After 40 years of providing dental care in the Fargo, Moorhead and West Fargo area, Dr. Marvin Ugland decided it was time to retire. He sold his practice to Dr. James Johnson to continue the tradition of highquality dentistry. Then in January of 2018, Dr. Johnson helped fellow dentist Dr. James Colbert begin his journey to retirement. With that, Fargo Family Dentistry became Saving Smiles Dentistry, and our team grew! In June of 2019, Saving Smiles Dentistry welcomed Dr. Kenneth Bartholomew to the practice as an associate. Then in late 2021, Dr. Kenny became a partner in Saving Smiles Dentistry with Dr. Johnson.
We believe in creating a relaxing environment in our practice. Our office features many amenities to keep our patients as comfortable as possible. Our team loves to interact with all our patients, and help them understand their dental health and answer any questions they have.
In addition to creating a family friendly practice, Saving Smiles Dentistry is committed to treating patients whether they have dental insurance or not. To help families and individuals without insurance, we developed an in-house program that will help you receive discounts on our dental services.
Who is Saving Smiles?
Genuine care, grateful patients.
Our
Tagline
We want patients of all ages to see Saving Smiles as the go-to practice for genuine, high-quality dental care. One way to achieve this is by creating and utilizing a brand voice that is clear, consistent, and familiar. Based on our discovery session, we’ve identified three themes from which we can begin to build the Saving Smiles brand voice.
Warm & Welcoming
Let’s face it: no one gets excited to go to the dentist. Many of us have had less-than-pleasant experiences with cavities and cleanings, and some still avoid booking appointments at all costs. With this in mind, we want to avoid coming off as sterile and cold, the way many of us picture a dental practice in our heads. Rather, we want to convey a sense of warmth that shows patients that we will do everything we can to make their appointment as comfortable, painless, and enjoyable as possible.
Honest
We want people to know that with Saving Smiles, what they see on our website is what they will get. Whether this means being transparent about pricing or realistic about what to expect at an appointment (no matter how hard we try, a root canal isn’t going to be the best day of someone’s life), honesty is the best policy with our brand voice.
Wise (Yet Humble)
With a combined (#) years of experience in the field, we know what we are doing. We want to let our patients know that when they come to Saving Smiles, they are getting the highest quality dental service in the region–but we don’t want to come off like we are bragging. Like the celebrity role model we identified (Matthew McConaughey), we should let our expertise speak for itself.

The primary logo should be considered the first choice for all designs.
The logo should never be used at less than 1” wide.
The reversed (white) logo should be used when the background is too dark to allow the primary logo to be legible.
No elements which would reduce the legibility of the logo should encroach the space between the logo and the dashed-lines above. This area must always be a clear of any elements and is equal to the height of the letter “s”.
Logo Rules
Never alter the logo in any way including distortion, adding a drop shadow, or changing the proportions of the elements within the logo.
