Comprehensive Dental Services for Tanasbourne Families

At East Wind Dental Care, we’ve built our practice around the philosophy of comprehensive care – providing all the dental services your family needs under one roof with consistent quality, coordinated treatment planning, and genuine personal attention.

Family and Preventive Dentistry

The foundation of lifelong oral health is regular preventive care, and our family dentistry services are designed to protect smiles at every age and stage of life. We provide thorough dental examinations that evaluate your complete oral health including teeth, gums, bite alignment, and jaw joints, professional dental cleanings performed by experienced hygienists who are gentle yet thorough in removing plaque and tartar buildup, digital X-rays that provide detailed diagnostic images with up to 90% less radiation exposure than traditional films, comprehensive oral cancer screenings that can detect problems in their earliest, most treatable stages, fluoride treatments to strengthen tooth enamel and prevent decay, and protective dental sealants for children and adults with deep grooves in their molars.

Dr. Ostovar believes strongly in patient education as the cornerstone of prevention. During your visits, our team provides personalized instruction on proper brushing and flossing techniques, dietary recommendations that support oral health, and customized strategies to address your specific risk factors. We treat patients from early childhood through the senior years, making us the ideal choice for Tanasbourne families who want one trusted dental practice for everyone. Our gentle, patient approach helps children develop positive associations with dental care that last a lifetime.

Advanced Cosmetic Dentistry

Your smile is one of your most valuable assets, affecting your confidence in both professional and social situations. Our comprehensive cosmetic dentistry services can transform your smile and change how you feel about yourself. We offer professional teeth whitening using the most advanced systems available, safely and effectively brightening your smile by multiple shades. Whether you choose in-office whitening for immediate dramatic results perfect for Tanasbourne professionals preparing for presentations or important meetings, or take-home custom trays for gradual whitening on your schedule, you’ll love the confidence that comes with a brighter, more youthful smile.

For more comprehensive smile transformations, we provide custom porcelain veneers that can address multiple cosmetic concerns simultaneously including chips, cracks, gaps, permanent stains, and even minor misalignment. These thin shells of premium dental ceramic are bonded to the front surfaces of your teeth, creating a flawless, natural-looking result that enhances your unique features. We also offer composite bonding for minor repairs and corrections, gum recontouring to improve tooth proportions and create better symmetry, and complete smile design consultations where Dr. Ostovar works collaboratively with you to create your ideal smile. Our cosmetic work is renowned throughout Tanasbourne for looking beautiful yet natural, enhancing rather than changing your appearance.

Restorative Dental Solutions

When dental damage or decay occurs, prompt and effective treatment prevents further complications and restores your smile to full health, function, and beauty. We provide tooth-colored composite fillings that repair cavities while maintaining the natural appearance of your teeth, dental crowns to restore severely damaged or weakened teeth to full strength and function, dental bridges that replace missing teeth by anchoring to adjacent teeth for a stable, functional result, and complete or partial dentures for patients with extensive tooth loss.

One of our most transformative restorative treatments is dental implants, which provide the most permanent, natural, and functional solution for missing teeth. Dental implants are titanium posts that are precisely placed in your jawbone, where they integrate with the bone tissue to serve as artificial tooth roots. Once healed, these implants support custom crowns, bridges, or dentures that look, feel, and function remarkably like natural teeth. Many Tanasbourne patients choose dental implants because they preserve jawbone health and facial structure, don’t require alteration of adjacent healthy teeth, provide superior chewing ability compared to other options, and can last a lifetime with proper care.

Our CEREC technology revolutionizes the crown and restoration experience by allowing us to complete your treatment in a single appointment. Using digital impressions, computer-aided design, and in-office milling, we create custom crowns, inlays, and onlays while you wait. No messy impression materials, no uncomfortable temporary crowns, no second appointment – just one convenient visit where you receive your permanent, custom restoration. This is especially valuable for busy Tanasbourne professionals who can’t afford to take multiple days off work for dental appointments.

