General Info

Dr. Manny Rapp opened Adaven Children's Dentistry in September 2002 and from the beginning, our goal has been to help each child who comes into our office to have a positive dental experience. This will help ensure that they have a lifetime of good oral health. In case you were wondering where the name Adaven comes from, we will tell you. Adaven is a backward spelling of our home state, Nevada! The idea came to Dr. Manny (this is what the kids call him) while at Creighton Dental School in Omaha, Nebraska. Multiple places in Nebraska are named Aksarben, which is Nebraska spelled backward. If it is good for Nebraskans, then it is good for Nevadans! We hope that you find your visit to our office very comfortable and educational. We have a very child-friendly office and staff and are committed to treating each patient with concern and respect. We look forward to seeing you!
