Summit Dental Care was founded by Dr. Elena Navarro after 10 years in a large group practice where she grew frustrated by rushed appointments and impersonal care. Her vision was simple: build a practice small enough to know every patient by name, and thorough enough to treat every concern seriously.
Since opening in 2007, Summit has grown from a two-chair office to a full-service practice with six operatories, an in-house CT scanner, and a team of five clinicians — all while keeping the warm, unhurried culture that defined us from day one.
We invest in technology so appointments take less time and produce better outcomes. We invest in training so every patient interaction feels informed and respectful. And we invest in this community — because when you're healthy, Durango is stronger.
