offers Invisalign and early orthodontic treatment. Reviews describe multiple children in the same family being treated well over time, with young kids made comfortable through simple touches like letting a toddler handle the tools before her first cleaning. Beyond pediatric care, notes mention a holistic bent, including ozone use and offers of warm blankets or calming music for anxious patients, plus a habit of avoiding unnecessary procedures like root canals or extractions.

Never have I ever felt so cared for at a dentist office. The dental hygienist, Dr. D, and staff were all so kind, compassionate & patient with me. Took the time to explain audibly & visually & left time for me to ask questions. I’m telling everyone about my experience 10/10🙌🏻

Everyone here is so helpful and friendly, doesn't matter why you're here, they will make sure you have a good experience. The doctors are very nice and explain everything they're doing. The hygienists are friendly and helpful, the whole staff are great. I have received good care every time I've been in and my oral health is so much better now!

So grateful they got me in right away and extracted my tooth. Original appt was in 2 days, called me not 30 mins later to tell me they could see me the same afternoon. Dr Heggen and his assistant (forgive me I am not sure on her name) Were absolutely amazing. Helped me get through a fairly quick and easy extraction and had me out the door. Its hard to find good dentists with the care and compassion that Cosic has. The whole team is friendly and has a way of making you feel comfortable and plenty of reminders that dentistry doesn't have to be painful. Thank you for taking such great care of us. 🩷

Everyone is always so helpful and supportive with our visits. We love their honesty and gentleness, especially with our children. My daughter especially appreciated the care from Lilly on two occasions. The doctors are always patient and willing to answer questions.
