Dedicated Denver, CO Dentist

Get to Know
Dr. Luke Vernon

From Logansport, IN, Dr. Vernon is incredibly grateful for the opportunity to help patients achieve their healthiest and brightest smiles. The best part about his work is being able to alleviate discomfort and anxiety in those who require dental care the most. Being part of our team is immensely rewarding for him and he looks forward to every day that he can help someone enjoy a more comfortable and confident grin.

Why Did You Decide to Become a Dentist?

When he was a child, Dr. Vernon had issues with an impacted canine that required uncovering and orthodontic manipulation to help move it into proper placement. To achieve this, he had to undergo two oral surgeries and needed treatment that took 5 years, 5 months, and 25 days to completely fix his smile.

Throughout this process, Dr. Vernon spent time exploring career paths, specifically the different medical positions he could pursue. He also shadowed his orthodontist to get a better understanding of dentistry and found that he truly enjoyed the practice, even getting hired as an assistant to help run the office. This was when he decided to pursue a career in dentistry and later worked on becoming a dentist himself.

Where Did You Study Dentistry?

Dr. Vernon first gained some experience and exposure to dentistry while working as one of his orthodontist’s office assistants. He later moved on to study at Indiana University for his bachelor's degree before graduating from their School of Dentistry with his dental doctorate. He also pursues countless hours of continuing education to refine his skills and remain up-to-date with the latest advances. He’s also a member of the American Dental Association and the Colorado Dental Association.

Outside of the Dental Office, What Do You Like to Do?

Away from the office, Dr. Vernon loves spending time with his family whenever possible. His parents are teachers at his hometown high school, and he has two younger sisters—one is a physician’s assistant while the other is exploring a career in real estate. He also enjoys hanging out with friends and loved ones and finding new and fun things to do together.
