Powers Dental Group Falcon is an extension of the Powers Dental Group off North Carefree in Colorado Springs. Melanie Maldonado, regional manager, said they established an office in Falcon because they wanted to serve the eastern plains community.
“In October, (we) celebrated our one-year anniversary,” Maldonado said. “We’ve seen over 1,500 new patients since opening. We’ve had a great welcome to the community.”
The Falcon location providers are Dr. Adriana Chaves Kelton, doctor of medical dentistry; Dr. Andre Shook, doctor of dental surgery; and four dental hygienists.
Powers Dental Group Falcon offers a multitude of dental services utilizing the latest technology. Maldonado said their core services start with fillings, crowns, bridges and cleanings. “We are all about dental health and we take a conservative approach to dental care,” she said. “We don’t pressure you to do cosmetic or high-dollar procedures. If there are other options that can be offered, we are going to talk about those.”
Maldonado said they offer exceptional customer service. “This is one of the best large, harmonious groups of dental professionals that you would find anywhere,” she said. “We use the word ‘serve’ a lot. We are here to serve the community and one another, as well as the working family in the Falcon area.” They offer extended weekday hours and Saturday hours to help working families.
They have a strong relationship with military installations in the community. “We see a lot of military and their families,” Maldonado said. “Many of our doctors are former military dentists.”
Powers Dental Group Falcon is an in-network provider for most insurances. “We also offer zero interest, flexible payment options,” Maldonado said.
“Our dental professionals are perfectionists. We’re there to make sure you have healthy gums and teeth. If you are happy with your smile, we are happy with it, too,” she said.
Power Dental Group Falcon is located at 11950 Tourmaline Drive, Suite 100, in Falcon. Their hours are Monday through Thursday, 7:30 a.m. to 7 p.m., Friday, 7:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Saturday, 8 a.m. to 2 p.m.
