About Us
Our Story
At Erik H. Johnson, DMD, PC we believe dentistry is more than fixing teeth — it’s about building relationships and caring for people. After practicing dentistry elsewhere, Dr. Erik Johnson returned to his hometown of Butte, Montana to establish a family‑focused practice. Since opening his doors in the early 2010s, his mission has remained the same: to provide high‑quality, comfortable dental care to friends and neighbors across Southwest Montana.
Meet Dr. Erik H. Johnson
Dr. Erik Johnson was born and raised in Butte, Montana, which instilled in him a deep love for the community. After moving away for college and dental school, he married Keri and together they started a family. They ultimately decided to return home so their children could grow up in the same community that shaped them. Keri now works side by side with Erik as the practice’s main office manager, greeting patients and ensuring the office runs smoothly.
Patient‑first approach: Dr. Johnson understands that every smile is unique. He takes time to listen to your concerns, explain treatment options clearly and tailor care to your needs.
Commitment to comfort: Gentle techniques, effective anesthesia and sedation options help ensure that even the most anxious patients feel at ease.
Continued education: Dr. Johnson stays current with advances in dentistry. He offers same‑day CEREC crowns, digital imaging, Invisalign clear aligners, and tooth‑colored restorations, embracing technology that improves results and convenience.
Community advocate: When he isn’t in the office, you might find Dr. Johnson coaching youth sports, volunteering at local events or enjoying Montana’s outdoors with his family.
