Dr. Riley Blackhurst was born and raised in the Boise, Idaho area. He attended the University of Montana for his undergrad, and graduated with a degree in Human Biology in 2015. Go Griz! He then went to the University of Minnesota School of Dentistry for his D.D.S., and graduated in 2020 with high honors.
Dr. Riley likes to spend his free time outdoors hiking, mountain biking, skiing, paddleboarding, and hunting. He also enjoys family time with his wife, 1 year old son, and two golden retrievers at Placid lake. A fun fact about Dr. Riley is that he is the youngest in a family of ten and really enjoys spending time with all his nieces and nephews.
The thing Dr. Riley loves most about dentistry is that he gets to work with his hands and most importantly help people. A healthy smile is so important to your physical health, as well as your mental health and there is a lot of satisfaction in helping people achieve this balance.
