Dr. Cooper Mitchell

Cooper Mitchell, DDS, FAGD, MAGD

Dr. Cooper Mitchell attended the University of Idaho, where he graduated at the top of his class and earned his Bachelor of Science degree in biological systems engineering. He then received his Doctor of Dental Surgery degree at the University of Minnesota and completed a year of advanced training at the AEGD residency program at Idaho State University. In 2017, Dr. Mitchell demonstrated his commitment to continuing education and clinical improvement by becoming first a Fellow (FAGD) and then a Master in the Academy of General Dentistry (MAGD), an achievement that only about 2 percent of dentists achieve.

Because of his advanced training, Dr. Mitchell can offer you additional services beyond that of a typical general dentist. You can relax in our new facility and receive top quality care from preventive hygiene visits to full-mouth rehabilitation. Get the entire family’s dental care in one location!

Take advantage of sedation dentistry — a safe and relaxing approach to dental work. It’s convenient because you can take care of several procedures at one time and not only surgery but fillings, crowns and root canals as well.

Dentistry has been in the Mitchell family since 1926. Dr. Mitchell is a third-generation dentist. He grew up in Helena and is a graduate of Capital High School. His father was the dental chief at the V.A. Hospital at Fort Harrison for 36 years, and his grandfather practiced dentistry in Kansas for 48 years.
