Summit Dental Care — dentist explaining oral care to a patient using a treatment model in a bright modern clinic

Every Service You Need

From your first cleaning to a full smile transformation — all under one roof in Durango.

What We Offer

Comprehensive dental services delivered by a team that knows your name.

Preventive Dentistry

Regular exams, professional cleanings, X-rays, sealants, and fluoride treatments. Catching problems early is always less expensive and less invasive than treating them late.

Teeth Whitening

Professional in-office whitening delivers results up to 8 shades lighter in a single visit. Take-home trays available for gradual brightening on your schedule.

Porcelain Veneers

Ultra-thin ceramic shells bonded to the front of teeth to correct chips, cracks, staining, or mild misalignment. Natural-looking results that last 10 to 15 years.

Dental Implants

Titanium posts that fuse with your jawbone to provide a permanent, stable base for crowns, bridges, or dentures. The gold standard for tooth replacement.

Invisalign Clear Aligners

Custom-fabricated clear trays that gradually shift teeth into alignment. Removable for eating and brushing. Most adult cases complete in 12–18 months.

Root Canal Therapy

Modern root canals are as comfortable as a filling. We use rotary instruments and local anesthesia to relieve pain, remove infection, and save your natural tooth.

Dental Crowns & Bridges

Same-day CEREC crowns fabricated in-office. No temporary crowns, no second appointment — your permanent restoration in a single visit.

Emergency Dentistry

Toothache, broken tooth, knocked-out tooth, or lost filling? Call us first thing — we keep slots reserved for same-day emergencies every weekday.

Children's Dentistry

Gentle first visits for toddlers through teens. We make kids feel safe and curious about their oral health — building habits that last a lifetime.

Your First Visit, Step by Step

We know a new dental office can feel uncertain. Here's exactly what to expect.

    Reserve your new patient appointment online in two minutes, or call (970) 555-0243. We'll confirm within one business hour.

    We email digital intake forms before your visit so paperwork doesn't eat into your appointment time.

  3. Comprehensive Exam & X-Rays

    Dr. Navarro reviews your full health history, takes digital X-rays, and performs a thorough exam of teeth, gums, and bite.

  4. Clear Treatment Plan

    Before anything is scheduled, you receive a written treatment plan with costs, timeline, and insurance coverage — no pressure, no surprises.

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to what patients ask us most.

How often should I come in for a cleaning?

Most patients benefit from cleanings every six months. If you have a history of gum disease or are at higher risk for cavities, we may recommend quarterly visits. We'll tell you what makes sense for your specific situation.

Does Summit accept my insurance?

We're in-network with Delta Dental, Cigna, Aetna, MetLife, United Concordia, and most major PPO plans. We also work with out-of-network benefits and will file your claims regardless. Call us with your plan name and we'll verify coverage before your appointment.

Do you see patients with dental anxiety?

Absolutely — and you're in good company. We offer nitrous oxide sedation and oral sedation for patients who need extra comfort. Many of our most nervous patients are now our most loyal ones.

Can I get a same-day crown?

Yes. Our CEREC system designs, mills, and fits permanent porcelain crowns in a single appointment. Most crowns are done in under two hours — no temporaries, no second visit.

Is teeth whitening safe for sensitive teeth?

Yes, when done professionally. We assess sensitivity before treatment and can adjust concentration or frequency. Take-home trays with lower-concentration gel are often better for sensitive patients than in-office whitening.
