Dr. Nielsen's Biography — Colorado Springs Dentist, Brent Nielsen, spent his early life just south of Denver in Highlands Ranch where he moved with his parents (Les and Carol) and brothers (Scott and Aaron) in the summer of 1989. He quickly grew to love Colorado and all that it had to offer. Hiking, biking, skiing and fishing became favorite pastimes during countless hours exploring the mountains along the Front Range. In 1996 he graduated from Highlands Ranch High School and headed off for new adventures in the mountains of Idaho and Utah as he completed his undergraduate education at Brigham Young University. While in college, Brent met and married his wife Julie and they both headed off to Florida where he pursued his dental education at Nova Southeastern University College of Dental Medicine in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. While in Florida Dr. Nielsen and his wife welcomed their first child, Clementine, into their home during his final year of dental school. After a grueling four years of rigorous dental training he earned his dental (DMD) degree and began planning his future. The opportunity arose to continue his dental education further at Yale University in New Haven Connecticut. Dr. Nielsen was one of three young dentists to receive the invitation to study with the Yale University School of Medicine General Practice Residency program. This highly competitive program opened new doors and an infinitely greater understanding of the practice of dentistry. While at Yale he gained hands on experience and individualized training by some of the most well respected and highly specialized dentists and medical professionals in the world. Included in this residency were rotations through internal and emergency medicine, anesthesia and general surgery, as well as oral surgery and pediatric dentistry. This experience has made Dr. Nielsen uniquely qualified to handle a wide variety of complex dental needs while providing patients with the comfort, clinical expertise and care they should expect and deserve. Following his residency in Connecticut, Dr. Nielsen decided to bring his talents back to the great state of Colorado! In the summer of 2009 he returned to Denver and began practicing as an associate dentist at a couple different group practices. During this time he and his wife had their second child Lily, giving him his long awaited “Native Coloradan.” Clementine soon warmed up to her new little sister and have since become inseparable. Having two girls and an overload of estrogen in the house has helped Dr. Nielsen reestablish his love for the Colorado mountains and hone his skiing, snowboarding and fishing skills to unimaginable levels! While appreciative of the opportunities working in these group practices afforded him, Dr. Nielsen felt he could be of greater assistance to patients in a solo practice setting. So, the search was on to find the perfect place to practice. After many hours, days and weeks searching, he found a place to land in the foothills area of Northwest Colorado Springs in the Mountain Shadows Neighborhood. Being one of the practicing dentists in Colorado Springs has been a great experience for Dr. Nielsen where he has forged lasting bonds with his patients and the communities of Mountain Shadows, Peregrine, Rockrimmon and the Garden of the Gods areas.

Dr. Crabtree's Biography —  I truly have been blessed to find a profession that I love and that I am very passionate about. I not only get to work with truly fantastic people, but every day I see people from every walk of life. From the youngest child to the older patient deep into retirement and everyone in-between, I love and enjoy talking to our patients and learning about each other’s lives. I feel like every day I get to make new friends that I hope will last for many years to come.I grew up in the little town of Roy, UT, which is about 35 miles north of Salt Lake City. After graduation from dental school, we moved to Montana and I joined a large group practice. While we had a great experience there, we always knew we would end up in Colorado. When the practice came available, we jumped at the chance to make Colorado Springs our home.I married my high school sweetheart 18 years ago and now have 6 wonderful kids. Tyler, Alyssa, Haylee, Addyson, Blayke and Brinley. It is an understatement to say that our life is crazy. From soccer to school and everything in-between, it seems as though we just go, go, go.We love the outdoors and are excited to ‘explore’ all that Colorado has to offer. My family and I are excited for the opportunity to make new friends, see new things and have a great time here in Colorado. Education and Continuing Education After attending The University of Utah, I received my doctorate degree from Creighton University in Omaha, NE. As with any profession, graduation is never where the studies and learning stops. In order to make sure that each patient receives the best possible treatment, I am constantly seeking ways to improve my skills.Continuing education is a very important part of my practice. I have received additional training in implants, cosmetic dentistry and pediatric dentistry. Right now I am attending advanced training in implants at the Misch Implant Institute. We strive to offer the most advanced technology and seek to provide the best care possible. Working with and maintaining strong relationships with other members of my profession is easily as important as taking formal continuing education classes. Those in any profession function best as a team. Each professional encounters unique challenges. Together, we keep one another informed of clinical experience and research through writings, discussions, and meeting one on one regarding the latest discoveries, best practices, and most recent technology. I am committed to making sure each new patient I encounter receives the benefits of this collective knowledge.
