About

Steven Puffer, DMD

The Center for Cosmetic & Biocompatible Dentistry is based on one simple principle-everyone deserves to smile, and feel good about it. From general dentistry to our focus on the latest in health centered, cosmetic, and restorative techniques, our goal is simple — to make you smile. That's why we've created a soothing spa-like atmosphere. That's why we insist on using state of the art technology — to provide the best, most comfortable experience for every patient. And, that's also why we give each patient the personal attention they deserve. Not all smiles are the same, and they shouldn't be treated the same.

The Center for Cosmetic & Biocompatible Dentistry was founded on the notion that smiling is the most powerful human expression. Yet, so often those smiles are buried by embarrassment, self-consciousness, or fear. One single healthy smile can transform an aura of a room or a community. A smile can ease tension, build self-esteem, express feelings for those around you, and improve your health. Let us help you find your smile!

Dr. Steven Puffer, D.M.D. graduated from BYU-Idaho and then earned his dental degree from Oregon Health & Science University. He has always had a love and appreciation for dentistry, as his father was a dentist. Before dental school, Dr. Puffer worked as a dental assistant and enjoys the relationships established in all areas of dentistry. Before coming to Idaho he was a partner in a practice near Portland, Oregon. Dr. Puffer has a great attention to detail, artistic ability, passion for dentistry, and concern for the whole well-being of his patients.

Dr. Puffer also enjoys being a member of the Crown Council, an international roundtable of Dentists who have joined to share ideas, talents, and improve the health, wellness, and quality of dental care worldwide-to promote oral health, fight oral cancer, and serve their communities through charitable work.

I came to Dr. Puffer to have my amalgams removed. My son is a Chiropractor and has been after me to have my amalgams removed to eliminate the mercury from my body. After Dr. Puffer examined my X-rays, he found out I had a root canal too. To give you a brief history, I lost my voice 6 years ago and I tried everything including speech therapy, botox injections and hypnosis trying to get it back. Dr. Puffer explained that my root canal tooth was in the same meridian as my vocal cords and larynx and could be interfering. Also, the sister tooth on the other side of my mouth, was not in good shape. I decided to have both removed, plus my amalgams all in one sitting with sedation. Dr. Puffer and his team are totally professional and extremely helpful. They use every precaution to make sure you do not swallow any of the particles they remove.

I would like to share how much I have appreciated all Dr. Puffer has done for me. Since having my amalgams and my root canals removed, I am really feeling much better. Even though my voice isn’t back, it is stronger so I am hoping in time it will get better. I had no idea your teeth could affect your health as much as it does. I am glad to know that Dr. Puffer applies natural and healthy methods to dentistry, such as Vitamin C flush and the use of the dental dams. Thank you for your professionalism and help.

I would recommend them to anyone who is considering having their amalgams removed or any dental work done.
