About ONE LOOSE TOOTH | MOUNTAIN DENTAL - Natural Dentistry for children, teens & adults
Based on Main Street in Placerville, California, ONE LOOSE TOOTH | MOUNTAIN DENTAL - Natural Dentistry for children, teens & adults is a dental practice serving the area. Holistic, or biological, dentistry applies standard dental diagnosis and treatment within an approach that emphasises material choice and conservative treatment, considering oral health as connected to the body more broadly rather than treating the mouth in isolation.
Digital X-rays are a routine part of dental care because they show what a visual exam alone cannot — decay forming between teeth, bone loss below the gumline, and how developing adult teeth are positioned in children. They use a low radiation dose and are taken on a schedule matched to individual risk rather than at every single visit.
Left untreated, small dental problems tend not to stay small. A minor cavity that would have been a straightforward filling can progress to needing root canal treatment and a crown, and early gum inflammation that would have reversed with a good cleaning can progress toward bone loss around the teeth. Catching things early is generally the difference in both effort and cost.
Continuity matters in dental care — seeing the same practice over time means your history, X-rays, and any patterns in your oral health are already on file, rather than starting from scratch at each visit. That familiarity is part of what a regular dental home offers beyond any single appointment.
Dental anxiety is common, and most practices are used to working with nervous patients — through clear explanations of what is about to happen, a slower pace where needed, and sedation options for patients who want them. Avoiding the dentist out of anxiety tends to make eventual treatment more involved, not less.
Children benefit from starting dental visits early, generally by their first birthday or within six months of the first tooth coming through, mainly so they become familiar with the setting before any treatment is actually needed. Establishing that routine early tends to make ongoing checkups far less stressful for both child and parent.

They make going to the dentist fun! Their team is amazing and you can tell they have good chemistry and are in sync with each other. They treat you like you are famous.
Dr. Keith and staff are very professional. I know my daughter is getting the absolute best dental and ortho care. Everyone there is committed to giving each patient their absolute best and it shows.
If there were 6 out of 5 stars, I would rate that. Ashley is a fantastic hygienist, and Dr. Keith is also awesome. The whole office staff is professional, and everyone I interact with has been really nice. Highly recommend.
Wow! I had such a wonderful experience and I have a pretty severe case of dental anxiety. Dr Jake and the rest of the staff made me feel confident and calm. They helped me get through a procedure by making sure I was comfortable and asked if I needed a break throughout the work that was being done. They went above and beyond for me. I appreciate that so very much.
Everyone is so nice and transparent. I love the text option they have too! I will always recommend this place, for adults or kids- the best dentist I've ever come across.
Dr. Keith and the entire staff at Mountain Dental are so warm, kind, and professional. I have never had a disappointing experience in all the years of have been a patient. Dr. Keith is gentle, and excellent at explaining what he will be doing to help me. His team of assistants, hygienist, and office staff work exceptionally well together. I always feel I am in the best of care when I am in their office. I highly recommend Mountain Dental and One Loose Tooth.
Came here for a second opinion for my 4 year old. Was told by his previous dentist that he had a mouth full of cavities and every single one needed to be crowned and he would need to be put to sleep. Came to One Loose Tooth and was told that the cavities he had just needed simple fillings, no sedation needed. They were so kind and gently with my boy and I was uncomfortable at first as they don’t allow parents back during treatment but it’s for the best, honestly! When I was around, he wanted nothing to do with the dentist. As soon as he went back without me, he was a totally different kid. So chill and allowed them to do whatever they needed and didn’t bat an eye. I highly recommend One Loose Tooth and now will start taking my other child there as well going forward! Although they don’t take our insurance, I have NO problem paying out of pocket for the service, expertise, and clean and friendly environment. If you’ve been wondering if you should make the appointment with One Loose Tooth, do it!
I’m so stoked we learned about this practice. I appreciate their communication and fitting both my boys in at the same time on short notice (we asked to waitlist to get in sooner than first available and the front office was more than gracious in keeping me posted on cancellations). The office is also gorgeous and spacious with room to comfortably wait. Whoever painted the mural in the pediatric clinic area did a stellar job. I signed myself up to their adult dental care team on our next visit.
Awesome staff and Dr. Jake is very supportive and personable. I love the natural path to taking care of teeth and knowing they are looking out for the best long term plan. I would post a picture of my tooth but it's a touch gross, ah what the heck, here's a root canal I had done years go. First visit with Dr. Jake, he found it was infected and we went down the pulling out road. My sinuses have cleared up and feeling better!
Everyone here is incredible! Since our first visit we felt so welcomed and heard. I feel so comfortable bringing my baby here and the service / treatment he and I get is so professional yet like if they are taking care of their own family. The more visits we have the more comfortable my baby gets and I have very bad medical anxiety and they ease me into the procedures every time, talking to me about what their doing so it keeps my anxiety very low. I highly recommend them for adults and kids.
