Dr. Thornell and all his staff are the best. It is the best Dentist I have ever had. All of them were so friendly and helpful and very clear on all the questions asked. Their office is spotless, the waiting room cozy. I had really bad teeth on top and had them pulled and a full upper inplant done in same day. I am afraid of dentists and Dr. Thornell gives you an IV Sedation which calms you down and makes it much easier. I am so proud of my new teeth and happy to smile again. I actually feel whole again. I can’t wait to bite into a hamburger, a carmel apple, corn on the Cobb and so much more.

Before writing this, I wanted to mention a couple of things that apply to me and I am sure also applies to many of you reading this. Prior to going to the Pagosa Dental Implant Center I was afraid to go to the dentist. The fear of the unknown and I do not tolerate pain very well. I was aware that I needed some extensive work resulting from waiting too long and putting band aids on some larger problems. About a year ago I contacted their office and made an appointment to have a consultation with Dr. Thornell. On that day the staff made me feel very welcome, I went for a full scan x-ray and then

I was extremely satisfied with Dr. Thornell and his staff from start to finish. I probably spent 5 years looking at my options and they were positive and supportive and I my case straight to the point which I felt was not totally there with others. I checked out clinics up to 10 hours away and in several countries and many pricepints.
With that said I really feel the research was worth it but I should not have waited so long but I was looking for perfection and I found it!

I absolutely LOVE Pagosa Dental Implant Center! I had anchored implants placed and everyone I encountered in the office was very nice and caring. My teeth were very painful before the placement of my implants. Now, I have a stellar, pain free smile. I can't say enough good things about Dr. Thornell and his team.

Very pleased with this dentist office. Myself and all my kids have been seen. The doctor and entire staff are all very kind and courteous. The office is extremely clean, the waiting room is cozy and comfortable but unfortunately you won’t be in there very long. I would definitely recommend this clinic.

Dr. Thornell and all his staff are the best I could have ever asked for. From my first appointment and every one since I have been very well cared for. I received full upper and lower implants and brand new teeth. The teeth I have always wanted. I could never say enough good about the office and staff. I would recommend them to anyone.

This was the best dental experience I have ever had and I'm 82 years old. They are friendly, helpful, directive, understanding and very sensitive to all of my physical and emotional concerns. I was so impressed with the way the assistant and Dr. worked together. The atmosphere was a feast for my eyes..so well decorated.
I will fly here from out of state to come to Pagosa Dental!