Invisalign Clear Aligner Orthodontics

Straightening your teeth doesn’t require metal brackets and wires disrupting your appearance and lifestyle. Invisalign clear aligners offer a discreet, comfortable, and remarkably convenient way to achieve a beautifully aligned smile. These custom-made, virtually invisible aligners gradually shift your teeth into ideal position through a series of precision-engineered trays. Because they’re completely removable, you can eat whatever you like without dietary restrictions, brush and floss normally to maintain excellent oral hygiene, and remove them for important meetings, presentations, or special occasions.

Invisalign is extremely popular among Tanasbourne professionals and adults who want to improve their smile without the appearance and lifestyle limitations of traditional braces. The clear aligners are so discreet that most people won’t even notice you’re wearing them. Dr. Ostovar will create a sophisticated digital treatment plan that shows you the projected final results before you even begin treatment, and most cases are completed within 12-18 months. We offer flexible payment plans that make Invisalign affordable for Tanasbourne families, and the convenience of fewer office visits compared to traditional braces fits perfectly with busy schedules.

Emergency Dental Care When You Need It Most

Dental emergencies cause significant pain, stress, and anxiety, but East Wind Dental Care is here to provide expert help when urgent problems arise. Our emergency dentist services provide same-day appointments for Tanasbourne patients experiencing severe toothaches that interfere with eating, sleeping, or daily activities, broken, chipped, or fractured teeth from accidents, injuries, or biting down on hard objects, knocked-out teeth where immediate professional care can make the critical difference between saving and losing the tooth, lost fillings or crowns that leave vulnerable tooth structure exposed to further damage, dental abscesses and infections that can become serious health threats if left untreated, and soft tissue injuries to the gums, lips, tongue, or cheeks.

When you call our office with a dental emergency, we give you priority scheduling and work diligently to see you the same day, often within just a few hours of your call. Our experienced team will provide immediate guidance on steps to take to protect the tooth and manage pain while you’re on your way to our office. Dr. Ostovar will perform a comprehensive examination to diagnose the problem accurately, discuss all available treatment options, and develop an effective plan to address the emergency and prevent future complications. We always work to save your natural tooth whenever possible and ensure you leave our office comfortable, pain-free, and confident in your treatment plan.

Specialized Advanced Procedures

For complex dental needs beyond routine care, our practice offers specialized treatments including advanced root canal therapy using state-of-the-art techniques and technology that maximize comfort and success rates, periodontal treatment and maintenance for gum disease including deep cleanings and ongoing care programs, wisdom teeth evaluation and extraction when necessary to prevent crowding or infection, TMJ/TMD therapy for jaw pain, clicking sounds, headaches, or limited movement, custom sleep apnea appliances that provide an alternative to CPAP machines, and comprehensive full mouth reconstruction for patients needing extensive coordinated treatment. Our broad range of capabilities reduces the need for referrals to multiple specialists and allows continuity of care with a team you know and trust.

Why Tanasbourne Residents Choose East Wind Dental Care

Tanasbourne is home to numerous dental practices, yet countless residents make East Wind Dental Care their dental home. Here’s why we’ve earned the trust and loyalty of so many Tanasbourne families and professionals.

Dr. Ostovar’s Clinical Excellence and Expertise

Dr. Merat Ostovar brings an exceptional combination of advanced education, extensive clinical experience, and genuine passion for dentistry to every patient interaction. He has completed hundreds of hours of continuing education beyond dental school, consistently staying at the forefront of the latest techniques, technologies, and best practices in modern dentistry. His expertise spans all areas of dental care, from preventive and family dentistry to complex procedures including dental implant placement, full smile reconstructions, and advanced cosmetic transformations.

