Dr. Melissa Zettler graduated from the University of Minnesota Dental School in 1995, and completed a general practice residency at the Minneapolis Veterans Hospital. She earned her FAGD in 2010, her fellowship in the ICOI in 2015, and her PADI Open Water Diver in 2008. Dr. Zettler loves learning, and is known to use good continuing education as a great opportunity to get away (Please don’t tell her husband or two teenage daughters, but feel free to join her for some implant training in Brazil in 2019!).

Dr. Zettler founded Cherrywood Dental Care in 1997. She mentors at Spear Education in Arizona, and leads a Spear study club in Minnesota. It’s true — she’s a full-on dental nerd.
