About Streamside Dental
Streamside Dental is a dental practice on Eagle Road in the Eagle-Vail area of Avon, Colorado. A dental implant replaces a missing tooth at the root, not just the crown — a small titanium post is placed in the jaw bone and, once it has integrated over a period of months, a replacement tooth is attached to it. It is generally the most durable option for a single missing tooth or several.
Clear aligners straighten teeth through a series of custom, removable trays, each worn for one to two weeks before moving to the next in the sequence. They suit mild to moderate crowding and spacing well, and are worn roughly twenty to twenty-two hours a day for treatment to stay on schedule.
A veneer is a thin custom shell bonded to the front of a tooth to change its shape, length, or colour, most often used to address chips, gaps, or discoloration that whitening alone cannot fix. Traditional veneers require a small amount of enamel to be removed, which makes the change permanent.
Cosmetic treatment is generally the least invasive branch of dentistry, built around changing how teeth look rather than fixing something broken. Whitening and bonding sit at the lighter end; veneers and reshaping involve more planning. Most cosmetic dental insurance excludes this kind of work, since it is elective rather than medically necessary.
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.
A crown covers an entire damaged tooth — used when too much structure is missing for a filling to hold reliably, whether from a large fracture, extensive decay, or after root canal treatment. It restores both the shape and the biting strength of the tooth underneath.

The staff is amazing and work really well together
WOW! Great office! Great dentist and fabulous dental hygienist.
I've been seeing Dr. Distelhorst since 1998. She is a dedicated practitioner. She has kept up with all of the advances in dentistry. She is interested in mentoring dentists. She is just a gem. Her new dental hygienist, Cheryl, is another gem with 30 plus years of experience. I had no discomfort while she cleaned my teeth, and that is a first for me. She is the best dental hygienist I've ever experienced. And I have like all of the dental hygienist at Dr. Distelhorst's practice, but Cheryl is the best.
I have been a patient for 30 years and I have spent hours in a dental chair so I know good dentistry. Streamside Dental is far superior to any other facility I have used. They are efficient, conscientious, caring and thorough. From cleanings to restorative work everyone is excellent at their job. I could not ask for better care,
Best experience I've ever had at any dentist office! Everyone is so sweet and kind. Dr. Dorothy Distelhorst is the best! Very thorough and caring to your personal needs. After explaining my past experiences with dentists, she went out of her way to make me as comfortable as possible and was so gentle! Id recommend her to anyone!
Best dentist I've ever visited! Dr. D is so understanding and patient. Her staff is amazing and always very careful and caring. I actually enjoy going to the dentist when I get to visit this office. The dental chairs face the creek and the view is amazing. I've tried other dentists in the Valley and am so happy to have found Streamside Dental...will never go anywhere else.
Most caring and comfortable experience I've ever had with a dentist. The whole staff is very helpful and welcoming. The care given was very personal. Dr. Dorothy showed true concern during and after my visit. She made every effort to help me understand all my options, even if it was a service she couldn't provide, she still guided me in the direction of other professionals that could. I also appreciated the effort and honesty she gave when discussing the financial aspect of it. Over all I felt very confidant in my choice of Streamside dental. I would recommend it to anyone.