What truly distinguishes Dr. Ostovar in the eyes of Tanasbourne patients is his approach to patient care. He takes substantial time to listen carefully to your concerns, understand your goals and priorities, and develop personalized treatment plans that align with your needs, timeline, and budget. Patients consistently praise his gentle technique, clear and thorough explanations, genuine concern for their comfort and wellbeing, and the outstanding results he achieves. He treats every patient like a valued member of his own family, and this philosophy is evident in the long-term relationships he has built with Tanasbourne families who trust him with multiple generations of dental care.

State-of-the-Art Dental Technology

Advanced dental technology isn’t simply about having impressive equipment – it’s about providing more accurate diagnoses, more precise and conservative treatments, superior outcomes, and significantly enhanced patient comfort throughout every procedure. Our substantial investment in cutting-edge dental equipment directly benefits every patient we serve.

Our CEREC system represents a revolutionary advancement in restorative dentistry. This sophisticated technology allows us to design, create, and place custom dental crowns, inlays, and onlays in a single appointment. Using comfortable digital impressions instead of messy traditional molds, we create precise 3D models of your tooth. Dr. Ostovar then uses specialized CAD software to design a restoration that perfectly matches your bite, adjacent teeth, and aesthetic preferences. The design is wirelessly transmitted to our in-office milling unit, which carves your custom restoration from a solid block of premium dental ceramic while you relax in our comfortable office – usually taking about an hour. Most Tanasbourne patients are amazed that they can arrive with a damaged tooth and leave just 2-3 hours later with a completed, permanent, beautiful restoration.

Our digital radiography system provides remarkably detailed diagnostic images while exposing patients to up to 90% less radiation than traditional film X-rays. Images appear instantly on high-resolution chairside monitors, eliminating processing delays and allowing Dr. Ostovar to review and discuss findings with you in real time. The superior image quality helps identify potential problems in their earliest stages when treatment is most conservative, comfortable, and cost-effective.

For complex procedures like dental implant placement, wisdom teeth extraction, and evaluation of TMJ disorders, our 3D cone beam imaging provides comprehensive, three-dimensional visualization of your complete jaw structure, including bone density and quality, precise nerve locations, sinus position, and other critical anatomical features. This advanced imaging technology enables Dr. Ostovar to plan procedures with exceptional precision, significantly improving safety, predictability, and long-term outcomes.

Patient-Centered Care Philosophy

From your very first phone call through every subsequent visit, you’ll experience our unwavering commitment to patient-centered care. Our friendly front desk staff greets patients by name and works diligently to accommodate your scheduling preferences and needs. We respect your valuable time by running on schedule and starting appointments promptly. Our knowledgeable treatment coordinators provide clear, detailed, transparent cost estimates and help you navigate insurance benefits and financing options without pressure or hidden fees. We never push you into treatment decisions – instead, we thoroughly educate you about all available options and support whatever choices you make.

For patients experiencing dental anxiety, we offer multiple effective sedation options including nitrous oxide for mild to moderate relaxation and oral conscious sedation for deeper relaxation during more extensive procedures. Our treatment rooms are thoughtfully designed for maximum comfort with amenities including warm blankets, supportive neck pillows, noise-canceling headphones, and entertainment options. Many Tanasbourne patients tell us they’re surprised to find themselves actually looking forward to dental visits because of the welcoming, stress-free, supportive environment we’ve intentionally created.

When dental emergencies strike, you need prompt, skilled, compassionate care to address severe pain and prevent serious complications. East Wind Dental Care provides same-day emergency dental services for Tanasbourne residents experiencing urgent dental problems that can’t wait for a regular appointment.

Whatever the cause or timing, we’re here to provide expert help. Our comprehensive emergency services address severe toothaches caused by decay, infection, trauma, or other issues, broken or fractured teeth that need immediate repair to prevent further damage and restore function, knocked-out teeth where rapid professional treatment can potentially save the tooth, lost fillings or crowns that expose vulnerable tooth structure to sensitivity and further damage, dental abscesses and infections that require immediate attention to prevent serious health complications, and soft tissue injuries to the gums, tongue, lips, or cheeks from accidents or trauma.

