Please join family, friends, colleagues, and the Harvard School of Dental Medicine community in honoring the life and legacy of Dr. Donald Nelson.

An assistant clinical professor of orthodontics, Nelson devoted more than 45 years to clinical practice and over 30 years to teaching, mentoring hundreds of orthodontic residents. His generosity, clinical wisdom, and dedication live on through the orthodontists he trained and the techniques and protocols he taught.
