Nathaniel Powers, DDS, MD

Dr.  Nathaniel Powers grew up in Mill Hall, Pennsylvania, where he completed his schooling through high school. With a father who practiced dentistry, he had early opportunities to shadow in both dentistry and medicine, and those experiences helped him narrow his focus to oral and maxillofacial surgery. He is excited to join Pittsburgh Oral Surgery as part of the team, bringing his surgical training and dedication to patient care to the community.

Dr. Powers attended Davidson College, where he majored in Chemistry and was a four-year starter on the school’s Division I wrestling program, serving as team captain his senior year. He went on to earn his Doctor of Dental Surgery (DDS) from Columbia University College of Dental Medicine.

He then matched into the Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery program at the University of Pittsburgh and UPMC, where he also earned his Doctor of Medicine (MD) from the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine and completed a year of General Surgery training at UPMC.

He is a member of the American Association of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons (AAOMS) and the American Dental Association (ADA).

Outside of residency, Dr. Powers enjoys golfing and spending time with his wife, Alyssa, and their two sons, Landon and Bryson. The family loves pool days, trips to the zoo, and cheering on the Steelers and Penguins.
