Dr. Nathan Thompson came to Prescott Dentistry in the summer of 2012 after having served honorably for 5 years in the US Army as both an officer (captain) and dentist. During his time in the service, he was stationed at Fort Riley, Kansas and also served overseas in both Iraq (Baghdad Camp Liberty of the Victory Base Complex) and in Germany (Ansbach, Bavaria).
While in Germany Dr. Thompson received extensive orthodontic training during a one-year internship and has completed hundreds of orthodontic cases (both traditional bracket/wire and Invisalign). As an Invisalign Preferred Provider Dr. Thompson has provided Invisalign treatment to many in our community including several of our team here at Prescott Dentistry!
Prior to his military service, Dr. Thompson received his dental training at USC where he trained 1-on-1 with the best BIOMIMETIC dental instructors in the country. Dr. Thompsons training focus was in advanced bonded composites, porcelains and minimally-invasive restorative procedures. He is also a proud NAU (Northern Arizona University) Lumberjack, where he received his Bachelors of Science in Chemistry focusing on Organic Chemistry and teaching in the O-Chem lab as a Teaching Assistant for three years. On his down time, Dr. Thompson volunteers with youth of his church and the Boy Scouts of America. He spends as much quality time as possible with his beautiful wife and five children.
Dr. Lance German earned his Doctorate of Dental Medicine from Temple University in 2013. After spending years practicing his craft in the much needed community health sector he began to see some of the limitations of traditional dentistry as well as the great need for a preventative and holistic approach to oral and whole body care. In order to grow in his knowledge and training in biological dentistry, Dr. German joined the team at Prescott Dentistry in 2017 with a re-directed focus towards minimally invasive dental techniques.
While at Temple University Dr. German was a member of the Oral Surgery Honors Society and the Stomatognathic Honor Society. Dr. German also had the opportunity to volunteer in multiple dental health clinics. The experience of giving back to the community was a richly rewarding experience. After completing his training, Dr. German joined the Academy of General Dentistry and practiced dentistry in multiple private practices. After a year he found a home at the Sea Mar Community Health Clinic in Tumwater, Washington where he provided patient care for 3 years. As his time at Sea Mar was coming to an end, Dr. German and his family decided they needed more sunshine in their lives and felt guided to the Prescott area.
Dr. German and his wife have four children, ages 8 to 1. They love the wonderful variety and great adventures to be had in the Prescott area. Several years ago, they adopted a whole-foods, plant based diet and love to help others improve their health through simple diet and lifestyle changes. In his time away from the office, Dr. German is a full-time husband and father and enjoys being with his family, having outdoor adventures whenever possible and is committed to and serves faithfully in their church.

Never have I had the issues anywhere else that I have had there. Dr. German couldn't isolate pain I have had in my mouth for months. He has not taken my pain seriously because he can't find it. Never had a dentist that couldn't find the source. He put a cap on the other side. 3 months later nothing but pain and sensitivity from the beginning of the procedure. I went in to the office for him to look at it and after an hour of waiting to see if the bite was off, the assistant kept relaying messages to me from Dr. German, and he told her he didn't think my bite was off and that the pain could take 6 months to resolve! I was in the dental chair and he never even came over to see me and check for himself. I have had a cap before...within a couple days, no problem. Another time my bite was off due to a cavity he filled. I kept having a lot of pain in it and when I finally got in for something else, (because you have to wait a month each time you see him) I told him about it and he said that the cavity he filled, the bite was off and now I have a cracked tooth. Tells me this nonchalantly like it was no big deal! DONE! Recently went to a new dentist. In fact, my bite was severely off with the cap that was placed over my tooth but the pain has still not subsided. And the new dentist found where the pain stemming on the other side, which was another tooth he 'worked' on. I did not name names to the other dentist but they told me my previous dentist was lazy! You've been forewarned.

I have been going to Prescott Dentistry for many years and I can't say enough good things about them! When you walk in the office, you are greeted by attentive, wonderful people right away. The first time I went, I saw Dr. Thompson who is so kind and wonderful. I didn't think there could be anyone as nice and then I met Dr. German and he was just as wonderful, kind and knowledgeable. He always spends all the time needed for questions and explanations about what his is doing and it is so comforting! He makes you feel like you are his only patient! When I got a serious health diagnosis a couple of years ago and since I am very holistic myself, I wanted a holistic dentist which is why I chose Prescott Dentistry. Dr. German always recommends the natural way to treat things when possible, which I really appreciate as I have been dealing with Periodontal disease which Dr. German shared with me could contribute to my health issue. Because of this, I am having 4 deep cleanings which I was nervous about. But, no worries, the Dental Hygentist, Carrie is so amazing and gentle and kind. I just love her too! And it is working as my mouth is feeling so much better! I thought I had tooth problems that were painful but come to find out, it was my gums causing the pain and problems and it is getting so much better now. If you want to feel special, go to Prescott Dentistry! The atmosphere is so calm and EVERYONE is soooo amazing!. You will love them too!

Dr. Thompson and staff are excellent. I needed to replace six upper front cracked and chipped teeth. Nathan Thompson has access to a "dental artist" who made perfect replacements and I am no longer reticent to smile. Since I am 71 years old, Dr. Thompson even offered to guarantee my new teeth for life!

Very friendly staff and efficient dental care. It is nice to be worked on by people who have a keen sense of humor. This is true of the dental assistants, Dr Nathan Thompson, and even the office staff who are happy to collect my money as I leave. I always leave with the memory of a nice time unlike other dentists I've know. I'm 73 and have spent a lot of time in dentist's chairs but Prescott Dentistry is the most pleasant experience I've ever had.

I really researched for a good dentist to satisfy my dental needs when I first arrived in Prescott. Dr. German has both dental expertise and also cares for the general health of the patient. He is gentle and caring and offers advise with no pressure. His staff are all efficient and pleasant. Precautions are taken for Covid at this time and all patients are made to feel comfortable. I highly recommend Prescott Dentistry

Prescott Dentistry does their best to help patients feel comfortable. All employees are kind and respectful. They make sure to explain all the options for fixing my teeth, then allowed me to make the decision on what I wanted done.

Dr Thomson is really thoughtful in explaining everything to in plain English. And doesn't do any unnecessary work. Amanda my hygienist is also wonderful. I highly recommend Prescott Dentistry to anyone.
