About Nelson Avenue Dental
Our Office
Nelson Avenue Dental offers a broad range of general dental care services, along with specialty Prosthodontic treatments such as dental implants and bone grafting.
​
We have a great team of experienced dentists, a prosthodontist, licensed dental hygienists and dental assistants on staff, many who grew up here, and enjoy the amazing work/life balance of the Kootenays.
​​​
This office is locally and independently owned and​ is not affiliated with any corporate dental chains.
​
For decades, the Kootenays have been a safe haven from investment based dental practice ownership. Over the last few years, various locally owned dental practices have sold to large corporations.
​
For some people, this matters.
Our Philosophy
A goal of good health is a lifestyle choice that takes commitment and motivation. Nothing we do as dentists, specialists or our teams, will be successful if we cannot motivate our patients to improve their oral health.
Our first priority is the promotion of the health and well-being of our patients.
Our Location
​
We are located in beautiful Nelson, B.C. just steps from the shores of Kootenay Lake.
The dental clinic is nestled in a turn of the century home with ample free parking. It definitely has a country cottage feel!

Environmental Impact
​
Dental offices can have very large environmental footprints. From the chemicals and plastics we use every day, to the waste from sterilization wrapping and instrument packaging, we are major trash producers.
We have worked very hard to set up aggressive recycling and waste reduction strategies to minimize the amount of garbage that ends up in landfills, or in our oceans.
It has taken a lot of research and support from my suppliers to reduce my footprint. We only have this one planet!
