Blending clinical expertise with entrepreneurial spirit, Dr. Thoreson developed the Inflatrix, a breakthrough device that makes fillings faster, gentler, and far less intimidating.

He’s also passionate about mentoring the next generation through his comprehensive dental assistant training program and fostering a more human, connected approach to dentistry.
