What Patients Are Saying
“I first met Dr. Peterson when my tooth broke on a Friday afternoon. They not only checked my tooth but stayed late to fix it. That same service and care has been given to me and my family since. The entire staff is exceptional at what they do.”

“The novocaine injections were painless and I watched a movie while they worked. Dr. Peterson took his time and did an excellent job. I left the office feeling great. I highly recommend Dr. Peterson’s office!”

Dr Peterson and his staff are knowledgable, thorough, and so kind! I have been going to his office for over two years now and I have been very satisfied with how they have taken care of me and I feel like my preventative plan is in place and is working because of their efforts. My son is getting his braces from this office as well - they can take care of the whole family. Thank you!

The best dental practice I have ever been to. They are kind, professional and actually care. They have a treatment coordinator that walks you through everything, insurance wise, there is no guessing. The dentist is SO nice, very knowledgeable and genuinely just wants to help you. The hygienists are very knowledgeable, fast and kind. The receptionist is kind and knowledgeable. I don’t live in Idaho I was just getting quick work done on a dead tooth and I am actually sad that I can’t have them as my dentist because I live in another state. If your insurance is accepted here, seriously go! I am praying that I will find as good as a dentist office as this place back in my hometown. They also accept kids and although I don’t have kids these people are so warm I wouldn’t second guess bringing my kids here.

When I first came to see Dr. Peterson and his team, I was feeling overwhelmed after having some poor-quality dental work done in Mexico. I had visited a few other dentists before, but unfortunately experienced a lot of judgment and a lack of compassion, which made the process of fixing my teeth even more difficult.
Finding Dr. Peterson was truly a blessing. From the very beginning, he and his staff were nothing but kind, gentle, and completely nonjudgmental. They made me feel safe, supported, and genuinely cared for every step of the way.
I needed extensive work done, including having a full dental bridge removed and redone, wisdom teeth extraction, and multiple fillings. Every single procedure was thoroughly explained to me with patience and respect, and to my surprise, completely painless!! I always felt informed, comfortable, and confident in my care.
Dr. Peterson and his entire team are simply incredible. They not only restored my smile, but also my confidence. I have never felt happier! I am beyond grateful to have found a dentist who treats patients with such compassion and understanding.
I will absolutely continue seeing Dr. Peterson for years to come and cannot recommend him enough. If you’re looking for a dentist who is truly kind, skilled, and life-changing, this is the place to go.

I don't know what I would do without Dr Peterson. After many years I actually don't mind going to the dentist. I am 70+ and have seen many dentists. Dr Peterson is the greatest ever. I recommend him as the very best in dentistry.

Amazing office from front to back! We have been with Dr Peterson for years and they always take amazing care of our family! My husband and both sons are patients and their office makes the experience seamless including booking appointments together for cleanings or anything else we need. He has fixed previous dental work for me in the past, and does such an amazing job and makes sure we are comfortable the entire time!!! Best dentist I have ever had!!! Thank you so much !! 💙

This has been my favorite dentist office I have ever been. It is as wonderful experience as going to the dentist could possibly be. The hygienist is the best! The doctor is also the best! Both are meticulous and friendly.

Truly a family dentist! This clinic was one of the only ones we could find that was open and flexible for our son's dentistry needs. Other clinics wouldn't work with us and only offered what they saw fit. The staff here is beyond friendly and understanding. If you are seeking an alternative for your current clinc or for a family dentist stop your search and get an appointment now! Thank you!

I have always been scared of going to a dentist that I have avoided going for years until I came across Peterson. I decided to give it a chance and I am happy to go every-time because I know I am receiving amazing work and care. I will continue to go here for all of my work and I am recommending them to family and friends.

My family has been going to this dentist for the last year or so and they've been great every time. The whole staff is very friendly and considerate making sure I'm comfortable. One thing I can say is that I've had a tooth with a root canal that has had no contact between that one and the one next to it and I always have had to floss more frequently between them. I addressed this with my previous dentist and he didn't seem to think that was an issue/didn't offer any solutions so I didn't think there was anything I could do. Here though, the hygienist actually suggested filling the tooth next to it to bump up against it more and fill the gap. I just took care of that here today and am glad to finally have it resolved! One other thing is coming up for me -- removal of all my wisdom teeth. This scares the crap out of me. Tops my fear list tbh but Dr. Peterson has really helped me feel like I can do it through his office with minimal difficulty or pain vs being put to sleep with an oral surgeon which will help ensure I have more insurance coverage for invisilign afterwards. I wouldn't be this trusting had it not been for all prior positive experiences with this dentist. It'll be scary for me but I trust him, which says a lot cause that's hard for me with dentists. Highly recommend!

I had a toothache & showed up without an appointment or even calling ahead. Fortunately, they'd had a cancelation. However, they assured me that even with out the cancelation, they would have seen me.
Dr. Peterson and his staff are all awesome and caring of their patients. I've been going there for several years now and I recommend them highly!

Seeking a new family dentist after your previous provider retired or were dissatisfied with impersonal, high-volume practices? Peterson Family Dentistry offers exceptional care. Dr. Peterson and his team provided prompt, effective treatment, including a 7 AM surgical extraction to address urgent pain. While Dr. Peterson's efficiency might initially seem rushed, this reflects a well-coordinated practice with highly skilled support staff. He consistently addresses patient questions thoroughly. Consider Peterson Family Dentistry for your family's dental needs. We did, and we will continue to see Dr. John Peterson and his astounding team.
