Dr. Steven Thompson

Well, I've been in dentistry for about 25 years now. And, you know, originally, back when I was in high school and trying to determine what I wanted to do with my life, I always knew that I enjoyed working with my hands. I wanted to be a business owner, and I wanted to be able to be in kind of in control of my destiny. I had braces as a kid. My orthodontist kind of inspired me to get into the dental field. The things that I enjoy most about being a dentist is, number one, the feeling that I get of taking a patient who is in pain or is having difficulty or a patient that is not happy with their appearance or their smile, and then transforming them into a healthy, happy patient that loves life, loves to smile, and is, you know, confident about their teeth and the future of their oral dentition. Well, you know, I think I was fortunate in that this is actually the only dental practice that I've ever practiced in. Right when I was out of dental school, this was my first job. So I was actually able to be very instrumental in building ImageCare into the successful practice that it is today. Some of my patients I've known for 25 years, and it's just kind of fun to seeing their kids grow up, find out what's going on in their lives, the changes, and so it's just, you know, every day, you know, it's fun interacting with our patients.
