 ABOUT Blue Earth Family Dental

Dr. Samantha Seys took over from Dr. Craig Gaugh and is happy to continue the high standard of care that was set in place by Dr. John Sawyer, the original dentist of Blue Earth Family Dental. Dr. Sawyer had a true passion for the cutting edge technology and treatments in dentistry and for the community of Blue Earth. Dr. Sawyer practiced in Blue Earth for 46 years, where he and his wife, Marty, raised their family. 

 

We work to continue these same passions in the office and by working to give back to the community of Blue Earth. Our office expanded with a location in Mapleton, MN. This allows us to help that community also maintain a dental office and makes us available more days of the week.  Dr. Madsen joined our team allowing us to grow even further! You will find our caring staff very helpful, just call and see how we can help you, 507-526-3111. You can call or text us!

​

We are growing and expanding to accommodate more and more patients.

Samantha Seys, DMD

"Being a general dentist is a great honor and allows me to really be available to help people in so many ways. I love all the aspects of dentistry so it would be hard to focus on just one. Surgery and extractions have been an interest for a long time, and now I am building more on growth and development for children. This area of interest also allows me to help adults with alternatives to CPAP devices and other airway concerns that adults have. Sleep and airway dentistry is something new and is very exciting. We take great pride in having a team of staff who are excited and passionate about these latest developments in dentistry. 
I have done extensive training in tethered oral tissue releases, working with local area myofunctional therapists. These are more commonly known as "tongue ties" and we have a CO2 laser that allows me to perform these releases at the highest level of care with minimal discomfort after the procedure. 
I am also very excited to be placing implants within our office. We use a guided surgery technique that allows us predictable outcomes with great visualization of the bone and what the implant will look like at the end of a procedure.
All these fun things are exciting and new but I take just as much pride in a simple filling. There is no area of dentistry that I don't find stimulating!"


 Dr. Seys lives just north of Mapleton near the farm where she grew up and her parents still live. She has three young children that keep her very busy and she enjoys traveling and staying active while adding in as much education to stay current in dentistry.
