>> About Dental Clinic Registration
The Douglas County Dental Clinic provides comprehensive dental care to your entire family. Staffed with 3 dentists, 3 hygienists, and 2 dental assistants, our goal is for each patient to achieve and maintain good oral health.
The completion of our building expansion in 2007 has given us the opportunity to offer more services to meet the needs of the community. The development of our health clinic and the addition of our dental clinic allows us to now provide better preventive health and dental care to the residents of Douglas County and the surrounding area. These advancements have been made in an effort to continue improving the community’s overall health and well-being by working with infants, children, adults and elderly.
