Donald R. Rice DDS

Dental work isn’t exactly a thrill. But when routine cleanings, fillings, or crowns come up, having a no-frills office that handles the basics can make the process less painful—literally. Donald R. Rice DDS covers the expected: exams, extractions, and preventive care, along with the occasional emergency when a tooth decides to rebel at 2 a.m. They don’t advertise whitening specials or Invisalign parties; it’s the kind of practice where you show up, get the work done, and leave without a sales pitch for add-ons. Dentistry isn’t glamorous, but neither is a root canal, and someone’s got to do it. The office sits at 7701 E 1st Pl B in Denver, tucked into a stretch of professional buildings where the parking lots fill up fast on weekdays. If you’re calling to schedule—or reschedule, because life happens—the number is (303) 351-8002. First-time patients might want to double-check the suite letter; B isn’t always the most obvious door. For anyone mapping it out, the directions are straightforward once you’re past the construction on 1st Place. Pro tip: if you’re coming from I-225, give yourself an extra five minutes—the traffic lights there have a mind of their own.
