Hi! I’m Dr. Kyle Perkins!

Learn more about me!

I bring a unique combination of expertise and compassion to Aspire Dental. My extensive training in specialized procedures, including new smile makeovers, dental implants, wisdom teeth removal, grafting, and sedation dentistry, allows me to provide comprehensive care for patients with complex dental needs. Growing up on a ranch in Pagosa Springs, Colorado, I have developed the work ethic and dedication that define my approach to patient care today.

My path to dentistry began as a collegiate basketball player at the University of Colorado in Colorado Springs before transferring to the University of Utah in Salt Lake City. After earning my undergraduate degree in Emergency Medical Services Management, I continued at the University of Utah School of Dentistry, where I graduated with honors. My commitment to excellence led me to complete an intensive 18-month advanced training program focused on full mouth implant reconstructive surgery, prosthetics, and IV sedation.

Patients consistently provide praise for my gentle approach and ability to make even the most anxious patients feel comfortable. My expertise in sedation dentistry particularly benefits those who have avoided dental care due to fear or anxiety. Whether performing a complex All-on-4 procedure or a routine examination, I take time to listen to each patient’s concerns and develop personalized treatment plans. At Aspire Dental, I’ll combine state-of-the-art technology with compassionate care to create beautiful, healthy smiles for patients throughout North Dakota.
