It is rewarding to have the ability to improve your smile and help you feel better. Truth be told, Dr. Nelson was scared of his dentist as a child and it has been our mission here to alleviate those same apprehensions for each patient.
Graduating in 2011 at the world-renown Loma Linda University School of Dentistry. This university has trained Dr. Nelson to be accomplished in all-things dental from comprehensive dental planning, aesthetics, crowns and fillings, root canals, extractions, dentures and implants.
​
He first started working in community health centers in Macomb, Illinois and Grants Pass. These environments provided crucial experience in treating a myriad of complications not regularly seen in private practice. Dr. Nelson continues to travel all over the world providing dental humanitarian services to third-world countries. Locally he has supported the local Children's Museum of Southern Oregon in creating a dental exhibit for children to experience dentistry in a fun environment and for years had been the official dentist of the Miss Oregon Volunteer Pageant.
Dr. Nelson looks forward to being your dentist for many decades in Central Point.​​
​
My goal is to make your dental visit comfortable and provide the dental care you have always expected. Your smile is our priority.

OUR COMMITMENT TO YOU:
DENTAL HYGIENIST
Ana
I’m an Expanded Practice Dental Hygienist with a passion for helping people feel comfortable and confident in their oral health. I earned my Bachelor’s Degree in Dental Hygiene from the Oregon Institute of Technology in 2024 and have since returned to southern Oregon to serve the community where I grew up.
I’m dedicated to providing compassionate, accessible care and believe in creating a positive, trusting environment for every patient. Outside of work, I enjoy spending time outdoors—fishing, hiking, and camping whenever I can.

DENTAL ASSISTANT

I am an Expanded Function Dental Assistant and I've been in the dental field over five years. I love being able to help patients feel comfortable and confident in their smiles. One of my favorite parts of my job is getting to know our patients, building relationships with them, and helping make their dental visits a positive experience.
​
I enjoy being part of a team that cares about our patients and takes pride in the work we do. Outside of the office I love spending time with my kids, staying active, and making memories with my family.

Laura
DENTAL HYGIENIST

I started in dentistry as an office manager in 2003 and shortly after received my dental assistant/radiology certification so I was cross trained to help in all aspects of the dental office. What I love most about my job is the relationship I have been able to build with our patients. Outside of work I like spending time on the water boating with my family or watching my children in their different sports.
