Dr. Robert W. Nisson discovered his passion for dentistry as a child when he was tasked with creating orthodontic models for his dentist father, Dr. LeRoy Nisson. Throughout his scholarly and professional career, Dr. Nisson has earned numerous achievements that helped put his name on the map and give him a strong foundation that his patients can rely on. After graduating from high school in Granada Hills in 1979, Dr. Nissan attended Dixie College to earn his associate’s degree in science. He held the position of Freshman Class president. He completed his undergraduate studies at the University of Utah, and then completed his dental education at the University of Southern California School of Dentistry.

In dental school, Dr. Nisson fell in love with all areas of dentistry but was most intrigued by Tooth Morphology and Dynamics of Occlusion. His academic excellence and devotion to his studies earned Dr. Nisson the position of American Dental Association representative for his school. As the representative, he traveled throughout the country observing classes in different dental schools. He was also 1 of 3 students selected to have sedation and twilight sleep privileges, allowing him to gain experience administering drugs to patients going through oral surgery, or experiencing dental anxiety. After his graduation from dental school, Dr. Nisson founded Warm Springs Dental. The most recent expansion to his practice was the opening of Anthem Village Dental. Dr. Nisson is excited to see what the future holds for his practice and is thrilled to continue to serve the wonderful members of the Henderson community.
