About Us
A legacy of care, strengthened together.
Dentistry hasn’t always felt good. Maybe a past visit felt rushed, or you left unsure what was done and why. If so, you’re not alone. And it’s okay if it’s been a while.
For more than 20 years, Dr. Ben Griffiths has cared for Mapleton families with a simple idea: patients deserve the kind of care he would want for his own family. Today he works side by side with Dr. Dallin Thueson, so we can offer more without changing who we are.
That means time to talk, explanations in plain words, and no pressure. You will always understand your options before anything begins. See how we care for every age in family dentistry.
We know many of you have grown up with Dr. Griffiths, through mission farewells, new babies, and busy seasons of life. That history matters to us. Our shared goal is to honor that legacy while expanding how we serve you, offering more ways to keep care local, gentle, and personal.
