At Portland Children's Dentistry we provide exceptional, comprehensive dental care to our patients from infancy through adolescence. Our priority is to create a friendly and comfortable environment where our young patients will have a positive dental experience. We make dentistry fun while teaching children and families the importance of good oral health.
Our vision is to create quality care environment and treat children and families with respect. Dr. David and Dr. Patty met during their residency at OHSU. They became close friends and talked for years about opening a practice together. Their shared vision of quality care, treating children and families with respect, and having fun created a foundation of Portland Children's Dentistry.

Hi, I'm Shannon, and I am the Business Manager at PCD. I have been in the dental field for about 8 years. I am a people person and enjoy connecting with and helping people on a personal level. What I love best about my job is the way a positive experience in the dental office can change a person's life.
Restorations
Report
White (or "composite") restorations are a good option for fillings in both front and back teeth. We make sure to use latest dental materials available to ensure a good, safe and long lasting filling. A pulpotomy may be indicated in baby teeth where the cavity has reached the nerve and blood vessels (or "pulp") that are in the center of the tooth.
Emergencies
Report
Gently rinse the tooth off with some water if it has dirt or debris on it, and avoid scrubbing the tooth. If the child is young, place the tooth in a Tupperware with some milk to transport it to our office. Don't place the tooth back in the mouth of a young child, as they may swallow it.
If the child is older, you can have them gently place it back into the socket, or suggest that they hold it between their lip and gums to transport it to our Portland office.Do a visual inspection of the area, look for food matter or things that might be stuck between the teeth, and remove what you find by gently flossing the area.
