Cottonwood Dental

Cottonwood Dental is the practice of Dr. Rachel Brown-McDonald, DDS, who offers biological and functional dentistry for patients of all ages, from infants to seniors. The office is known for tongue and lip tie revisions done with laser technology, which the practice says help with breastfeeding and speech concerns, and for Safe Mercury Amalgam Removal. Other services include laser dentistry, dental implants with metal-free ceramic options, fillings, crowns and bridges, extractions, and preventive care.

The practice is open Monday through Thursday during business hours and closed on Fridays and weekends, so calls for scheduling are the way in. Dr. Brown-McDonald works with lactation consultants, and the office has a quiet room for nursing mothers, an in-house speech-language pathologist, and myofunctional therapy offered by an outside provider. Patients come from Grand Island and nearby communities such as Hastings, Kearney, Ord, and North Platte.
