Trent graduated from Case Western Reserve University School of Dental Medicine in 2010 and received the prestigious Deans award for both academic and clinical excellence. He attended all four years of dental school on the Air Force Health Professionals Scholarship. After graduation, Trent was one of the few selected to attend a one-year intensive Advanced Education in General Dentistry (AEGD) Residency at Nellis Air Force Base in Las Vegas, NV, where he graduated at the top of his class. This AEGD residency provided enhanced knowledge and experience in all dental specialties including IV sedation, Oral Surgery, Periodontal surgery, complex molar root canals, and implant placement and restoration. Following his residency, he was stationed at FE Warren AFB in Cheyenne, Wyoming. While stationed in Cheyenne, he completed a rigorous one-year Advanced Clinical Dentistry Preceptorship, earning the title of advanced Clinical Dentist. Additionally, Trent was recognized as the top-producing dentist, completed over 250 IV sedation oral surgery cases, and received both the 2012 Medical Group Company grade Officer of the Year award and the Air Force Commendation Medal for his outstanding service to our country. Trent first came to Telluride the summer of 2014 to visit Dr. Terry Brown and his practice. Originally Dr. Buttars had dreamed of returning to his home area of Jackson Hole, Wyoming to practice. But after his visit, he fell in love with the Telluride area and could not pass up the opportunity to raise his three boys, Raef (18), Ryan (16) and Caleb (12) here. They all love the outdoors, skiing, and hiking and can’t wait to take advantage of all the wonderful opportunities Telluride has to offer. He also recently started training as a Helicopter pilot so spends many weekends in Durango flying. In this practice, you will see Dr. Buttars implement his three core beliefs for dentistry: 1) Honesty in everything, 2) The highest quality or nothing, and 3) Patient communication.
