Outside the Office

When he’s not creating beautiful smiles, Dr. Kottemann enjoys spending time with his wife, Laura, a pediatric dentist in the Anoka area. They have three children: twin girls, Valerie and Olivia, and one boy, Rian. They also have an incredibly naughty puppy named Louie.

Dr. Kottemann spends most of his time chasing his kids around the house but does enjoy basketball, water sports, and playing golf when he gets the chance.
