Through advanced dentistry and compassionate care, Dental Images helps patients find the smiles that will last a lifetime.
A confident, healthy smile can light up a room — and at Dental Images, the mission is to help every patient feel that confidence. Led by Dr. Steven Brock and Dr. Chase Nieri, the practice blends modern dental technology, genuine compassion, and decades of expertise to deliver results that go far beyond the surface.
A Legacy of Care and Innovation
Founded in 1986 as Living Tree Dental Care in Powell, the practice moved to Downtown West Boulevard in 2006 and became Dental Images. From day one, the focus has been whole-body wellness. “Many people don’t realize that issues like heart disease, inflammation, and even sleep apnea can begin in the mouth,” says Dr. Brock. “Our goal is to treat the whole person, not just their teeth.”
With more than 30 years of experience, Dr. Brock has built a reputation for excellence in complex restorative dentistry and dental implants. Joining him in 2017, Dr. Nieri brings a gentle touch and exceptional cosmetic artistry. His calm, friendly chairside manner has earned him recognition multiple years in Cityview’s Best of the Best for both Family and Cosmetic Dentistry.

Dental Images offers a comprehensive range of services, including:
- Cosmetic Dentistry & Smile Makeovers: whitening, veneers, crowns, aligners, and implants

A Team That Makes You Smile
The Dental Images team is known not just for skill, but for compassion. Dr. Chase Nieri has once again been recognized as a Cityview Best of the Best winner for both Family and Cosmetic Dentistry. Dental Hygienist Melody Frank earned this year’s Gold Winner award for her gentle, attentive care. Past multi-year honoree Madison Williams continues to set the standard for professionalism and comfort.
From the moment patients walk in the door, they are welcomed like family — seen, heard, and cared for.
