Dr. Brent Nail

Dr. Brent Nail, DMD, is a proud graduate of The Medical College of Georgia, where, in addition to studying to be a general dentist, he participated in advanced oral surgery studies. Admittedly a perfectionist, Dr. Nail takes great pride not only in the details of dentistry but also in creating the absolute best experience possible for patients.

Dr. Nail designed Athens Oconee Dentistry as a thoroughly modern paperless dental practice utilizing state-of-the-art digital X-rays and the latest technology. But he never forgets the human side of dentistry. Your comfort is our priority. You’ll find televisions with a choice of movie channels in every room and Wi-Fi throughout the office.

Dr. Nail and his wife, Mary Lynn, grew up near Vidalia, Georgia, where Mary Lynn’s father was a practicing dentist for 50 years. They are the proud parents of twins and are active in Watkinsville First Baptist Church.

This was my first visit to this practice. It was truly impressive….it was beautiful and very clean. The staff was wonderful! They were patient and guided me through and explained the upcoming future procedures, the dentist was extremely thorough and patient with my many questions. I’m excited I found my new dentistry!

Leiane B

Dr. Nail and his staff are so amazing. I had my teeth cleaned and checked by Dr. Nail. I have a follow up to address a cavity and I was scheduled promptly. I love going to Dr. Neil’s office and getting my teeth cleaned and checked.

Kristi W

Dr. Nail and his staff have been exceptional in not only having my sleep apnea appliance made but also in helping me to find the exact right fit. They have gone above and beyond in fitting me in and putting a rush on the lab when necessary. I cannot say enough good things about the team here!

Danni C

I love Dr Nail and his staff. They are all so incredibly nice and genuine. Appointments never feel rushed. They are very ‘real’ with how they talk to you, never pushing services and undue cost, but ensuring you’re well informed so you can make a properly educated decision for your health. I recommend them to everyone who asks for a great dentist
