Before opening Dental Nook, Dr. James Cantua received his training at Creighton University and practiced dentistry in Nebraska. He is a member of the American Dental Association and the Academy of General Dentistry. He spends a considerable amount of time learning and mastering new dental techniques. If he is not in the office helping patients, he is likely at a training event preparing to bring you new procedures and treatments! He has received the International Congress of Oral Implantologists award for excellence in implants. He enjoys meeting new people and seeing friends of the practice every day.
Dr. James is excited to be in Colorado Springs and to treat the many wonderful patients in the area. Recently arrived from the Midwest, he and his wife are happy to raise their family in such a beautiful and hospitable community. They have 3 young children, so when the office closes in the evening, playtime at home begins! Life is sometimes crazy but very happy. It is Dr. Cantua’s hope to contribute to the community by providing compassionate care for all of our patients.
