I created Modern Dentistry Associates to provide patients with highly-​personalized dental care in a comfortable setting. My staff and I are committed to helping our guests fully understand their dental condition so that they can make informed choices about their treatment that will fulfill their hopes and expectations.

With extensive post-​graduate education, high-​tech equipment, excellent materials, and a genuine concern for others, we elevate the standard of care for dentistry.

«The less you know, the more normal things look.» With over 1000 hours of post-​graduate education, I understand the role that teeth and the muscles of the head and neck play in overall health, including TMJ pain and obstructive sleep apnea. To that end, I am able to use neuromuscular dental techniques to solve dental problems as well as medical issues.

History

Established in 1989.

In 1989, Dr. Erickson purchased the dental practice of Dr. Edward Atwood. He practiced in the original location until 1997, when he renovated the adjacent suite and purchased all new equipment. By 2003, however, the business had expanded so much that the decision was made to build an entirely new facility that was three times as large as the current facility. It was at this time, as well, that Dr. Erickson began an extensive post-​graduate study curriculum at the Las Vegas Institute for Advanced Dental Studies to deliver a higher standard of care to patients who needed and desired it. He regularly attends courses and meetings that share the latest developments in advanced dental concepts, including, but not limited to, general dentistry, esthetic dentistry, neuromuscular dentures, neuromuscular full-​mouth reconstruction, neuromuscular TMJ treatment, and neuromuscular sleep apnea treatment. The staff also participates in regular continuing education opportunities.
