independence with intention
Not just a dental practice.
A practice of our own.
At Gallery Dental, independent ownership means the freedom to make decisions close to home, guided by the patients we know, the team we believe in, and the kind of care we would want for our own families. There is no single right way to practice dentistry. This is the way we have thoughtfully chosen to practice ours.

01 | The owner & founders vision
Meet Dr. Kate DDS, gMCP
Duluth is home.
Born and raised in Duluth, Dr. Kathrynne “Kate” Dryke has built her practice around a deeply personal vision for healthcare. A vision where advanced dentistry and thoughtful innovation belong alongside conversations, relationships, and the feeling of truly being heard.
From implant surgery and laser dentistry to wellness-focused treatments, her commitment to continuing education takes her far beyond the Northland. But bringing that knowledge back home is what makes it meaningful.
As an independent owner, Dr. Kate can shape the details that matter: the technology chosen, the team culture nurtured, and the time taken to explain each patient's options.

Dr. Kate DDS, gMCP
Little details.
A meaningful difference.
01 | Personal
Care that starts with listening.
Your questions, priorities, and health goals inform the conversation. We explain options rather than rushing to a one-size-fits-all answer.
02 | considered
Technology with a purpose.
We choose modern tools because they can improve precision, comfort, and care—not simply because they're new.
03 | connected
People worth investing in.
Continuing education, collaboration, and a supported team are part of how we take care of the people who take care of you.
Our independence isn't about comparison. It's about the freedom to create the experience we believe in, one choice at a time.

02 | another voice, shared values
Meet Dr. Foss
A fresh perspective.
Great care grows when different experiences and perspectives come together. As Gallery Dental's associate dentist, Dr. Ariel Foss brings her own thoughtful approach to the practice, united by the same commitment to patient-centered dentistry.
With a background in electrical engineering and advanced training in modern restorative and laser techniques, Dr. Foss combines technical precision with creativity and genuine connection.
Raised in Illinois and shaped by childhood summers in northern Minnesota, she brings both a fresh perspective and a familiar appreciation for the Northland. Together, our doctors continue to learn from one another and expand what's possible for the people we serve.

care is more than what you
see on paper.
It happens in the conversations, the careful details, and the people who show up for you every day.
