The Miss Nevada Teen USA competition is the pageant that selects the representative for the state of Nevada in the Miss Teen USA pageant. This pageant is directed by The Atwell Group.

In terms of number of placements Nevada has had little success, however they have had the honour of having two runner-up placements: in 1998 Victoria Franklin was 2nd runner-up to Vanessa Minnillo, and in 2004 Helen Salas was 2nd runner-up to Shelley Hennig.

Five Nevada teens have won the Miss Nevada USA title and competed at Miss USA. Helen Salas of 2004 was originally 1st runner up at Miss Nevada USA 2007 but later inherited the title.
