Family Dentistry With Straighter Smiles at Its Heart

One Meridian office where a routine cleaning, a set of braces, and a full smile makeover are all handled by a team that knows you by name.

Who We Are

A Fantastic Dental Experience, Start to Finish

Peterson Family Dentistry combines advanced dentistry with a gentle, friendly style that makes patients more comfortable than they expected to be. That is the whole premise. Some people arrive having avoided the dentist for years, and the first job is making the visit something they are willing to repeat.

The practice is built around a full range of care. Preventive exams and cleanings, fillings, crowns, implants, dentures, whitening, and veneers all happen here, alongside the braces and Invisalign treatment that Dr. Peterson considers his life’s work. A patient can move from a cleaning to Invisalign to a restored back tooth without being referred out.

Time is the other piece. Dr. Peterson takes the time to get to know every patient one on one, and the team commits a generous amount of time to planning treatment so problems are caught while they are still small. Your needs and concerns set the agenda.

The People

Who You Will Meet

A dental office is only as good as the people in it. Ours has been together a long time.

Meet Dr. Peterson

Boston University School of Dentistry graduate, Boise native, and the reason straightening teeth sits at the center of this practice. Over 300 Invisalign and braces cases completed.

Read his full profile

Meet the Team

The hygienists, assistants, and coordinators you will see at every visit. Many have been here for a decade or more, and several chose this work because of their own experience in the chair.

Meet the team

One practice, whole family

Kids, teens, and adults are treated under one roof, so a family does not have to split appointments between a general dentist and a separate specialty office.

Straighter smiles at the center

Straightening teeth is the work Dr. Peterson loves most, and it shapes how the practice is built, from free consultations to the cases he takes on personally.

Rooted in the Treasure Valley

A Boise native came home to practice here. Patients come to the Meridian office from Boise, Kuna, Nampa, Eagle, and Star.

Our Philosophy

Straightening-Focused Family Dentistry

We believe a straighter smile is one of the most transformative things we can offer a patient, which is why straightening teeth is at the heart of everything we do. We love Invisalign for its comfort and aesthetics, and we love traditional braces for the compliance and precision they provide.

We treat kids, teens, and adults, and we work hard to make braces and Invisalign accessible and affordable for every family in the Treasure Valley.