This thorough new patient visit provides everything needed to comprehensively assess your oral health and establish a detailed baseline for your ongoing care. Dr. Ostovar will perform an extensive examination evaluating your teeth for decay or damage, your gums for signs of disease, your bite alignment and jaw joint function, and your overall oral health including oral cancer screening. We’ll capture digital X-rays to identify issues not visible during visual examination alone, including cavities between teeth, bone loss from gum disease, impacted teeth, and other concerns that require attention. Our skilled, gentle hygienist will provide a professional cleaning to remove accumulated plaque and tartar buildup that brushing and flossing alone cannot eliminate, and polish your teeth to a brilliant, healthy shine.

Beyond the clinical procedures, your new patient visit represents an important opportunity for us to get to know you as an individual. We’ll carefully review your complete medical and dental history, discuss any concerns you have about your oral health or the appearance of your smile, and answer all your questions thoroughly. If we identify any issues that need attention, Dr. Ostovar will explain his findings clearly using visual aids and discuss all available treatment options.

Ready to join our dental family and transform your oral health? Call (503) 614-0198 today to schedule your new patient appointment and take advantage of this limited-time $99 special offer.

Advanced Technology Enhancing Your Care and Comfort

Technology plays an increasingly crucial role in modern dentistry, enabling more accurate diagnoses, more precise and conservative treatments, superior clinical outcomes, and significantly enhanced patient comfort throughout every aspect of care. At East Wind Dental Care, we’ve made substantial investments in advanced dental technology that directly benefits every patient we have the privilege to serve.

CEREC Same-Day Dental Restorations

Our CEREC (Chairside Economical Restoration of Esthetic Ceramics) system has fundamentally transformed the experience of receiving dental crowns, inlays, and onlays for our Tanasbourne patients. Traditional crown procedures typically require messy, uncomfortable impression materials, wearing a temporary crown that may be sensitive or come loose for two to three weeks, and scheduling a second appointment for final crown placement. With our advanced CEREC technology, we complete the entire restoration process in a single convenient appointment.

The streamlined procedure begins with comfortable digital scanning using a small wand that captures precise three-dimensional images of your prepared tooth and surrounding teeth. No messy impression materials are needed. Dr. Ostovar then uses sophisticated CAD software to design your custom restoration with meticulous attention to proper fit, optimal bite alignment, and natural aesthetic appearance that blends seamlessly with your existing teeth. The completed design is transmitted wirelessly to our in-office milling unit, which precisely carves your restoration from a solid block of premium, highly durable dental ceramic in approximately one hour while you relax comfortably in our office. The finished restoration is then carefully refined, polished to a natural luster, and permanently bonded to your tooth using advanced adhesive technology.

Most Tanasbourne patients express genuine amazement that they can arrive at our office with a damaged or painful tooth and leave just 2-3 hours later with a completed, permanent, beautiful restoration that looks and functions exactly like a natural tooth. The remarkable convenience of same-day treatment is especially valuable for busy professionals working at Nike, Intel, and throughout the Tanasbourne business district who find it challenging to schedule multiple appointments around demanding work schedules.

Digital Radiography and 3D Imaging

Our state-of-the-art digital X-ray system provides exceptionally detailed diagnostic images while exposing patients to up to 90% less radiation than traditional film-based X-rays – an important safety advantage especially for children and patients requiring frequent imaging. The high-resolution images appear instantly on computer monitors in our treatment rooms, completely eliminating processing delays and allowing Dr. Ostovar to review and thoroughly explain findings with you immediately during your appointment. The superior image quality and enhancement capabilities help identify potential problems in their earliest stages when treatment is most conservative, least invasive, and most cost-effective.

