Meet Dr. Blackwell Nill

Beth Blackwell Nill, D.D.S., M.S.

Dr. Beth Blackwell Nill grew up in Lee’s Summit, graduating from Lee’s Summit High School in 1987. She received her Bachelor of Arts in Biology, and completed dental school at the University of Missouri at Kansas City, graduating first in her class. After dental school, she headed north to complete her orthodontic training at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota. While at the Mayo Clinic, she received her master’s degree in biomedical science and had the opportunity to be part of their cleft palate team, dealing with many deformities of the face and jaws.

Dr. Nill joined her father’s practice in 1996. She is an active member of the American Association of Orthodontists, the American Dental Association, and many community foundations and other dental study clubs. She has been voted one of Kansas City's top dentists by her peers and is also listed as one of America's Top Dentists. Dr. Nill has worked closely with Children’s Mercy Hospital, St. Luke’s Hospital and Truman Medical Center to provide orthodontic services to aid cleft palate children and other dental deformities.

Dr. Nill is married to Dr. David Nill, a family practice physician who works for United Healthcare. They have two sons, Collin and Dylan, and a very energetic Spaniel named Arnold.

Dr. Nill has dedicated her life to children and can think of no job she would rather have than to be here making your kids smile!
