Dr. Benjamin Gates

Routine care starts here. Dr. Benjamin Gates offers general dentistry in the Merritt Creek area, covering everything from cleanings and exams to fillings, crowns, and emergency treatments. Preventive visits help catch issues early, while restorative work keeps smiles functional for years.

Finding the office takes only a few turns off Highway 95. The address is 2165 N Merritt Creek Loop, Coeur d’Alene, ID 83814, set back in a quiet stretch where the neighborhood feels more residential than commercial. Patients from Post Falls and Hayden often mention the easy drive, especially when appointments fit into a lunch break or school schedule.

Dental anxiety doesn’t have to mean skipped check-ups. The practice also handles extractions and root canals, focusing on procedures that many people put off until discomfort forces their hand. Questions about treatment plans or scheduling can be answered by calling (208) 667-8282—no automated menus, just a direct line to the front desk.
