About Brady Dental Care
Siblings tend to grow up together in this practice's chairs, with young kids easing into early phase-one care and some families driving over an hour to stay.
Brady Dental Care is a general dental practice that also offers traditional braces, clear aligners, clear braces, TMJ treatment, and retainers alongside routine dental work. Reviews describe families bringing multiple children through treatment together and getting young kids comfortable with early, phase-one visits. Dr. Nic Wilhelmi is noted for explaining options and letting patients decide on their own care. A number of longtime patients say they keep driving in from well outside the area, sometimes over an hour, even after moving away.

Brady Dental is amazing. I was catching up on some dental work last year and visited once every two months.. and less often now, but the front desk even recognizes me! ..they care. ..and their dental care is top notch. Truly the best that I have ever experienced. Dr Nic is kind, skilled, and efficient. Best dental office I have ever worked with. I'm grateful to have found them.
