About Our Rapid City Dental Practice

Superior Quality & Health

Infection prevention has never been more important in maintaining a safe and healthy dental office. Our top-of-the-line Hu-Friedy IMS Sterilization System ensures that our patient’s safety comes first. We go above and beyond the American Dental Association (ADA) and OSHA-recommended standards for cleanliness and safety by investing in the best sterilization and hygiene products and equipment to ensure your safety and comfort.

Prior to your visit, all equipment is disinfected in a designated area with state-of-the-art IMS sterilization technology. We also thoroughly sanitize each room between patients. You can rest assured that you are safe in our care.

Personalized, Gentle Care

Dr. Anderson practices with the belief that dentists are healthcare providers who also provide dental services. Your overall well-being is of the utmost importance to Dr. Anderson and our team, and we are dedicated to educating our patients on the effect their dental health has on their lives, and how to avoid common dental problems in the future.

If you have had a previous dental experience that was uncomfortable or painful, you will find solace under Dr. Anderson’s gentle dental care. Through the use of the latest technology and years of experience, he and his staff will provide you with personalized treatment that is pain- and anxiety-free.

KCP (Kinetic Cavity Preparation)

Whenever possible, Anderson Dental utilizes an innovative technology and technique to prepare a tooth for a small cavity filling, called Kinetic Cavity Preparation. A microscopically fine powder of food safe particles – long used in medicine, food and several popular whitening toothpastes – is used to gently spray away decay. Only a tiny amount of this microscopically fine powder is actually used, and most of it is immediately removed by our evacuation system.

This technology allows us to treat decay at an earlier stage without as much removal of healthy tooth material, preserving the strength of the tooth. Teeth treated this way may be less likely to require dental crowns in the future.

Treatment with the KCP is often used without anesthetic, and no daunting dental tools will be necessary.

Convenient Location

Our dental office is centrally located in the “Gap” in Rapid City, nestled in the beautiful Black Hills, just south of Haley Park, with ample free parking space available.

Information & Education

We will provide you with the knowledge you need to make well-informed decisions for your dental health. We take great care to stay up to date on your medical history, current medications, and any other factors that might affect your dental health and treatment.

Our intraoral camera and large viewing screen offers you the opportunity to see and understand what is needed to provide you with superior dental care. This camera’s powerful 30X magnification allows us to detect tooth decay in its earliest stages and is an extremely valuable tool in detecting fractures in teeth.

Kid-Friendly Dentistry

We understand that many children feel scared or uneasy about dental visits. Dr. Anderson’s fun and gentle demeanor will help your child have a positive experience during their visit. He and his staff take their roles as educators for good dental health seriously, taking the time to equip children with the knowledge needed for a lifetime of good oral habits.

We also offer “Happy Visits” to give our newest patients a chance to get to know our office and equipment to prepare them for their first exam. Our younger patients love to pick a surprise from our treasure chest at the end of each appointment!
