Meet Dr. Greenhalgh


Here's a little history on Dr. Greenhalgh,if you are new to our office or our website!

Dr. Del Greenhalgh (pronounced Green-hall, but you can just call him Dr. Green) was born and raised in the desert of southern Idaho.  After graduating high school, he began his education and Idaho State University.

After completing the first year of his undergraduate degree, he took two years off from college to serve a mission for his church in Spain.  After completing the mission, he returned to Idaho State University and finished his bachelor's of science degree in Microbiology, and he graduated with honors.

Dr. Greenhalgh went on to attend University of Florida College of Dentistry.  During dental school he was involved in research of periodontal disease, took as many orthodontic and oral surgery electives as possible, and spent many extra hours in the oral surgery clinic.  Dr. Greenhalgh also went on a dental mission trip to the Dominican Republic, where he was a Spanish translator and provided dental work for the many people that do not have access to dental care.

After graduating from the University of Florida College of Dentistry, Dr. Greenhalgh did some surgical rotations at a hospital in New York City.  He practiced in Dallas before eventually moving to El Paso, where he took over for a doctor that was retiring, Dr. Connie Nicholson.

Dr. Greenhalgh is a member of the American Dental Association, the Texas Dental Association, and local El Paso Dental Society.  He is also a certified Invisalign provider, a graduate of the Garg Dental Implant Continuum, and has received extensive training in different orthodontic techniques.  He also speaks Spanish!

Welcome!

Welcome to Green Family Dental!  We are a general dentistry office that strives to provide the most comprehensive, quality care possible for our patients.  That's why we offer try to offer as many services to our patients as possible, so you don't have to go to several different offices to get your dental care.  Like most offices, we offer cleanings, fillings, crowns and bridges.  But we also do braces, wisdom teeth extractions, dental implants and dentures in our office.

We want our office to be a place where you can bring the whole family, kids, parents, grandma and grandpa.  You don't have to take the kids to one office for their cleanings and fillings, and then go to a different office for their braces.  You don't have to go to  the oral surgeon to have a dental implant placed, and then back to a general dentist to have the crown placed over the implant.  We can do it all here at Green Family Dental. 

If you want to learn more about our office and see how we can help you have a healthy, great looking, smile, visit our website, www.greenfamilydental.com, or call us at 915-778-4681.  We'd love to meet you!
