With a high quality education under her belt, she is eager to put her knowledge and passion to work for folks in Portland.<\/p>\n<p>Although she hasn\u2019t always lived in the Pacific Northwest, she truly enjoys our area. She loves to take her dog for hikes, and she loves skiing at Mt. Hood. When basketball season is going, she is right there to cheer on our awesome Trailblazers.<\/p>\n<h2>Our Services<\/h2>\n<p>We offer pretty much all of the services you need to attain and maintain a healthy smile, including:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Preventive dentistry. <\/strong>Get ahead of decay and gum disease by visiting us for cleanings, checkups, sealants, and more.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Restorative dentistry.<\/strong> Whether you need a root canal, a bridge, dentures, or another treatment to get your smile back to 100 percent, you can count on us.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Dental implants.<\/strong> Have missing teeth?
