In 1990, Warm Springs Dental was established when Dr. Robert Nisson left his position as an associate Dentist in Boulder City, NV. Dr. Nisson leased a small space on the corner of Warm Springs and Green Valley Pkwy, furnished it, hung his name on the front door, and named his new company Warm Springs Dental after the street address. Offering caring and dedicated dentistry, the new practice began to grow, and grow it did! In only a few years’ time, Dr. Nisson needed help with his newfound patient demand.
In 1994 Dr. Nisson convinced his Dental School roommate, Dr. Corry Timpson, to leave a 5-year associate Dentist position in Santa Monica, CA and join forces in Henderson at Warm Springs Dental. In 1994 Dr. Timpson was one of a small number to pass the Nevada State Dental Board Exam, becoming licensed in Nevada to practice his skills with Dr. Nisson. Even with two full-time Dentists working extended hours in that little office, the increase in patients again demanded more than Dr. Nisson and Dr. Timpson could handle.
It was around that time that a tragic but seemingly fortunate event brought Drs. Nisson, Timpson and Newton together. Throughout Dental School, a 30-year preclinical instructor at the USC School of Dentistry by the name of Robert Wallin, D.D.S. would ask the top-performing dental students to make his gold restorations for his private practice in Santa Monica. All three Doctors (Nisson, Timpson, and Newton) were top-performing preclinical students (Newton USCDS class of 1988 and Dr’s. Nisson and Timpson USCDS class of 1989) and were asked to make Dr. Wallin’s crowns. In 1985, the three Doctors were already working together at a private gold lab. In 1996 Dr. Wallin lost a battle with cancer and since Dr. Newton and Timpson were both associates for Dr. Wallin, they both attended his funeral, and there they reunited.
It was after that service where Dr. Timpson proposed that Dr. Newton should consider selling his private practice in Arcadia, CA and join Warm Springs Dental. In the same year, Dr. Newton passed the Nevada State Dental Exam to join with Dr’s. Nisson and Timpson in that small office on Warm Springs and Green Valley Parkway. In just a few months’ time, it was obvious that the team of three Dentists and staff needed a bigger office. The current office at Warm Springs and Stephanie across from Green Valley High School was then built and became their Green Valley location, which was called Warm Springs Dental.
A few years later, the three Henderson Dentists expanded their practice by opening Anthem Village Dental in order to provide additional opportunities to serve more of the Henderson community. That was over 10 years ago.
During that time, the doctors were looking for a bigger office in the Anthem area to match the size of their office on Warm Springs Rd. Upon building the new office, in the same Anthem shopping center as their previous location, they decided to merge the distinct names of the two offices into one brand— Vibrant Dental.
“We were very excited a bring state-of-the-art facility and brand to the Anthem area” said Dr. Nisson.
Each office boasts cutting-edge technology, which only adds to the stellar reputation of Vibrant Dental as one of the best Dentists in Henderson NV.
With over 4 years in their new office, the Doctors are very pleased with the service they have been able to provide to patients in both areas — Green Valley and Anthem — and look to continue to serve their patients for years to come.
