The training, skill & experience trusted by thousands. A well-trained and experienced dentist, Dr. Michael Watson is known for his skill, attention to detail and commitment to excellent results. After graduating dental school with honors, Dr. Watson completed a special internship in which he learned techniques and honed skills not typically part of a dentists training. Today, Dr. Watson has nearly a decade of experience and has earned the trust of thousands with healthy, happy smiles.
I decided to become a dentist because I wanted to help people. After nearly a decade of practicing dentistry, this is still what motivates me. Striving to offer the best care possible and being able to improve the lives of others is very rewarding. I never forget the importance of oral health to your overall health. This is a major part of my focus as a dentist because its also a huge part of my personal life. As a person with diabetes, I am very deeply aware of the role of good healthcare. Ive dedicated myself to taking the extra steps and precautions people like me need. Yet, its just part of my belief that everyone deserves a dentist who takes the time and makes the personal commitments that lead to healthy, attractive smiles.
Dr. Watson is always interested in learning and expanding his education. He has taken recent Continuing Education classes in veneers, cosmetic dentistry, implantology, temporomandibular dysfunction, oral pathology, and oral-systemic health issues.
Dr Watson and his staff are very professional. He's been our family dentist for 14 years. The staff is friendly, helpful, and makes you feel at home. Dr Watson has taken care of any issues we've ever had. Besides being very knowledgeable, he's a real pro, and the coolest guy you'll ever know. Give him a shot!. You'll be happy that you did.
Besides my typical cleanings from Dr. Watson & staff, I recently had a couple visits for some other dental concerns. I continue to be impressed and comforted by their care. Dr. Watson gives you all the information and education needed. I feel he does a wonderful job of 'coming alongside' his patients; I truly appreciate his approach and really respect that he listens to patients. Krista has been the dental assistant the last few visits and she is so easy to chat with and provides such quality care as well.
I am always happy with the way Dr. Watson and his staff take care of me. They are friendly and do a great job with my teeth. I have been going to Dr. Watson for nearly 20 years and have enjoyed consist high quality dental care For me and my children with every visit.
Dr. Watson is a great Dentist, very professional in all he does. Staff could not be any better than they always are. I drive 458 miles from southern Colorado to be treated by Dr Watson and have recommended him to anyone who asks.
I do not enjoy going to the dentist but Dr. Watson and his hygienists make the process more comfortable. Very friendly and gentle. I have traveled from out of state and now from Vernal to keep him as my dentist. I highly recommend.

Michael Watson is awesome! I tried his office on a whim because my last dentist stopped accepting my insurance and I've been very happy since. He is very personable, kind, and explains all things dentistry very well.

Dr. Watson and his team make up an amazing dentist office. It is an intimate practice where they really get to know you and your family. Dr. Watson took care of my husbands teeth during his cancer treatment and was very accommodating to the extra needs that created. Thank you Dr. Watson and team!

Great experience. Dr. Watson seemed very well educated in the field and made me feel confident in his abilities and knowledge. Krista was friendly and confident and made me feel comfortable. They were super timely too. Started slightly early and I didn't have to fill out a bunch of forms because I did it on my phone before I came in. Getting reminders via email and text was great because I always lose those reminder cards. Thanks!

Dr Watson and his crew are one of the nicest, fun, and caring people I have ever been cared by. Easy to make appts, easy to find appts, have had 5 different insurances over the years and he had taken all of them. Has companies who Worked with me when I had to pay for a bridge. On top of being extremely nice Dr Watson is the the best Dentist I have ever had. He knows everything there is about your mouth, teeth, gums, all of that stuff and will help you keep it healthy. He is gentle and patient when doing procedures and listens to you about your needs. His support staff is just like him. Just FYI, if you don't floss he will let know, so you might as well do it, or you will hear it from him :) I will never go to another Dentist. Highly recommend Dr Watson and crew.

Super friendly staff (shout-out to Krista), Dr Watson is great to talk to as well. I don't review things often, so the fact I was compelled to review them is a testament to how good they are.

Dr. Watson and staff treat me like family. What more could I ask for? I enjoy my visits every time and actually look forward to my appointments. Truthfully, who likes their dentist this much? He is a one in a million, high caliber profesional. I will never have to look for another until he retires. Fingers crossed he lives to be 100!!!

Dr, Watson is first-rate. He's skilled at his job, current in all advances in the field and runs an excellent facility. He is caring and all of his staff clearly know what they're doing. In my 66 years, Dr. Watson is probably the best dentist I have ever had!

I'm so happy I've found such a nice dentist! All of the employees treat me so well! I was having intense pain from a wisdom tooth. I called and they scheduled an appointment for the next day and the removal was so quick and completely painless! Krista was really sweet to me when I was anxious about it, and Dr Watson's professional and calm manner helped me relax so that it was a really easy process! Everyone is so great, I'm always happy to come back for me checkups!

My wife and I have been patients of Dr. Watson for 10 years. We love his manner and personality. His office stands by their work as well as that of the dental related contractors they deal with. We have only had positive experiences with his practice.

My wife and I first met Dr Watson about 18 years ago when we lived in SLC. We moved to a remote location in Utah and continued to drive 3 hrs one way to have him care for our teeth for about 1 more year. (My wife hates the dentist, but loves Dr Watson) REVIEWUPDATE as of 8/16/22 Had the best experience that I've ever had with a filling. Christa was also spot on as an assistant. Great new technique Dr Watson. You can't get rid of us yet.

Super awesome and funny and makes the whole cavity filling experience bearable!
