As a leading dentist in Central Phoenix, Dr. Nelson is dedicated to delivering the most innovative, up-to-date procedures available. Our main goal is to ensure the comfort and safety of our patients while providing top quality dental care. This is why Dr. Nelson has attained all the necessary training and certification required to perform the Laser Assisted New Attachment Procedure (LANAP).
LANAP is the least invasive Phoenix, AZ dental care procedure available for the treatment of gum disease. In fact, it is the only method of laser gum surgery that has been cleared by the FDA for use on patients. Rather than using a blade to cut away tissue, LANAP uses a laser to selectively remove only the diseased tissue, leaving the healthy tissue completely intact.

Wendy, Dental Hygienist, does a wonderful job. The entire office is so professional and I really appreciate all the lengths they have gone to during this COVID-19 to make sure their office is sanitary and safe. I have been a patient of Dr. Nelson's for over 18 years and I would highly recommend him. The work he has performed on me is absolutely the best. I have never had any problems.

Dr. Nelson was amazing! I had a broken front tooth (like really embarrassingly bad) and he was able to get me in same day to fix it. The woman who doesn't usually work the front desk but stood in was so sweet and helpful! My tooth looks like new! I went from being semi toothless to fully toothed all within in 2 hours! I give this place and the staff a 10/10! Would recommend.

Wendy is amazing. Very gentle and professional. Does not hurt at all. AMAZING!!!
Paula who is the front desk lady is just as Amazing. Always warm and friendly. Spot on getting any insurance papers to scheduling your next visit. Always willing to accommodate you. Always getting in touch if an earlier appointment comes available. Dr Nelson is very kind and thorough. He too is amazing. Very professional and knowledgeable in your dental care. Since moving to AZ in 2008 my husband and myself read reviews about Dr Nelson's practice and tried them out. It's 2018 and we are still having his

I highly recommend Dr. Bruce Nelson as a dentist. He is knowledgable and gentle. I had a infection in my gums that required surgery and 10 needles in my mouth to freeze the area! Dr. Nelson was extremely gentle and saved my gums from an infection I didn't know I had.
The rest of the staff are very friendly and helpful.

When I moved to central Phoenix not long ago, the search for a dentist was on. I stumbled upon a couple positive reviews for Dr. Nelson, scheduled an appointment, and that was that! I had found my new dentist! Dr. Nelson was friendly, gentle, and knowledgable. Really knows his stuff. That said, most of my time there has been spent with their hygienist Wendy. She is FANTASTIC. I've seen many different dentists/hygienists over the years as my career has forced me to move all around the country, and without a doubt, Wendy is by far my favorite. For example, I was told I needed a procedure done and

I love this whole office. It's warm and welcoming in a very genuine way. Dr. Nelson is low-keyed and knows his stuff. And Wendy is by far the best hygienist ever. I recently moved to central Phoenix and actually tried several other dental offices in the area which I will not name. I'm no longer looking.

I recently had some work done at Dr. Nelsons office and I am thrilled with the results. My 2 front teeth had each cracked up the center, nearly from top to bottom. Dr. Nelson recommended veneers and I was a bit apprehensive. So many people I knew have had them and ended up looking like rabbits or simply looked so different that I barely recognized them. After months of muling it over I decided to go ahead and have the front 4 done. Like I said, I am thrilled! They look exactly like my own teeth, sans cracks. My own family, who have no problem being brutally honest, have said they wouldn't have

Dr. Bruce came highly recommended. I live in Chandler and will gladly make the 45 minute drive to see him. I hadn't been to the dentist in so long and was extremely nervous. From the moment I walked in Paula, who runs the front office, made me feel so comfortable. Krystal was so good at explaining everything she's doing to prep me for Dr. Bruce. I was in pain for 2 weeks and after leaving Dr. Bruce, I felt a million times better. Wendy cleaned my teeth afterwards. The whole office is so nice and professional. If you're looking for a dentist go here. You'll be so glad you did

I have been a patient of Dr. Nelson for several years now and I can honestly say he is a excellent dentist and more importantly (Gentle). I had gone to a orthodontist (as a child) who was rough with me - as a result I was always relunctant to go to the dentist. Now, it's not a chore.
Wendy, my hygentist is very gentle as well and always friendly. Dr. Nelson and his staff are the best!
