Meet Dr. Henrichsen


Dr. Dan Henrichsen was raised in the northwestern suburbs of Philadelphia, PA. He traveled west to accomplish his undergraduate studies at Brigham Young University.

Dr. Henrichsen is fluent in both English and Spanish and enjoys caring for patients from all tongues and backgrounds. 
After completing training in Provo, Utah, he was schooled in dentistry at Temple University for four fantastic years and received his D.M.D. (Doctor of Dental Medicine) degree. It was during his Dental school education that he discovered his love of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery. He feels that the practice of this specialty was what he was truly born to do. His education continued with a one year Internship in Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery at the University of Iowa Hospitals and Clinics in Iowa City, Iowa. He received excellent training in outpatient and inpatient anesthesia, oral surgery and orthognathic (jaw) surgery.
