About Pioneer Greens Dentistry

Pioneer Greens Dentistry began in the Clocktower Shopping Center as Haag Family Dentistry in 1992.  In 1996, Haag Family Dentistry became Clocktower Dental as they expanded their office. In 2005, it opened as Pioneer Greens Dentistry in their new building on 86th & Pioneers. Pioneer Greens Dentistry staff continues to provide the highest quality service and care for patients in Lincoln.

Pioneer Greens Dentistry strives to provide a relaxing and comfortable atmosphere where your concerns are truly heard and discussed.  We have an excellent staff!  Our office manager, Renee, is extraordinary at helping you understand the expenses and insurance associated with your dental care. Our dental hygienists, Shelly and Jennifer, are the main reason that many of our patients come to our office. They are gentle and thorough and are sure to make your hygiene visit enjoyable and informative. Jenny and Tonya, our outstanding dental assistants, are a source of comfort to our patients because they are excellent at helping you understand the procedures, keeping you comfortable, and assisting the doctors as if they can read their minds. Our entire staff will work together to make your visit to our office a unique dental experience that we are sure you will brag about!

What our patients are saying:

"My husband, our four girls (ages 3, 5, 7, and 9) and I have been seeing the Haags for our dental care for years.  My girls look forward to their appointments and “can’t wait” to go to the dentist.  Recently my 9 year old was upset when her sisters all were scheduled and she wasn’t.  She insisted that she “get to go to the dentist” and that I schedule her right away.  It’s amazing, but they love to go to the dentist.  Drs. Chris and Claire Haag and their associates are that good."

"Going to the dentist has not been on my list of favorite things to do.  However, Dr Chris and his staff have truly made the experience the most relaxing and “fearless” experience I’ve ever had in any dentist’s office.

On my first visit, I could not get over how warm, friendly, and reassuring the staff was.  I didn’t feel like a new patient.  I felt like an old friend.  The aftercare is impressive also.  After my visit on Friday, the doctor called me both on Saturday and Sunday to see how I was doing.  It is so reassuring to go to a dentist who cares enough about the patients to invest in the state-of-the-art equipment and cheerful, fresh environment."

"As someone who really disliked going to the dentist, I now recommend Pioneer Greens Dentistry in Lincoln, NE. My teeth were wearing down from years of grinding and I did not want to smile. I was referred by a co-worker and during the first consultation Drs. Chris and Claire really made the visit to the dentist a great experience for me and since then they have restored both my smile and my reason to do so! Their teamwork approach to dentistry is tremendous. The family and teaching atmosphere really appeals to me and Drs. Chris and Claire are the reasons that I go routinely to the dentist now! Thanks."
