John L. Bacon, D.D.S.

Meet Dr. Bacon

Dr. John Bacon has been serving Flagstaff, Arizona as a local dentist for over 25 years. First opened in 1987, his dental office has been a long-term home for an experienced and friendly staff, a comfortable atmosphere, and satisfied dental patients throughout Flagstaff and Northern Arizona. To learn more about him, just keep reading below.

WHERE DID DR. BACON STUDY DENTISTRY?

Dr. Bacon completed his Bachelor’s in Chemistry from the University of Pacific in 1982 before graduating from the prestigious University of Minnesota’s School of Dentistry in 1986 with his doctorate. He also takes many relevant continuing education courses each year and keeps up with the latest dental techniques to ensure that his patients are always receiving up-to-date treatment.

WHAT DOES DR. BACON LIKE ABOUT BEING A DENTIST?

Dr. Bacon enjoys listening to what his patients want and communicating with them to make sure that they understand everything prior to receiving care. His primary concern is your dental health, and the entire office is oriented around prevention. If you’re not already in good health, he knows what to do to get you there and how you can maintain your health to minimize future needs. Many patients that came in with multiple problems now visit just to get their teeth cleaned and are seldom in need of more dental work.

OUTSIDE OF THE DENTAL OFFICE, WHAT DOES DR. BACON LIKE TO DO?

Continuing education is a big passion for Dr. Bacon outside of working hours – in particular, he is interested in integrated health care and the effects of oral health and its relation to overall health and specifically cardiovascular health. Other personal hobbies include playing golf, skiing (both cross country and downhill), hiking and mountain biking. He is learning to speak Spanish and often visits Mexico – in fact, during a recent vision, he caught a 10 foot long sailfish in Zihuatanejo, which is a small Mexican town that’s about the same size as Flagstaff!
