Mary Mercier, DDS
Since a young age, she has had an interest in dentistry, which led her to complete a dental exploratory program for high school students through Creighton Dental School. She officially started her dental career as a dental assistant for 4 years in college before earning her Doctor of Dental Surgery degree from the University of Nebraska Medical Center.
She went on to complete an Advanced Education in General Dentistry residency at the U.S. Air Force Academy in Colorado Springs, CO. During her 4 years of active-duty service with the U.S. Air Force, Dr. Mercier practiced at bases in Turkey and Germany where she led programs for forensic dentistry, infection control, access to care for remote detachments across Europe, and dental care for special duty patients related to nuclear surety.
She has been recognized with multiple honors, including two Humanitarian Service Awards and the Air Force Commendation Medal for Meritorious Service, reflecting both her clinical excellence and her commitment to serving others. With expertise ranging from oral surgery to CAD/CAM technology, she combines advanced science with a compassionate approach.
Dr. Mercier was born and raised in Omaha, Nebraska, so she enjoys cheering on the Cornhuskers. She has been involved in both local and international outreach providing care through Clinic of the Heart and completing a dental mission to Honduras. In her free time, she has some very well-rounded hobbies including traveling, skiing, riding motorcycles, sailing, playing the drums, and horseback riding.
The Dentist Other Dentists Trust
The staff and Dr. Dudley are all so concerned that what they are doing works for you. Dr. Dudley is excellent about showing you photos and X-rays on the computer and actually helping you see what he is going to be working on, how he is going to do it and exactly what needs to be done.
After having a couple not so amazing experiences with past dentists, I’m so glad I found Dr. Dudley. From the moment you walk in the door, you know you are going to be well taken care of. The staff is always so friendly and I have never walked out of my cleaning without my teeth feeling amazing! Dr. Dudley always checks your teeth himself as well and spends a couple minutes with you just to chat. You don’t see many doctors taking any interest in their patients much anymore. How refreshing! Just an example of how amazing Dr. Dudley is: After YEARS of doctors telling me a bump in my lip from a sports injury was considered plastic surgery, Dr. Dudley was able to get me a referral to an oral surgeon. the front desk worked with the insurance, and the bump was gone two weeks later. Thanks Dr. Dudley!
The decision of where I would refer my wife (because she didn’t want an orthodontist providing her primary care) was easy! She and I both went to see Dr. Dudley and have been very happy with that decision ever since!
