Northwind Dental
Northwind Dental has been an important part of the community for many years with Doctor Donald R. McLean serving as one of the first dentists in the valley. After the passing of Dr. McLean earlier last year, Dr. Thayne Dawson is honored to have the opportunity to carry on his legacy, and the same level of compassionate care to each of the patients at Northwind Dental.

Dr. Dawson understands that going to the dentist isn't something that most people look forward to, so he is committed to making your visit as pleasant and worry-free as possible. He takes the time to listen to your thoughts and concerns, and will create a treatment plan that is what you want. If you're looking for a remarkable dentist in Wasilla, who is gentle, compassionate and will listen to your concerns, you will find it with Dr. Dawson.

1. Lacie is a 3rd generation born and raised Alaskan and a 3rd generation dental professional. She and her husband love showing their 2 girls the beauty of this state and all it offers by hunting, hiking, camping and fishing. She believes in order to fully enjoy this state, you have to immerse yourself fully in all seasons.
Most of us have been hiding our smiles behind masks this past year. We've hidden our oral health (bad breath included) behind the mandatory masks, and subsequently many of us have felt disconnected or even isolated. We may have even forgotten what it feels like to see others smiling through conversations, or showing expressions and reactions with our whole face.

I FINALLY FOUND A DENTIST TO LOVE!!!!
I’m that person who DREADS dentists. When my partial dentures of four years went missing, I was forced to find a dentist here in the valley. It’s been a blessing to become a patient of Dr. Dawson and his wonderful crew! For the first time in my life, I don’t fear dental work, and I actually stay current on regular cleanings. Everyone here is so nice, gentle and truly makes it a painless visit.
Dr. Dawson’s work on my dentures is flawless. He takes every measure possible to assure they’re a perfect fit. They’re comfortable, look great, and I can

I had a emergency dental issue and needed a tooth pulled. Dr. Dawson and his staff got me in immediately! They were wonderful and welcoming as I had just moved here! I would 100% say give them a call if you need dental work. So glad they were there for me!

Dr. Dawson and his staff are warm, friendly people in an easy to find location. If you are looking for a dentist who is kind, patient and friendly, try Dr. Dawson. He saw our whole family with block appointments and everyone enjoyed their visit to the dentist. We are so happy we found Dr. Dawson. This is our family dentist, make him yours too!

I hadn't been to the dentist recently and was impressed with Dr. Dawson and his amazing, friendly and professional staff. They were great with my young children, one of which hasn't been to a dentist. I highly recommend Northwind Dental to anyone.

Those of us who have lived in the area are familiar with Dr McLean, and he will be missed. He would be proud to know that his legacy is in safe hands with Dr. Thayne Dawson, of the now Northwind Dental, who is a relatively new transplant to Alaska. He came here with his family and fits right in.
Professional, knowledgeable, and courteous, and with a good sense of humor. You'll realise quickly that you made the right choice in walking through those doors for yourself, and your loved ones.
If you are thinking about going to get work done, stop debating it and just stop in. You won't regret it,

Dr Dawson and his team were so amazing! I needed a tooth filled. It was a front tooth, so I was a little worried that it might show, but he did an amazing job matching the color of my teeth. Not to mention he made it feel way better! They made me feel like family!
