Office Staff

Dr. Thomas Nenninger

Dr. Nenninger began his professional journey as a physiotherapist, joining the Terrace community in 1979. His interest in dentistry developed during his treatment of temporomandibular joint (TMJ) conditions, nowadays recognized as a dental subspecialty. In further pursuit of this interest, Dr. Nenninger went on to complete additional undergraduate degrees, and obtained his Doctor of Dental Surgery at the University of Alberta in 1994. Since graduating from dental school, Dr. Nenninger has worked as a general dentist in Terrace and surrounding areas, including clinics in Dease Lake and Stewart. Dr. Nenninger has trained extensively in the fields of orthodontics, cosmetic dentistry and implant surgery.

Dr. Nenninger’s love of incorporating technologies into dental procedures is what makes Horizon Dental his most ambitious project yet. His goal in creating Horizon Dental was to blend traditions that make us feel comfortable with cutting edge technologies in order to provide the most modern and up to date dental facility available to the communities we serve. When he is not doing dentistry, Dr. Nenninger spends time with his family and enjoys hiking, fishing and skijoring with his team of Siberian Huskies.
