About Southpointe Dental - Dr Susan Althoff

Dr. Althoff earns loyalty from patients switching offices mid-treatment and handles TMJ splints, jaw surgery prep, and young children with particular patience.

Southpointe Dental is a general dental practice that also offers TMJ treatment, and reviews describe Dr. Althoff spending months fine-tuning a TMJ splint and guiding a patient through jaw surgery and cosmetic dentistry over an extended process. A notable share of reviews come from patients who transferred mid-treatment from another office and from parents of young children, both groups describing a smooth adjustment. Staff are described as attentive with insurance details, and the office offers early morning and same-week emergency appointments.

Dr. Althoff along with her team have been absolutely amazing for our family. Our son has some sensory challenges and all the staff have been so kind, accommodating, and patient with him. He has a narrow palate and needed expansion, something I questioned would ever be possible given his sensory issues. Dr. Althoff presented a treatment plan, even creating a PowerPoint of options. She also has a network of provides she collaborates with to ensure the best treatment for her patients. After a couple trials with a “test” retainer, our son was finally able to tolerate the expander. He received his expander a few weeks ago and is tolerating it like a champ! I’m so grateful we found Dr. Althoff and so appreciate the great care they deliver to their patients, even to challenging patients like our family. A special thanks to Bonnie and Mackenzie also for their patience working with our son and answering all my many questions.

The service was excellent! In looking at my bill when I arrived home, it appears there was a courtesy adjustment of $373 which was totally unanticipated, yet very much appreciated!! Thank you Dr. Althoff!! Bruce Jensen
