Michael A Burnham, DDS

My son had his wisdom teeth pulled this month. The ONE time I met Dr. Burnham I was impressed. One of his assistants (Kris) was wonderful. I did have some issues thought with insurance. In the beginning I asked if they were with Delta Dental and they responded yes. Apparently I did not ask the right question because although they are Premier with Delta Dental, they are not considered to be a PPO. Because of this my insurance will only reimburse me 50% instead of 80% which is a big difference! The day of surgery I was surprised I never saw the surgeon before or after the case. Instead the assistant during the case spoke to me. When someone is paying over $ 2000 you somewhat expect to see the surgeon. During my sons follow up appointment once again I did not see Dr. Burnham. I understand he is very busy but still… Bottom line — he did a wonderful job pulling my sons wisdom teeth but I guess I just expected a little more for the amount of money I was paying. Next time I know to be specific in asking if a provider is a PPO or Premier.

Dr. Burnham is an outstanding professional with a great empathetic, understanding and easy manner. His staff is similarly extremely efficient and wonderfully calm + serene. Overall, a very good + positive experience/​Dr. Burnham is at the top of his profession and his staff is motivated to perform to the highest standard while making the patient most comfortable.
I recommend him and his staff very highly.

I absolutely love the entire staff at Dr. Burnhams!!! I have had two surgeries there and they are so nice, positive, encouraging and friendly. Both procedures I have had over the last year have been fantastic. It truly is rare to find a practice where everything is working on all cylinders. From the welcoming staff, comforting nurses and Burnham’s skill makes every visit my family and I have had flawless. I almost wish I had more teeth so I can go visit. Also get their Chapstick… amazing!!!

Dr. Burnham and ALL of his office staff are WONDERFUL!!! They made me feel comfortable and are very pleasant and professional! Still have upcoming appointments with them and have no more anxiety! Mahalo to all!

Dr. Burnham, his staff and my entire experience were all top notch. From my consultation visit to the follow up call from the doctor himself, to the post op check up, I have never been treated so well. The genuine concern for my well being expressed by everyone in this center is by far one of the best experiences I have ever had (getting things removed from my body, I mind you)!!!
I recommend this oral surgery center to anyone that needs dental work done. Thank you to you Dr. Burnham and all of your wonderful colleagues.

After a horrible experience with an Oral Surgeon in Arvada, I was given Dr. Burnham’s name by a co-​worker. From the moment I stepped into his office in June 2011, I was treated like family. Dr. Burnham is a gentle, spiritual and caring man. His staff are well-​trained and never, ever rush you through an appointment. I had 3 implants on my lower-​right jaw and I am so very pleased with them. Thank you, Dr. B., Mindy, Bobbie, Kayla, Chris and everyone else. You’ve been so helpful and caring!

Dr Burnham’s practice is fantastic!
I was referred to Dr Burnham by my primary dentist to have my 4 wisdom teeth removed.
I visited Dr Burnham’s practice in July to assess my specific situation. I was very apprehensive, even during the consultation. Dr Burnham assured me that he would take very good care of me.
I scheduled my oral surgery for late August — Again, I was apprehensive, and wanted and needed to give myself as much time as possible.
On the last Friday of August, I checked into Dr Burhnham’s office at 9:05 a.m. for a 9:20 a.m. appointment. I sat in the waiting room, for what seemed to be an eternity; however, it was approximately 9:20 a.m. when the nurse called me back.
Becky, the surgical assistant, did her best to reassure me that everything was going to be okay. I explained to Becky that I have the tendency to pass out when stuck with a needle. Becky was very comforting, and was very tactful in ensuring that she comforted me every step of the way.
Becky gathered my vitals and started me on nitrous oxide and oxygen. Dr Burnham was shortly behind to administer the IV sedation. I asked Dr Burnham how long the IV sedation would take to become effective, and he assured me that I would do just fine.
I listened to half of a song on the Sirius portable player and Bose Quiet Comfort headphones provided by the office.
And that was the end of it!
I woke up [what seemed like] 20 minutes later in complete comfort. The actual procedure took just over 1 hour. I remember nothing about the procedure.
The nurses let me leave through the back of the office so that my walk to the car was less than that of walking through the office.
Dr Burnham called a bit ago to check on my status, and I had to tell him the truth. I feel great!
Sure, I have a little tenderness in the jaw, but considering what I have gone through today — I am extremely excited with the services I received from Dr Burnham and his staff.
I would, with absolute confidence, refer anyone needing a dental procedure to Dr Burnham’s office. Dr Burnham will surely have my business any time I need an oral procedure.
