Smile With Ease Thanks to Comprehensive, Patient-Focused Care

Your smile is more than just a feature. It plays a key role in your comfort, communication, and confidence every day. That’s why it’s important to partner with a dental team that offers full-spectrum care tailored to you.

At Priest River Dental in Rathdrum, ID, we go beyond the basics to help you enjoy a healthy smile for years to come. Come to us for these services:

  • General Dental Care – Our team emphasizes prevention with thorough cleanings, detailed exams, and early detection of gum issues. Protective services like sealants and fluoride applications help keep your teeth strong and resilient.
  • Custom Mouthguards – Whether you grind your teeth or need protection during sports, we create custom-fit mouthguards that safeguard your smile and promote better sleep.
  • Cosmetic Options – Choose from teeth whitening, bonding, or veneers to enhance your smile’s appearance while maintaining a natural look that fits your preferences.
  • Orthodontic Care – We provide discreet clear aligners that straighten your teeth comfortably and conveniently, often with shorter treatment times than traditional braces.
  • Restorative Solutions – If you’re dealing with pain or damage, we offer fillings, crowns, and other restorations that repair your teeth while preserving your bite and comfort.
  • Tooth Replacement – Replace missing teeth with durable implants, fixed bridges, or modern dentures. We’ll help you choose the right option for your lifestyle and goals.

Many patients feel uneasy about visiting the dentist. That’s why we’ve created an environment focused on comfort and peace of mind. We also offer gentle sedation techniques that make treatment simple and stress-free.

Choosing the right dentist means finding someone you trust for long-term, compassionate care. At Priest River Dental, we offer advanced, comfortable dentistry in a welcoming setting — perfect for families, patients with anxiety, and those without insurance.
