Meet Burnsville’s Dentists
Dr. Heidi Smith and Dr. Tanya Peterson
It has been a privilege to serve the Northwest Dakota County region including Burnsville, Apple Valley, Eagan, and surrounding areas for OVER 50 YEARS. Dr. Smith and Dr. Peterson met at a waterski show and have enjoyed working together for many years at Heart of the City Dental. They’re different from many big-box dental practices in that they strive to help their Minneapolis/St. Paul patients enjoy not only excellent oral health, but courteous service, and most of all FUN!
We believe we have the best community and patients, and we love getting to meet patients from the local area and from across the country who call our community home.

“When I injured an old crown recently on a long drive from Minneapolis MN to Phoenix AZ, I had a lot of tooth pain. I called Dr. Tanya’s emergency number. To my delight, she returned my call right away, providing a needed refill of my prescription and referral for two Endodontists in the Phoenix area. She went well beyond the extra effort for me.”
–The Norgaards
“I had my first dental appointment in years here today, and I was blown away by the care and service I received! As someone who, like many others, suffers from dental anxiety, I was very nervous about coming to my appointment today. I was instantly greeted by friendly staff that were genuine, kind, and helpful. The hygienist and doctor were incredibly skilled and friendly.”
–Wil H.
“Kind, friendly, extraordinarily skilled, and never in a hurry. From the receptionist through the entire staff, they made me feel welcome and expressed their happiness that I chose them as my dentist. Dani is an exceptional hygienist. I look forward to my next check-up; now that’s not something you hear often!”
