Dr. Emily Marx, DDS
A personal approach to dentistry

A judgment-free space for every patient.

Dr. Marx understands that dental visits can be overwhelming, especially for those who may have had past dental anxiety or have been away from the dentist for a while. That’s why she creates a judgment-free space where every patient is treated with care, respect, and personalized attention.

“I believe everyone deserves to smile with confidence. My goal is to help patients feel at ease, whether they’re here for a routine cleaning or a complex procedure.”

I have been to some ATROCIOUS dentist practices in the past - ones who have shamed me, insulted me, name-called and/or hurt me while working, with nothing more than an "oops" or eye-roll. Suffice to say, I avoid going when I can. I had to bite the bullet and find one for some pretty bad tooth pain recently. My search started exactly as I feared: the first place I called shamed me for my method of payment and then for declining to sign up for their ludicrous dental plan. I cannot stress how disheartened I was when I finally found this place and called here - and what a NIGHT and DAY difference! From my first phone call with them to my most recent appointment, Marx Family Dental has been a DREAM. Pretty much everyone here has been so sweet, considerate, friendly - exactly the atmosphere you want at the dentist. The assistants are nice, the dentists are fantastic, and the front desk ladies are absolute sweethearts (I've never been to a dentistry where the WHOLE team is kind)! Could not sing their praises more, highly, highly recommend. It's so weird for me to not dread going to the dentist, but I don't here!

The staff and owners are completely rude, inconsiderate, and insensitive. My brother passed away in May. He was sent mail for marketing. My mother called to discuss marking strategy. She was sent to one of the owners, who was a woman. The woman suggested that my mother should get losing her son, because she got over losing her husband… 10 years ago. Disgusting behavior.

It took a phone call to know that I would love this office! And I was so right, great group! They are knowledgeable and have patience for the scaredy cats, thank you, ladies. Look forward to my return!

I'm a new patient here and I was truly impressed on every step of my appointment. They were on time, very pleasant and went above and beyond with my treatment. My wife's family has been going here for decades so they came highly recommended and lived up to it. .

I’m was so nervous going into this appointment. I’ll be honest it had been a hot minute since I’d been to the dentist due to the last experience I had. This was such a great experience! Everyone was nice and gentle and I look forward to coming back!

Rare to visit any business where everyone is welcoming and caring, even rarer to find a dentist with such a great crew. My new dentist for sure

I just recently moved to the Northland and received a welcome letter from Marx Family Dental. My husband is family friends with the Marx family, so I figured I’d check it out. I definitely have some anxiety around the dentist due to some mixed experiences in the past with other dental offices. Everyone I interacted with was so friendly and it put me at ease. I also appreciated that the office itself wasn’t so bright white & sterile-feeling like my last few dental offices have been. It was much more comfortable and welcoming. My hygienist Natasha was amazing. She somehow even made the bite-wing x-rays seem like nothing, when they’ve always activated my gag reflex up until now. All around a great first experience with them!

I had a wonderful experience with Dr. Cox and Tyler! I have always been afraid of the dentist due to past experiences with pain, and this visit was PAIN FREE (mind you my appointment was for a crown!) Definitely recommend for anyone looking for a new dentist!

I found this dentist from a Groupon but it’s good marketing for them because they’ve earned my business as a recurring customer! The office was on time and everyone was very personable and professional. I had Rima (dental assistant), Jacqueline (hygienist) and Dr. Cox. They all did a fantastic job explaining everything and going into a high level of detail on what they were seeing/recommending and why. I only wish I’d found this team/office years earlier. Highly recommend!
