Meet Dr. Margaret Grothe
“I love building relationships with my patients to get to know them and discover the root cause of any issues they may have to create lasting solutions for their optimal oral health.”Dr. grothe
Dr. Maggie Grothe grew up in Barrington, IL wanting to become a country music singer. After taking a human physiology class her senior year of high school, she discovered her passion for the complexities of human physiology and healing the body. When she was introduced to dentistry, she fell in love with the unique combination of art and science and the ability to be proactive, not reactive, in her treatment. After working in the dental field for a few years, and at a total of 7 different offices, she was unhappy with the standard of culture and patient experience in other practices. With encouragement from her husband, Ben, she founded Root Dental to deliver the care she knows her patients deserve.
Dr. Grothe prioritizes building genuine relationships with each patient as she learns all about their likes and dislikes, family, pets, lifestyle, concerns, and ways to improve their health. She believes that while pharmaceuticals have a place in our healthcare system, they are excessively overused and the best healing comes from harnessing the power of the body, nutrition, and lifestyle and addressing the root cause of issues. She strives to help her patients improve their overall wellness through treating their oral health.
She graduated from the University of Iowa with her bachelor’s degree in French and Chemistry and earned her Doctor of Dental Medicine degree from Midwestern University.
