Over a decade ago, returning to Delta Junction, we made a binding personal and professional commitment to bring state-of-the-art dental care to interior Alaska with a patient comfort focus. After all, we’re serving family, friends and neighbors, and we’re not just family-owned and operated, we treat our team and our patients like family. It’s why at The Delta Dentist, your comfort is a non-negotiable promise.

She also loves volunteering her dental skills with the non-profit organization Remote Area Medical (RAM) when they come to Alaska.
Amanda
Growing up around dentistry, it’s little wonder that Dr. Bradley Oliver’s oldest daughter would share his passion for the profession and love for helping others. She attended Carrington College where she became a Restorative Dental Hygienist. First working with her father in his Oregon Clinic, and when The Delta Dentist opened in 2014, traveling between the two clinics for nearly a year.
It wasn’t long before Delta Junction had again captured her heart. After spending ten years in Delta before moving to Oregon, Alaska had again won her over, and with it came fierce determination to see and experience all that Alaska has to offer. Today, Amanda’s favorite activities include snow machining, racing fearlessly side-by-side with men in the Interior Alaska Racing Association, visits to the family cabin at Summit, and relentlessly seeking out the next adventure that life in Delta Junction makes possible.
