There are few things more attractive or engaging than a beautiful smile.
Paul A. Nelson, DDS, and his team will help you as they did me to obtain, "That Smile."
Dr. Nelson and his associates are competent, capable, and dedicated to your care, They are prepared to renew your confidence.
The office is equipped with the most modern technology to yield the best results from your treatment.
I just completed my six months of treatment at the age of 90. I would recommend Dr. Nelson without reservation to persons of any age.
The new revolutionary techniques employed by Dr. Nelson and his colleagues are efficient, effective, and provided at a reasonable cost. The results are priceless.
From the moment you walk in the door, the caregiving team treats you not just like another patient but as a person.
I recommend Nelson Orthodontics to you without reservation.

I take my two kids to the Ballard office, and we have had really great experiences. We consulted with one other ortho in the area and by far preferred the atmosphere and friendliness of Dr. Nelson's office. I like it so much I've decided to get some of my 1980s orthodontia spruced up a bit. Dr. Nelson himself is professional yet friendly, and all of the hygienists have been nice, too. When my son got his Phase 1 braces off, they brought him a balloon, which I thought was a cute touch.
Both of my kids have severe food allergies/celiac, and when I inquired to make sure none of the orthodontic materials contained the dangerous ingredients, they were more than accommodating in looking up the information.
The woman who handles financing (Kristy) has a great, calm but outgoing personality and has helped us with the monetary hurdles. She explains everything really well.
Just writing this review because we've had good experiences there and I think they deserve some credit.
Dr. Nelson and the whole team are wonderful with patients of all ages. After extensive orthodontics here, my teeth look better than I had expected and ever thought they would.
Over the years of this process, Dr. Nelson, and his assistants were always courteous, ever so helpful with everything from explaining procedures upfront to recommending the best manner of home dental care and what to expect.
Appointments were ALWAYS on time as scheduled and the receptionists are super courteous and helpful. Once Dr. Nelson even called me at home on his day off when I called in about a wire which came loose!
As a former school teacher, it was a pleasure to observe how fantastic they are with all the young children, teens and their parents who come here for orthodontics.
Nelson Ortho is the best. Having interviewed for my kids, several orthodontic options, this practice is second to none.
Part of the reason is Paul Nelson's extraordinary art, touch, and honesty; the other part is that his many assistants are completely grounded and sane, helpful and very well trained.
Years after my kids had their teeth straightened (some used their retainers, others didn't so I would imagine they WILL be back!) I decided to address some lower-teeth over-crowing that grew worse with age.
Now at 60, I celebrated that birthday by looking sixteen! Got wired on my lower front teeth, proving that I've not given up on myself! I would encourage older people to consider this. Dr. Nelson does nothing that is unnecessary, and he is patient with clients on his approach with problem-solving. And since I am someone who wants to understand the full picture and appreciates the art, not just the science of how this can work, he was infinitely patient with this patient!
I hid these teeth till I was 24. After two years of suffering, I now get genuine compliments on my teeth once a week.
The office is brand new. The fish tank is a TV. Paul's cool and will probably be around when its time for me to drag my kid in there with the crowded teeth she got from her dad or the huge gap she got from her mom.