For complex procedures including dental implant placement, wisdom teeth extraction, evaluation of TMJ disorders, and assessment of impacted teeth, our advanced 3D cone beam imaging provides comprehensive, three-dimensional visualization of your complete jaw structure, teeth positions, sinuses, and critical nerve pathways. This sophisticated imaging technology enables Dr. Ostovar to plan procedures with exceptional precision and safety, significantly improving predictability and long-term clinical outcomes. The technology is particularly valuable for implant cases, allowing detailed evaluation of bone quality and quantity and optimal positioning for both superior function and natural aesthetics.

Intraoral Cameras and Visual Communication

Understanding your dental health status and recommended treatments becomes much easier and clearer when you can see exactly what Dr. Ostovar sees during examination. Our high-resolution intraoral cameras capture detailed, highly magnified images of individual teeth and specific areas of concern. These clear images appear on chairside monitors, allowing Dr. Ostovar to show you precisely what he’s observing and explain his diagnostic findings and treatment recommendations in terms you can easily understand. This visual communication approach helps you make fully informed decisions about your dental care with complete understanding of the issues involved and all available treatment options.

Sedation Dentistry for Anxious Patients

Dental anxiety is remarkably common and should never prevent you from receiving the care you need to maintain optimal oral health and overall wellbeing. We offer multiple effective sedation options to ensure your complete comfort regardless of your anxiety level or the complexity of your treatment.

Nitrous oxide, commonly called laughing gas, provides mild to moderate relaxation and significant anxiety reduction while allowing you to remain fully conscious, aware, and responsive throughout your procedure. The pleasant effects wear off quickly after the gas is discontinued, allowing you to drive yourself home safely and return to normal activities immediately without any lingering effects.

For patients with moderate to severe dental anxiety or those undergoing more extensive procedures, oral conscious sedation creates a deeper state of relaxation and calm. You’ll take prescribed medication approximately one hour before your scheduled appointment that makes you pleasantly drowsy and deeply relaxed while still remaining responsive to Dr. Ostovar’s gentle instructions. Most patients report having little to no memory of the procedure afterward. You’ll need to arrange for a responsible adult to drive you to and from your appointment and should plan to rest comfortably at home for the remainder of the day while the medication effects completely wear off.

Dr. Ostovar will discuss your individual anxiety level, complete medical history, and planned treatment in detail to recommend the sedation option that’s most appropriate and effective for your specific situation and needs.

Insurance, Financing, and Payment Flexibility

Quality dental care should be accessible to everyone regardless of insurance status or current budget constraints. East Wind Dental Care works collaboratively with Tanasbourne patients to make necessary and desired treatment affordable and manageable through comprehensive insurance support and multiple flexible financing options.

Maximizing Your Dental Insurance Benefits

We gladly accept most PPO dental insurance plans and are in-network providers for many major carriers serving the Tanasbourne and greater Portland area. Our experienced, knowledgeable billing specialists thoroughly understand the complexities and nuances of dental insurance and work diligently to maximize your benefits and minimize your out-of-pocket expenses. We’ll verify your specific coverage details before your appointment, providing accurate, detailed estimates of what your insurance will cover and what your personal financial responsibility will be, so you’re never surprised by unexpected costs.

We handle all insurance claim filing electronically on your behalf, managing the paperwork, follow-up communications, and any issues that arise to ensure timely and accurate payment. If we’re considered out-of-network for your specific insurance plan, we’ll still gladly file claims and help you receive maximum reimbursement according to your plan’s out-of-network benefit provisions. Our primary goal is to remove the stress, confusion, and frustration from dealing with dental insurance so you can focus entirely on your oral health and treatment.

CareCredit Healthcare Financing

For treatments not fully covered by dental insurance or for patients without current dental coverage, we offer convenient financing through CareCredit, one of the nation’s largest and most trusted healthcare credit cards. CareCredit provides flexible payment plans with various term options, including promotional periods with reduced or even zero interest for qualified applicants, making significant treatments affordable and accessible.

