Creating Smiles in Siouxland.
We are a family-owned office with a professional team who makes your dental care our top priority.
We love creating smiles in Siouxland, and it’s easy because our patients love us so much. We believe that intention combined with skill is the combination that keeps our patients loyal and generous with their praise. The goal of our team is to listen first, then deliver excellence with comfort. We truly love what we do and we hope that shines through from the moment you walk through the door, to the follow-up phone call after your visit. Our hope is that you walk away with a smile.
We also believe in being philanthropic. It’s an honor to serve the Sioux City and Elk Point communities. Be sure to connect with us on Facebook to see how our team is serving and supporting some of our favorite charities.

The experience at Dr. Burhoop's was one of the best visits I have had at a dental office. The dental assistants and dental hygienists are compassionate and very calming. Dr. Burhoop makes the experience an enjoyable one and guides you in what you need to complete on each visit. If you are in need of a dentist, call The Dentist at Lakeport!

Using Technology to Empower Optimal Health
At The Dentist, it is our goal to help each of our patients achieve optimal oral health through convenient, comprehensive family care. That is why we provide thorough diagnosis and treatment with the help of 3-D Cone Beam technology. 3-D Dental X-Rays are safe and they allow us to obtain images at the highest resolution possible.
3D Cone Beams X-Rays
Dr. Burhoop uses the 3D Cone Beam X-ray not only to diagnose various conditions, but to prepare the best possible treatment plan for each individual patient. Not everyone is the same, and the 3D X-ray shows Dr. Burhoop and our staff things like your bone density, thickness, and where your nerves are, allowing us to provide you the best care possible. We are committed to having current technology to give each patient the care they deserve. Providing exceptional patient care that you can trust is our highest priority.
