I would like to thank Dr. Kelson and his staff for an excellent experience! I needed a crown, due to a cracked tooth, and was quite anxious about having this procedure performed. However, having known this team for several years now, I was confident that I could trust them more than anyone else. I was not disappointed! They go to great lengths to ensure that their client's every need is not only met, but even anticipated ahead of time. Dr. Kelson is highly skilled, as well as personable, kind and gentle. My family and I have received top notch care at Dental Horizons and I would recommend this team of professionals to family and friends. Thank you again for helping to make this a positive experience! read more

When I finally stepped up to get back on track with my dental care, Emily really, really empowered me and kept me feeling like I could keep going, even when I wasn't making as much progress as I would like. I'm happy to say I'm finally on a consistent daily routine and seeing improvement to my gum health that a decade ago I thought was impossible read more

I don't usually write negative reviews. As a business owner, I understand that people can have negative experiences sometimes and our businesses' reputations are vital to our livelihood. However, I have given this practice several days now to follow up and attempt to respond to my concerns and they have not. I went in for an initial appt and was not clearly informed that I would not have a cleaning. They told me it would be $320 out of pocket for the first appt including full xrays (they never asked if I had xrays done in the last year or if I wanted them done - looking back I would have gotten some sent from my last dentist). They gave me a tour of their many exam rooms and only one dentist - which made me question the quality of their care. The hygienist was struggling with equipment that was not working properly and after explaining that I have a phobia of vomitting and don't like feeling like I may gag, it took a solid 45 minutes of xrays to get it done. She was doing the best she could but it was a really awful circumstance and she was struggling to keep her cool. There was no problem solving or attempt to move me to a different room. The dentist was informed of the issue and seemed only minimally interested in noticing it or fixing it. Next the dentist came in and roughly pushed his fingers into my mouth attempting to put his finger down my throat despite my saying I did not like or want him to do that. He didn't explain why he needed to do so (I have never had a dentist do this before) and stated he would do it when I wasn't paying attention. He then proceeded to quiz me about anxiety and seemed to be making some judgments about what was wrong with me and handed me some information about a tedx talk but didn't share what it was about or how he felt it related to me. Later I went home and watched it and it referred to people with tongue issues, breastfeeding, posture, swallowing and snoring, which I do not relate to AT ALL. I am not sure what he felt my problem was - I asked but he seemed to have his own agenda hidden in his mind which he did not communicate to me. I also didn't ask for support with anxiety (I am a psychotherapist and am clear and comfortable with the symptoms I experience). It was clear he needed to feel intelligent but failed to get to know me before diagnosing me with issues that were out of his scope of practice. It was super judgey and condescending. The lack of clarity was confusing as well. Then they ushered me to the front and said I would come back for a cleaning. When I explained to them that I didn't have clarity that I wouldn't get a cleaning, I got some defensiveness and some apologies. I explained that I felt swindled into their "membership plan" bc I had just paid $320 and didn't even get my teeth cleaned, just a horrid experience. Financially, it would have made sense to sign up for that deal, now that I had already sunk $320 into my care there, but I didn't want to return and felt I had just wasted a bunch of time and money. I feel like you should be able to consult with a dentist first before feeling like you are committed. This dentist and system made me feel I had no choice - no voice or say. I asked to speak to the dentist or someone and by the time they finished loudly sharing my concerns in the back office and finally returned to touch base with me 10 minutes later, I was crying. I explained that I didn't have the emotional bandwidth to discuss it in the office right then and there. The dentist said he wanted to resolve it and I said I just needed to leave at that point. They didn't offer to reduce or waive my fee, just let me go ahead and pay in full and leave crying. I would have expected that if they really cared to resolve the issues, they could understand that I was too overwhelmed to talk in that moment and that they should follow up by phone or email later that day or the next day. I feel like this dentist is focused more on making money and feeling valid as an expert than he is in his integrity and care of patients as a dentist. Oh - and they use business sales tactics to gain 5 star reviews. read more

Have been taking my daughter to Toothzone for years. We decided to try this place because it's closer to our home. Never have I picked her up in tears like I did today. The description she gave me of what happened to her was heartbreaking. Now we are taking a full day off school for her to recover from the trauma. We will never visit this place again. read more

