Meet Holger P. Meiser
DDS
Doctor Holger P. Meiser graduated from the Ruprecht-Karls University School of Dentistry in Heidelberg, Germany in 2002. He completed residencies and fellowships in Advanced General Dentistry and Implant Dentistry at the Minnesota School of Dentistry. He earned a certificate in Contemporary Restorative and Esthetic Dentistry.
In 2009 he completed a year-long Maxi-course in Implant Dentistry at the Medical College of Georgia. Dr. Holger has completed the curriculums at the Pankey Institute in Key Biscayne, Florida, and the Kois Center in Seattle, Washington. He is a diplomate of the American Board of Aesthetic Dentistry. He has fulfilled the requirements to achieve a Mastership in the Academy of General Dentistry, Associate Fellowship in the American Academy of Implant Dentistry and Membership in the American Society of Dental Aesthetics.
He serves as adjunct faculty in the Implant Program at the University of Minnesota. In 2013 Dr. Meiser opened Holger Dental Group in Minnetonka, Minnesota. His dream was to build a modern dental practice, focusing on close relationships with our patients and applying the latest technologies and research to help achieve optimal dental and overall body health.
Dr. Holger lives with his wife Michelle (a pediatric dentist), his sons Jameson (11) and Bennett (7) and their dog Daisy in Maple Grove. He has been a member at Discover Strength in Plymouth for six years and enjoys road and mountain biking in the summer and snowboarding in winter. Their family enjoys spending time at their cabin in McGregor and cheering for the Minnesota Timberwolves and the Green Bay Packers (that is correct-Michelle is from Wisconsin).
