Mr Charles Edelen

Dr. Edelen received his undergraduate and dental degrees from The Ohio State University. He graduated from the OSU College of Dentistry in June 1985, after which he became a commissioned officer with the United States Public Health Service. While in the USPHS he worked for the Indian Health Service on two different Indian Reservations in Montana and Wyoming. After five and a half years in the Public Health Service, Dr. Edelen and his wife Julie (Redinbo) returned to Sidney in the spring of 1991, where he opened his private dental practice. Dr. Edelen currently resides south of Sidney on a farm in Orange Township with his wife Julie and their three children Kellie, Jake and Ryan. The farm is mainly for crops, but has horses, dogs, cats and plenty of fresh air. Dr. Edelen is an avid outdoorsman and enjoys hunting, fishing and camping. He is very active in the Boy Scouts organization (Troop 95), with his sons and has taken two backpacking trips in New Mexico. He has also traveled to Africa twice to donate dental care in Tanzanian villages and the Angel House Orphanage with a group led by Dr. Lisa Alvetro. While there, he climbed Mount Kilimanjaro. Dr. Edelen enjoys golf, skiing, spending time with his family, and anything that has to do with the great outdoors. He is an avid fan of The Ohio State University Buckeyes and is proud of the family tradition of attending school there, which is where he and Julie met. Proficient in all areas of general dentistry, Dr. Edelen has also completed several post-graduate courses of continuing education and strives to always stay abreast of all the latest advancements in modern dentistry.
