About Mountain Stream Dental
Mountain Stream Dental operates on Harlow Road in Springfield, Oregon. Implants are considered by many dentists the most durable way to replace a missing tooth, since the titanium post fuses with the jaw bone over several months and then supports a crown that functions much like a natural tooth. Enough healthy bone is the main prerequisite, and a graft can build that up first if needed.
Emergency dental care covers sudden problems that will not wait for a routine appointment — severe pain, a knocked-out or fractured tooth, swelling, or a lost filling that leaves a tooth exposed. Same-day or urgent appointments are the point of an emergency service, rather than the standard multi-week booking window.
Periodontics is the specialty focused on the gums and the bone supporting the teeth, handling more advanced gum disease, related surgical treatment, and — in many practices — dental implant placement, which sits naturally alongside that training.
Periodontal care focuses on the health of the gums and the bone that supports the teeth, from preventive gum health checks through to deeper treatment once disease has taken hold. Left untreated, gum disease is a leading cause of adult tooth loss, which is why it is monitored at every checkup.
A filling repairs a tooth after decay has been cleaned out, most often using tooth-coloured composite resin that is shaped and bonded to blend with the surrounding tooth. It is usually completed in a single appointment and is one of the most routine restorative procedures in dentistry.
An extraction removes a tooth that cannot reasonably be saved — from advanced decay, severe infection, impaction, or overcrowding ahead of orthodontic treatment. Done under local anaesthetic, the appointment itself is not painful, though soreness for a few days afterward is normal.
Affordable care means the practice sets out to make treatment accessible on a self-pay basis or through a payment arrangement, rather than assuming every patient arrives with comprehensive insurance. It is worth asking directly what options exist before assuming a needed treatment is out of reach.

Dental visits are never fun. I needed some pretty serious work I was nervous but the dentist and assistant fixed my 2 front teeth. I am beyond thrilled I can smile again. I recommend Mountain stream dental to anyone who wants exceptional service!! Tyler,
Probably the best dentist I’ve ever been to. They very clearly want to do what is best for patients. They do the best work, and for the best prices. Lovely experience, you wont regret going with them.
Just about the best dental experience you could hope for.
As always, Dr. Torgesen’s staff and Dr. Torgesen are very attentive, informative and pleasant to work with. I don’t think anyone loves going to the dentist and they make the experience as positive as possible.
The staff are very competent, professional and welcoming. Kristin made the appointment relaxing, informative and positive. Kudos to all.
Doctor Torgeson team completed transferring insurance, files and records before my appointment to have a filing done when i arrived. When asked by his assistant. I was unable to tell her what the problem was due to I had not pain or notes from the previous exam. She took an ex ray and the doctor was able to fine the filling needed. The excellent skill levels and professional team work completed this procedure without pain and record time spent. Thank you, I look foreword to being a patient! John Binford
I became a patient at Mountain Stream Dental after my daughter recommended them. I’m so glad she sent me their way! After neglecting my dental care for too long, they are helping me get back on track. I had a broken tooth that I thought they’d have to pull, but nope, I got a beautiful crown instead!
I have been going to Mountain Stream Dental since back in the day when it was Dr. Naylor and both my husband and I have been really happy with Dr Torgeson as well! After a period of not being able to get crucial work done due to lack of insurance we both went back with a lot of issues that needed addressed and I am someone with very very very high dental anxiety especially of the unknown and was facing a lot all at once and some pretty hard work needing to be done. Everyone there has been so amazing, patient and kind during my moments of high anxiety. They work with what you are comfortable with and go out of their way to ease anxieties and help you. I always feel seen and heard and cared for. Emma (and Harlee) at the front desk has helped me so much and is so caring and willing to truly go above and beyond to make you feel safe and heard, and I am so thankful. Recently, I needed a deep cleaning (not at all bad or what I had built it up to be in my head and I feel amazing after, so glad I did it), and was scared and the new hygienist, Melissa is hands down the BEST hygienist I have ever had and such an amazing, caring person. I instantly felt safe and truly cared for on a soul deep level and never want anyone else again. I now am at a better place in my dental journey knowing I have Melissa, Emma, Harlee and the entire team there for me. Dr Torgeson has done a lot of work for my husband and I with more on the horizon and we both wouldn't want anyone else. He is so kind and you can tell he really wants to help you feel and look your best. 12/10 recommend Mountain Stream Dental especially if you have anxiety/have had bad experiences in the past.
I highly recommend the Mountain Stream Dental team!! I moved to the area almost two years ago and had a challenge finding a dentist until now! I get very nervous going in, even for a cleaning but Melissa was my hygienist and she was wonderful!! She’s friendly, informative, gentle and made me feel comfortable! I feel so grateful!!
After having such a horrible experience at Aspen dental I was very apprehensive about dentists. Well my teeth needed some help Kristen went above and beyond to make me feel heard and understood. The dentist was great funny light never once did he make me feel like I was wasting his time he was kind and very easy to talk to I will be returning ❤️
