Meet Dr. Bowling
Benjamin Bowling, DDS
"I truly enjoy being a dentist, and treating people of all ages – from children to adults. Over time, I’ve gotten to know so many wonderful, diverse people, and that alone has made my career extremely enjoyable. Although I am fairly new to Long Lake Dental, I already feel a great connection to the community and to my patients, and I look forward to providing the families we work with the quality, caring dental care that they expect." - Dr. Bowling
Our staff is one of the most caring, dedicated groups of people I’ve ever had the opportunity to know, and I am proud to call them not only my team, but my friends.
Education and Continuing Education
- Bachelor of Business Administration in Finance – University of Iowa
- Doctor of Dental Science – University of Iowa
I choose to stay active in lifelong learning by participating in continuing education opportunities. As a dentist, I feel that it is important to stay up-to-date on the newest dental technologies and products in the dental field so that I can offer my patients the most effective treatments possible. I am a member of the Minnetonka Study Club and the South West Minneapolis Dental Implant Study Club, as well as an attendee of the annual Star of the North Dental Meeting.
Outside of the Practice
I grew up in Sumner, Iowa, a small rural town in the northeastern part of the state. After attending dental school, I relocated to Edina, Minnesota, where I have been living ever since. My wife, Kara, and I enjoy living in this wonderful community, and we are excited about raising our family in this area. We are particularly excited about welcoming our first child into the family in October! We also have a wonderful dog, named Wrigley. When I am not at the practice, I enjoy fishing, golfing, skiing (on water or on snow), or taking in a baseball or football game. I also enjoy grilling, cooking, and baking!
