Practice Philosophy
Willamette Dental Group focuses on proactive dental care. Proactive care means we focus on preventing disease rather than treating it surgically, when clinically appropriate.
- We practice evidence-based dentistry, evaluating each patient’s specific circumstances scientifically then creating a personalized treatment plan.
- All of our services are based on the latest research and years of reliable science, leading to the safest, most effective treatment available.
