Dr. Gary is the only dentist I would trust to take my children to. You can see he really loves children. His staff is world class. They are professional and awesome with children. My children 8, 5, and 2 look forward to going there to have their teeth cleaned. When my oldest chipped her tooth on a Friday afternoon they got us right in. Dr.Gary and Adventure Dental are wonderful!!! I have and will continue to recommend them.

My son has been going to this dentist since he was 2 years old. We love the animal themed rooms and giant stuffed animals around. Dentist and the entire staff is super friendly so my son feels very comfortable visiting the dentist since young age. He also gets a kick of getting a token to pick a special price at the end of each visit. We couldn’t ask for a better dentist! He is 7 yrs old now and we just came back from his regular cleaning and check up visit, cavities free, yay!

Always a pleasure to bring my son to this wonderful place. So far, the staff has always been friendly and helpful. The dentist is outstanding and makes my child feel comfortable at all times. Thank you guys for your dedication and professionalism.
Fun For The Whole Family!
A lot of general dental practices out there say, “No kids allowed!” or they only start seeing kids after a certain age. At Nelson Ridge Family Dental, we’re happy to see your babes as soon as their first tooth emerges—usually around 12 months or 1 year. Happy first birthday! Our team is fun, friendly, gentle, and educational to create an environment of laughs and learning—they might even look forward to coming back! We’re happy to offer family appointment reservations so you can get the whole gang in and out in a single visit.
