I came to Carpenter Dental with an emergency from out of town and was immediately taken care of after a holiday! The front desk was kind and the office was spotless. Dr. Thorsen and Alyssa gave clear information and treatment options that made a stressful situation much easier.

I moved to Rapid City recently and am so glad I picked Carpenter Dental. This is the first time I had a warm, thorough new patient appointment since I was a kid. I felt well informed and like I was more than just a number. Thank you Dr. Thorsen, Alyssa, and Hanah!
