Dentistry at a higher level

We’re proud to serve our community with dentistry that rises above the ordinary. At Summit Family Dental, we believe patients deserve more than quick appointments and one‑size‑fits‑all care. That’s why we focus on building real relationships, offering honest guidance, and creating an environment where every patient feels valued. Our commitment to higher‑level dentistry means we listen, we educate, and we treat every smile with the same care we’d give our own families.

The Best Dental Service for you

We provide comprehensive dental care for patients of all ages in a friendly, comfortably setting. Restorative, Cosmetic and Sedation Dentistry. Using modern technology and a gentle approach, we help you maintain a healthy, confident smile.

General Dental Care

Focuses on maintaining your oral health through routine exams, professional cleanings, and preventive treatments. Regular check-ups can help identify potential issues early on.

Sedation Dentistry

Sedation dentistry helps patients feel calm and comfortable during dental treatment. We offer two safe and effective options: nitrous oxide, and IV sedation. Administered by a trained professional.

Cosmetic Dentistry

Cosmetic dentistry focuses on enhancing the appearance of your smile by combining artistry with dental science. Through treatments that brighten, reshape, and restore teeth.

Why Choose Same‑Day Crowns? One visit convenience, Digital precision, No temporaries, Natural appearance, Durable & long lasting, Comfort focused experience.

Meet Our Doctor

Dr. Thompson grew up in rural New Mexico after being born in Durango, Colorado, spending his early years working on his family farm. A talented athlete, he played baseball nationwide and was even offered a spot with the Milwaukee Brewers, but chose to pursue his education instead, completing his collegiate baseball career with the UNM Lobos.

He earned his dental degree with honors from the University of Colorado School of Dental Medicine and completed advanced hospital-based training in Denver, gaining extensive experience in prosthodontics, IV sedation, oral surgery, implants, and endodontics. His excellence led to invitations to serve as chief resident and later resident faculty before returning home to New Mexico to join Summit Family Dental.

Dr. Thompson is an active member of numerous professional dental organizations and holds ACLS and PALS certifications. He continues to advance his skills through ongoing training with the prestigious Spear Education group.
Outside the office, he enjoys time with his family, mountain biking, reading, and exploring New Mexico’s vibrant cuisine. He is proud to provide high-quality dental care to the community he calls home.
