New Technology / Air Abrasion

New technology has given us another gift in the form of AIR ABRASION. This instrument allows us to gently remove decay in a very precise manner while preserving the majority of healthy tooth structure. For small cavities this means up to 10 times the amount of healthy tooth saved over the old “drill” and silver fillings. The cleaned cavity is then filled with a tooth colored composite.

The best part is that if the cavities are found early, before they get big, they can be painlessly filled without the annoying numbness we used to associate with dental fillings. The procedure feels like air being blown onto the tooth. In fact that is exactly what it is: a stream of air carries a fine powder against the cavity which wears away the decay.

Get Your Teeth Checked at min. 2x/Yr

The important thing to remember is to get your teeth checked early and often (at least twice a year) so that cavities can be found when they are small enough for this revolutionary new procedure.

No Fear Dentistry

We believe that everyone deserves a life of pain free dental health and a beautiful smile. We have dedicated our lives to helping our patients achieve that goal. Our motto is:

“The art of dentistry: gently restoring the health that God created.”

We do just about everything from crowns and fillings to root canals and implants.

I’ve had consistently great experiences with Pagosa Smiles Dentistry over the years. The first time I went in, I had a chipped tooth that needed attention quickly, and they got me in right away and took care of it before it could turn into a bigger issue. The quality of the work was excellent, and everything felt smooth and stress-free.

After moving back to Pagosa Springs recently, I decided to go back—and I’m really glad I did. They’ve been just as professional, efficient, and easy to work with as I remembered. I recently started Fastbraces with them, and the experience has been significantly better than the traditional braces I had growing up. It’s been more comfortable, quicker, and overall much less of a hassle.

It’s rare to find a dental office that maintains this level of care and consistency over time. Highly recommend Pagosa Smiles Dentistry to anyone looking for reliable, high-quality dental care in the area.

I am thrilled with the customer service provided by this clinic. My daughter had an emergency type situation, and they were able to get her in immediately. Every single person we came in contact with at the office was very kind and helpful. My daughter even mentioned after the appointment how nice the doctor was, pretty impressive coming from a teenager. The clinic is extremely clean and well organized. This clinic will be our dentist from here on out. Thank you all!

Your comfort and satisfaction at Pagosa Smiles' family dentistry is our top priority. Our dental office team has extensive experience providing family dentistry to the Pagosa Springs community and surrounding areas.
