History
Established in 2018.
River’s End Dental has proudly served Fruita and the Grand Valley since 2018. Founded by Dr. Dustin Patrick, the practice was built around a simple goal: provide excellent dental care in a comfortable, welcoming environment.
Before opening River’s End Dental, Dr. Patrick worked in community health dentistry in Southwest Colorado, including serving as Dental Director of the Dove Creek Community Health Clinic. That experience helped shape his commitment to compassionate, personalized care.
Since opening, River’s End Dental has grown into a trusted family dental practice serving patients throughout Fruita and the surrounding communities. Today, the practice provides comprehensive care for patients of all ages.
Our mission remains the same: combine modern dentistry with a friendly, caring experience where patients feel comfortable, informed, and respected.
Meet the Business Owner: Dustin P.
Hello, I’m Dr. Dustin Patrick, and I’m the founder of River’s End Dental. I opened the practice in Fruita in 2018 because I wanted to create a dental office where patients feel comfortable, respected, and genuinely cared for. Before opening River’s End Dental, I worked in community health dentistry in Southwest Colorado, where I developed a real passion for helping people and building lasting relationships with my patients.
My wife, Aimee, and I are grateful to call Fruita home, along with our three children. Outside of dentistry, I enjoy spending time with my family, exploring the outdoors, and serving in my church.
I feel incredibly fortunate to be a dentist and to have the opportunity to care for so many wonderful families throughout the Grand Valley. Our practice has grown since 2018, but my goal has never changed: to treat every patient the way I would want my own family to be treated.
