About Aurora Family Dentistry

Decades of family visits, same-day emergency fixes, and calm handling of dental anxiety mark this Anchorage practice.

Reviews often mention Dr. Brian Choi and Dr. Ryan Ersland for calm, thorough explanations using digital imaging and X-rays, and several patients note the office has cared for their families across generations.

I’ve been very happy with Aurora Family Dental. Dr Ryan is the Best!! And Lori has been my hygienist for years. I love going to see her. It’s like catching up with an old friend. She’s always looking out for my dental health and I love that. I didn’t used to like going to the dentist, but these guys have changed that.

Highly recommend - very professional dentist and staff. I was impressed with the modern equipment being used. The initial consultation included digital imaging of my teeth profile and creating a 3D image to see every aspect of my teeth and gums from different angles and to be able explain the areas of concern and recommendations that would maintain and prevent future problems.
