Meet the Dentist

Jenny Filter D.D.S. P.C.Dr. Jenny Filter was born and raised in Indiana. She attended Indiana University undergraduate school and attained her dental doctorate at Loyola University Chicago College of Dental Surgery during which time she gave birth to her twin sons, Samuel and Maximillion. After achieving a dental license to practice in Illinois, she went on to get her license to practice in Indiana by the Indiana State Board of Dental Examiners. She experienced a ten month residency with her father in Indiana and, after giving birth to her third child, daughter Gabrielle, moved to Boulder, Colorado.  She accumulated yet a third license to practice dentistry in the state of Colorado, bought a dental practice in Boulder where she resided for four years. She studied for two years in orthodontics, has been certified in Invisalign for over ten years, and attended a comprehensive training program in implant dentistry where she earned a certificate by The School of Dentistry Medical College of Georgia and the American Academy of Implant Dentistry. She is a member of the American Dental Association, Academy of General Dentistry, Colorado Dental Association, Intermountain Dental Society and the American Academy of Implant Dentistry. She makes it a point to constantly update her knowledge of new dental techniques, materials, technology and methods through continuing education.

Dr. Filter and her family relocated to Salida in 1999 and have found this to be the place they call home. "The love of outdoor living has made Salida the ideal place for me to live. I am enthusiastic about whitewater rafting, snowboarding, hiking and biking. I feel so fortunate to find such an enjoyable profession, the art and craftsmanship of dentistry... and to be able to practice it in a place as beautiful Salida!"

MaxMax
Max has been a dental assistant at this office two years. Originally, he was hired on to help with basic cleanup work, yard work, and other side work/errands as needed. He quickly started watching dental procedures and assisting with a few of them. That's when the doctor realized he was going to do a great job as an assistant. Also, Max realized that he really enjoys working with patients and helping to relieve their pain. He is currently in the process of learning to make crowns to allow patients to get their crowns on the same day as their preparation appointment. On his days off he likes to be outdoors hiking, camping, snowboarding, and a handful of other active things.
