Great new dental office in Raton! The staff is very knowledgeable and the dentists take great care to explain the issues and the procedures to be performed along with top notch assistants. They seem especially great with nervous little kids, and the staff's personable and professional approach made all our visits easy. Very highly recommended!

P. A. H. Raton, New Mexico

Modern and friendly dental practice, very professional. Spotlessly clean reception area and patient rooms. My surgery involved repair of a filling another dentist had done, Dr. Steve Dixon did a great job. Heather (my hygienist and Dr Dixon's surgical assistant) was highly professional and had an excellent understanding of the surgical procedure. Superior in every way compared to a much more expensive dentist I had been seeing
