Our pediatric dentists and staff create a place where children and their families feel safe and supported. We understand a typical clinic setting may be challenging for some children, so we tailor care to the pace of each individual child. We also offer general anesthesia, if helpful, at Providence St. Vincent within the Gerry Frank Center for Children’s Care, which is designed exclusively for children and families. 

Oral health is important to a child’s overall health. By providing a positive dental experience, we encourage children to develop good dental care habits. Our dentists are experienced in working with children who have special health care needs and have a great way of gaining kids’ trust. 

Most dental insurance plans are accepted, including Oregon Medicaid and private pay.

We are located on the second floor of Providence Child Center. There is a parking garage attached to Providence Child Center for your convenience. View a campus map to locate Providence Child Center.

Children receiving general anesthesia receive care at Providence St. Vincent Medical Center, within the Gerry Frank Center for Children’s Care. View a campus map to locate the Gerry Frank Center for Children’s Care.