I highly recommend Dental Horizons. Unfortunately I'm no stranger to having cavities filled, but ive never had a pain free experience before. Dr Kelson filled several cavities with no pain or discomfort, which has never happened for me before. I really appreciate his dedication to my comfort as a patient, and the friendliness of everyone at his office. read more

I just finished my first appointment at dental horizons and could not be happier. The team was wonderful from the moment I walked in the door until the moment I left. I even got a call from the dentist himself yesterday to see if I had any specific concerns that I wanted to discuss in advance! Today's exam was the most thorough exam I think I've ever had. Their equipment is state of the art and the office is very well equipped and clean. Along the way they explained everything they did and were very thoughtful about making recommendations and making sure that I was comfortable. They even have what they refer to as a "comfort menu" where they offer blankets, warm neck pillows, earbuds, etc. to help make your visit as comfortable as possible physically as well as emotionally. My first impression is that this practice deserves an A+. read more

Everyone I've dealt with at Dental Horizons has been professional and kind. During my regular check up I mentioned to Dr. Kelson that I was having trouble with a recently replaced filling, he repaired it that same day at no charge. read more

Awesome team! Highly recommend them to whole families! :) I was not the best with my care in the past and Everyone was great! Thanks so much! read more

Dental Horizons - Epic views here! - General Dentistry Near Me - Longmont, Colorado

Don't go unless you have perfect teeth, otherwise they make you feel like shit.

I don't recommend this dentist. Even though everyone is friendly, you will most likely end up spending money on unnecessary procedures. I tried this dentist after moving to Longmont. I have always had really healthy teeth, no cavities. They would not accept my X-rays from my last dentist because they weren't electronic, even though they were taken only 6 months prior. The dentist looked at my teeth and told me a list of concerns, which I had never heard before. They checked my insurance and told me that X-rays would be covered. This was very misleading, because what they didn't tell me was that I would have to pay a deductible and then they were covered at 80%. I ended up leaving and am so glad that I did! I went to Longmont Family Dentistry and had a great experience. They gladly accepted my X-rays from my previous dentist and had no concerns about my teeth. Watch out for dentists that oversell procedures, Dental Horizons seems to be one of them. read more

Dr. Josar is the man. The staff is always very courteous and kind. I highly recommend this practice for you dental needs.

I have always feared the dentist and worse the teeth cleaning. Until I came to Dental Horizons and had Kimmie as my hygienist!!! Wow amazing. The office is so peaceful the staff so kind. Recommend to all!! I drive from Brighton because they are the best. read more

The best dentist I have been too ever! I tried many other dentist's in Boulder but the people at dental horizons are so nice! They make sure you feel welcomed right when you walk through the door, I use to get nervous about going to the dentist but they made me feel so comfortable, this Dental practice is the best! They really make you feel like family here! I am recommending this place to anyone who is looking for a new dentist! read more

Went in today for a crown replacement. Dr. Kelson is skilled, knowledgable, and uses the latest technology to complete the procedure. Moreover, he was very concerned about my comfort, making sure that I didn't feel any pain. Stevie, his assistant during the procedure, was also skilled and sensitive to my state of mind like Dr. Kelson. This practice goes above and beyond in customer service, too. I didn't think my insurance would cover my treatment, but Judi, their the practice's financial person, investigated my coverage and discovered that my treatment would be covered. I highly recommend Dr. Kelson and his practice! read more

I hadn't been to the dentist in years and decided it was time to go. They made me feel welcome, and they didn't give me a bunch of grief when I told them that I hadn't been to a dentist in a long time. Sure, I needed some work done, and it was done in a very professional and friendly manner. When I arrived, they gave me a tour of the facility and explained every detail of what was going to take place. This was a huge departure from my previous dentist that would put me in a cubicle and have me wait for 1/2 hour before seeing me. I'm not sure about the negative comment left before, but I think she is confused about what dentist she saw... read more

They are a great staff and I loved Dr. Kelson! He was so gentle with me and really took the time to explain everything. They are very thorough and really care about their patients. Finding a dentist who is trustworthy can be challenging. However, you will not be disappointed at Dental Horizons. I am new to the area and feel so lucky to have found a new dentist on my first try! read more

Our family went to here a couple of times. The dentist practice was fine, however we soon left because of the never ending deluge of junk mail, spam e-mails, and sales pressure for add on services. We have not been there for at least 3 years, and still cannot get them to stop sending us spam and junk mail. No amount of "unsubscribe me" works with this practice. read more
