I literally just got home from Swankhouse dental. Sweet merciful crocodile crap this place is awesome. I’m frankly shocked at how easy going it was and how friendly Dr. Swankhouse and Amber were. It had been a while and they walked me through everything with kindness and humor. I’m set for life. I’ll never fear going for check ups again.

Dr. Swankhouse and her team are simply the best. After a long absence from any dentist due to extreme anxiety, I called the office. From that first telephone conversation I knew I made the right choice. There was no shame or guilt for putting this off. They put me at ease, took things slowly and explained everything. The compassion Dr. Swankhouse showed gave me the strength I needed to proceed. After my cleaning, we went over a dental plan that worked best with my insurance  and budget. The prices are very reasonable. The most extensive work was replacing an old crown. Dr. Swankhouse took the time to make sure it was perfect and that I was 100% happy. My mouth is now healthy and I’m actually looking forward to my next 6 month cleaning. If you are looking for a compassionate dentist with a fantastic staff, call them. You found a keeper.

I really have enjoyed coming to Dr Swankhouse. She has kept a close eye on my implants that resulted from an unfortunate college bike accident and her team goes above and beyond Making you comfy. Amber was always asking me if I was ok and made my appointments less stressful for being at a dentist. Dr Swankhouse is easy to express concerns to and I appreciated that. I look forward to my next cleaning with Julie or Mary because they have both cleaned my teeth to perfection!

I cannot speak highly enough of Dr Swankhouse and her talented staff! I am a new patient to this clinic and thus far it has literally been a life changing experience. Until coming here I had such an intense fear of dentists that I went about 5 years since my last visit. Needless to say, I was expecting to get a lecture or to be shamed for my neglect. Thankfully, Dr Swankhouse is exceptionally kind and sympathetic to that feeling. She understands why people develop a phobia of dentists and she says and does all the right things to ease your worry. Beyond just being a compassionate soul, Dr. Swankhouse is very talented. In just a few visits she has helped make my mouth healthier and my smile something to be proud of. It is remarkable how much my view of dentist visits have changed since becoming a patient here. I no longer fear the dentist and now I actually look forward to my visits. I should also point out that this clinic is small and everyone that works here is fun and friendly. There is definitely a relaxed, positive vibe in the office. Whether you are just looking for an exceptional dentist or you are someone who has a fear of dentists (like I did), this is where you need to be.

Dr. Swankhouse and her staff are great and make you feel very much at ease.  She replaced a crown for me last year and it is still going strong.  Nothing is ever pushed on you and I like that.  The dentist is always a bit scary but not this one.  I have an appointment today to get my teeth cleaned which I love because makes your teeth sparkle!

I moved to Denver recently and chose Dr. Swankhouse because I really wanted a female dentist. I cannot give enough praise to her and everybody in her office! They are kind, knowledgable, and caring throughout every process. They make it clear that I am the decision maker in all of the care that I receive, which is very appreciated. I had a filling done for the first time today and they were comforting, clear, and so professional. I even got a chair massage and to listen to Pandora radio during the procedure! I want everybody who has teeth to go see Dr. Swankhouse!

I must say, I’ve been paranoid my entire adult life of visiting a dentist. At 41, my previous dentist appointment took place as a teenager. Afraid of bad news, pain, high costs, etc. Every single, solitary fear I had about visiting a dentist office was IMMEDIATELY removed, the moment I stepped into SWANKHOUSE DENTAL. Dr., Swankhouse, along with her assistant laid every detail out as to what they are going to go about my teeth, in the most optimistic, helpful and reassuring way possible. Between that, relaxing in a massage dentist’s chair and being provided relaxation music in my ears, while they went to work on my fillings, I literally fell asleep in the chair and DID NOT want it to end. Makes you actually wish you had additional mouth work needing done, the way they make one feel here(lol). I never in my wildest dreams would have thought an experience at the dentist’s office could be so very pleasant. KUDOS, Swankhouse Dental!!! So glad to have you as my regular dentist. Heck no, I’m not going anywhere else. From Scottie, an ecstatically happy patient! 🙂

I had the “pleasure” of having a root canal performed here last week. Besides initial shots to numb the area, it was a fairly pain-free experience. The medication wore off quickly and my mouth didn’t really feel bad at all. I recommend this dentist, although I have only had one experience here. The staff is very friendly and accommodating. The receptionist has a happy positive attitude and helped me out with a creative payment solution. Dr. Swankhouse (a.k.a. Dr. Awesome) is very knowledgeable, and gives clear explanations, which I find very helpful. UPDATE:( 6.19.19) – Boosted from 4 to 5 stars! After going to this dentist for a couple of years now; Dr. Swankhouse and her Staff deserve a 5-star rating! Dr. Swankhouse has done exceptional work for my mouth, and referred me to knowledgeable colleagues, when necessary. Her staff are all amazing, and are on-point when it comes to trying their best to make you comfortable..(especially *Amber*). Great job everyone.

I recently moved from NYC and was in need of extensive dental care (restorative work, implants, etc.) I found Dr. Swankhouse based on reviews, and I feel so lucky that I did! Dr. Swankhouse and her entire office are actual angels! She referred to an oral surgeon who I was very pleased with as well. I feel like I am getting the best care by the most genuine and knowledgable people.

Truly an outstanding dentist! I have sensitive teeth and a low pain tolerance, so I was anxious about finding a new dentist after I moved here. Dr. Swankhouse has a very gentle touch, superb skill with her instruments, and is excellent at explaining clearly about everything, during every step of treatment (including low-cost options.) My checkup & cleaning with Dr. Swankhouse may be the most comfortable–and least stressful–experience I’ve EVER HAD in a dental chair (and I’m age 62.) If you are searching for your “ideal dentist,” I strongly suggest you quit looking and call her office for an appointment. You’ll be glad you did. In case you think this all sounds “too good,” I’ll add the only “downside.” On the day of my visit, Dr. Swankhouse was training a brand-new receptionist; so please be patient with the front desk folks, O.K.? (I’m sure they’re doing better by now, anyhow.)
