Every person I have interacted with at this practice has been extremely kind and helpful! The hygienist Jessica was super helpful, my teeth were in rough shape and she was kind and not judgmental about it at all! Dr. Clark is hands down the best dentist I’ve ever dealt with! He is friendly and genuinely cares about his patients and his work is excellent! I’m shocked to say it but I don’t dread going to the dentist anymore as long as I’m coming to these guys!

Was traveling through Durango on vacation and had a crown come off during dinner. I searched for dentists near me and noticed Dr. Clark on Google with years of nothing but 5-star reviews. I called first thing in the morning, they quickly got me in and out. Dr. Clark and staff saw to my needs and are fantastic. They will put you at ease and make you feel like you are their only patient. If you are in the area and need dental services, I can't more highly recommend them.

My partner had a broken tooth, and we were able to get an appointment for consultation the very next day. Once the consultation was done, she was able to get an extraction done a couple of hours later. During the procedure, the entire team was super considerate with her dental anxiety, and put in extra time and care to make sure she was comfortable, even getting her a blanket! My partner also was able to get in contact with the office outside of regular hours, and the dentist called her to check in on the weekend, with a follow-up the next business day. Cannot recommend this office enough, especially for those who might be weary of dental work. Thank you all so so much!

Dr. Taylor Clark was AMAZING! My family and I were on vacation from MN to Durango August 2020, and was referred to Dr. Clark from a family member that lives in Durango. Dr. Clark was so gracious by helping us after hours as my daughter had slipped on the edge of a boat and chipped her 2 front teeth. Dr. Clark gave her 2 emergency fillings that same night. When we came back to MN and followed up with our primary dentist, he was amazed by his work and the ability to color match so close to her actual teeth color. THANK YOU Dr. Clark and his office for the emergency care and follow-up after. We appreciate you so very much!
