Growth on the west side
St. Louis Park grew quickly after the Second World War. Between 1950 and 1956, 66 new subdivisions were recorded to make room for about 2,700 new homes, and in 1953 and 1954 the city annexed the last two parcels, Kilmer and Shelard Park, which had been part of Minnetonka. The Knollwood Mall was later expanded on the site of the old Park Knoll Elementary School. Several of the offices on this side sit along Highway 7, with others on the avenues running north and south of it.
Choosing an office on the west side
Start with the practical questions the American Dental Association recommends: is the schedule convenient, is the office easy to get to from your home or job, and are there arrangements for emergencies after hours? Call two offices and ask whether they are accepting new patients, which insurance plans they take and what a first visit costs without insurance. For a list of questions to ask on the phone, see choosing a dentist.
If you need a family dentist for children, read kids and teeth, which explains when to schedule the first visit. Ruby Dental, in this part of town, includes emergency dental service among its services, so see dental emergencies for what to do when a tooth breaks.
Highway 7 and beyond
Highway 7 runs through St. Louis Park toward Minnetonka and Hopkins, so offices here can be convenient for people living in those cities as well. Compare the west side with the east side if you travel between the two.
