By providing Internet access in our waiting room, we also put information at your fingertips while you’re at our offices.

Technology

Digital X-rays

We offer the latest in digital radiography, otherwise known as X-rays. Not only are they friendlier for the environment, they also reduce radiation exposure by up to 90% compared to traditional x-rays

Cutting-edge Orthodontics

We use cutting-edge orthodontic techniques and materials including self-ligating braces, ceramic (clear) braces, clear aligners, and memory wires. We are committed to staying current with advances in orthodontics by attending meetings and having regular in-office training so that we can provide you with the highest quality orthodontic care possible.

Tradition

The same principles have guided Nelson Orthodontics since we opened our doors in 1967—provide quality care in a fun, efficient environment and be an active member of the communities we serve. From our commitment to continuing education to our involvement in the Ballard and Magnolia communities, we have stayed true to our unique way of serving patients for over 40 years.
