Dentistry done differently
Voted Best Dentist Office by Portland Tribune readers in 2024 and 2025.
Same-day crowns
Our CEREC machine mills a permanent porcelain crown in the office, so a broken tooth is often finished in one appointment instead of two.
Sedation for anxious patients
Tell us when you call. We plan the time and the sedation option so the visit is calm from the first minute.
Same-day emergency care
We keep slots open for toothaches and broken teeth, so you are seen the day you call rather than next week.
The cost before we begin
Every option and its price is explained before treatment starts, and most insurance is accepted. No surprises on the way out.
They're not just new teeth. It's a new life.
Our smile makeover treatments combine artistry and modern dental science to help you achieve the confident, natural smile you've always wanted.
A makeover can combine whitening, bonding, veneers, crowns, implants and clear aligners, planned together around your smile and your budget.
Results vary from patient to patient.
“I absolutely love Dr. Shim and his team. I had a horrible experience as a child at the dentist. I was terrified just getting a cleaning. Dr. Shim has been wonderful and has worked with me through my fear. He does amazing work.”
