Dr. Jeff Johnston, DDS

As a young person, Dr. Johnston spent lots of time in many different dental offices receiving treatment for an impacted front tooth, which required multiple dental specialties. After a few dental surgeries and years in braces, Dr. Johnston’s career interest gradually molded into place. At age 12, Dr. Johnston felt dentistry had chosen him and has been passionate about it ever since. Throughout high school and college undergrad he still continued to be in and out of dental offices every chance he could get, this time, learning everything he could about dentistry. Dr. Johnston graduated with a degree in Zoology at Texas Tech University. In 2004, Dr. Johnston achieved his dream of becoming a dentist, graduating from one of the top schools in dentistry, The University of Texas School of Dentistry at San Antonio. While in dental school, Dr. Johnston served 4 years with dental missions in Mexico. This extracurricular activity allowed for an early start and additional hands on training while in school. Before graduating, in 2003, Dr. Johnston did an internship at the Brownsville Community Health Clinic on the Mexico – Texas border. Here, Dr. Johnston received more additional hands on dental education tending to low income individuals with extensive dental needs. From 2004-2006, Dr. Johnston practiced in several dental offices in San Antonio, Texas. Each dental office experience taught Dr. Johnston different strategies of practicing dentistry and office environments. He also continued with medical missions, this time training students while in Mexico. In 2006, Dr. Johnston decided to move to Colorado, where he practiced for a busy practice for 2 years. unnamed (1) In 2008, Dr. Johnston decided to create Ascent Dental Group, the culmination of his lifelong dental journey.
