Growing up in New Jersey, Dr. Faktor developed a love for skiing. This passion brought him to Colorado, where he pursued his undergraduate degree at CU Boulder. After attending Dental School at Temple University, he moved to Crested Butte, where he worked as a dentist and eventually acquired Elk Avenue Dental Group.
Dr. Faktor left Crested Butte and spent two years in Singapore before purchasing Breckenridge Dental Group on November 1, 2019. When hes not in the office, you can find Dr. Faktor skinning up Peak 8 at sunrise, skiing and exploring the beautiful town of Breckenridge.
Here at Breckenridge Dental Group, we understand that dental emergencies can be stressful and unexpected, so our practice is dedicated to assisting our patients in dental emergencies, such as a situation caused by a knocked-out tooth or impacted molar.
If you find yourself in a dental emergency, the best thing you can do is remain calm and try to stop any bleeding that may be occurring. Call our office immediately, and a member of the team will fit you into our schedule and have you seen by a dentist as soon as possible. Dental emergencies can be jarring and painful, but the sooner they are taken care of, the better.

The dental group is wonderful. Jan was so helpful to get my husband in on the day I called. He had an infection and had to have an extraction. Everything went well and all the staff were so helpful. Dr. Faktor is exceptional. He cares about his patients and even called the next evening to see how my husband was doing. Great dental practice

Great experience, wonderful staff, and Dr. Michael Faktor was absolutely wonderful. Came in feeling upset due to the inconvenience of this problem happening during my vacation, but left feeling relieved and happy to have had a wonderful experience. Very professional and positive experience. I wish we had this kind of service in Miami.

I was way overdue for a teeth cleaning. Everything about my visit was pleasant. I spent most of my time with Ashley and she was the most wonderful.

The staff are all very nice, and great at explaining what they are doing. I would have given a 5 star if you could discuss medical history in a more private environment.

Being on vacation is fun. Being in Breckenridge is fun. What isn't fun is needing to get a crown after you randomly crack a molar on vacation. That being said, Breckenridge dental group is an excellent practice and the staff and doctor are phenomenal. 10/10 would recommend to anyone in need of dental work. Thanks again!

My first visit at the Breckenridge Dental Group office was not a good experience. After taking photos of my face and rendering a 3D model of my mouth I started to think they were doing to much for the work I had scheduled. The reason for me visiting his dental office was to have a chipped tooth fixed. After the dentist filled a small chip in my front lower tooth he grinded my tooth down so that it looks crooked and he didn't even show me how the filling came out after it was filled. I walked out of his office thinking there was no way he could screw up a simple filling but he did. I recall him saying that "bone comes at a premium" Next thing you know I could feel him grinding into the bone of my tooth which was shaved down to a crooked angle. I took the time out of my day to have a chipped tooth fixed and left there with a three-thousand dollar estimate to fix a different tooth that was repair less than two year ago. The work I had done was a waste of my time and money. His office staff was nice but I was mad after seeing the work he did to my tooth. I would never trust this guy to do any more work on my teeth. I was looking for a competent dentist, rather than a salesperson.

Would Highly recommend Dr. Faktor's practice! After calling several places in the Summit area I found Dr. Michael Faktor who was able to get me in that day as well as within 2 hours of calling. I needed emergency dental attention due to extreme nerve pain, and helped me deal with the pain until he could get me in. He was very kind and even moved up my appointment understanding how much pain I was in. I am not very good with dental work but made me feel very comfortable and helped walk me through the best plan for the infected tooth. The following day he checked in with me to make sure there was no more nerve pain and advised the next steps for the tooth. I would recommend his practice not only for the work he did but their dedication. I am from Denver CO and he made a point to treat me like one of his patients which is why I will continue to go to him even though it may be a bit out of my way. Doctors like Michael Faktor are def hard to come by!

We travelled to Breckenridge from Texas for vacation. Unfortunately, in my 2nd day, I started suffering from massive toothache. My daughter found Dr Faktor's practice on Google. Charla was incredibly helpful and was able to give me an appointment for the next morning. Dr Faktor was very caring and knowledgable. He did a great job explaining what was wrong and gave ME the opportunity to decide whether I wanted to take anti-biotics and tide over until I returned home to TX or to seek further treatment while visiting Breckenridge. While I initially chose the former, I eventually decided to get my problematic teeth extracted while still in CO. I tremendously appreciated Dr Faktor himself calling me a few days after the extraction to check-up on how I was doing. I completely recommend Dr Faktor for any dental emergency and dental care.