This valuable financing option allows you to proceed with recommended or desired treatment immediately while spreading the cost over manageable monthly payments that fit comfortably within your household budget. Whether you need a single crown, multiple dental implants, complete smile makeover, or extensive restorative treatment, CareCredit makes it financially feasible. Our helpful staff can assist you in applying right here in our office, with approval decisions typically provided within just minutes. The simple, straightforward application process doesn’t affect your credit score unless you’re approved and choose to accept the offered credit line.

In-House Membership Plan for Uninsured Patients

For Tanasbourne patients and families without dental insurance coverage, our popular in-house membership plan provides an affordable, hassle-free way to maintain excellent oral health without the expense and complications of traditional insurance. Members pay a reasonable annual fee and receive comprehensive preventive care including regular examinations, professional cleanings, and all necessary X-rays, plus significant discounts on additional treatments like fillings, crowns, cosmetic procedures, and more.

The membership plan completely eliminates the hassles of insurance claims, confusing paperwork, frustrating waiting periods, restrictive annual maximums, and coverage limitations that often prevent needed care. You receive transparent, predictable costs and consistent, high-quality care from a team that knows you well. The plan offers special value for families, with attractive discounted rates when multiple family members enroll together.

Our friendly financial coordinator is always happy to meet with you to explain all available payment options in detail and help you choose the approach that best fits your individual financial situation and treatment needs. We firmly believe that financial concerns should never prevent anyone from receiving necessary dental care, and we’re genuinely committed to working with you to find workable solutions.

Patient Success Stories from Tanasbourne

Jennifer and Mark W., Tanasbourne

“We moved to Tanasbourne two years ago when my husband transferred to the Nike Campus, and finding a great dentist for our family was a top priority. East Wind Dental Care exceeded our expectations in every way. Dr. Ostovar is incredibly skilled and patient – he’s wonderful with our three kids and makes dental visits actually fun for them. I recently completed Invisalign treatment here and absolutely love my results. My teeth are perfectly straight now and the whole process was so much easier than I expected. The office is just minutes from our home near Tanasbourne Town Center, the technology is impressive, and everyone on the staff treats you like family. We couldn’t be happier with our dental care.”

David L., Cornell Road

“I had neglected my dental health for years due to severe anxiety from bad childhood experiences. By the time I finally made an appointment at East Wind Dental Care, I had multiple problems needing attention. Dr. Ostovar and his entire team were incredibly understanding and never once made me feel judged. They offered sedation options that made it possible for me to receive the care I desperately needed. Over the past 18 months, we’ve addressed all my dental issues including two dental implants and several crowns. The implants are amazing – they look and feel completely natural. I actually don’t dread dental appointments anymore. The drive from my home near Cornell Road takes less than 10 minutes. I only wish I had found this practice years ago.”

Amanda K., Nike Campus Area

“Working at Nike means I have a demanding schedule with limited flexibility, so the convenience and efficiency of East Wind Dental Care is perfect for me. They offer early appointments before work and I can usually get in and out during my lunch hour because they run on schedule. When I cracked a molar badly on a Friday, they got me in the same day and fixed it with a CEREC crown completed in one visit. I was back at work that afternoon with no pain and a perfect restoration. Dr. Ostovar is clearly an expert who stays current with the latest technology. The entire staff is professional, friendly, and respectful of my time. I recommend them to all my colleagues.”

The Patterson Family, Tanasbourne Town Center Area

“Our entire extended family sees Dr. Ostovar – from our 6-year-old daughter to my 72-year-old mother who lives with us. He provides excellent care for all ages and has such a gentle, reassuring manner. Our daughter actually asks when her next cleaning appointment is because the staff makes it such a positive experience. My mother needed extensive work including new dentures, and Dr. Ostovar created ones that fit perfectly and look completely natural. My wife got veneers and her smile transformation is stunning – she looks ten years younger and her confidence has soared. We live just minutes away near the Town Center and feel fortunate to have such an outstanding dental practice so close to home.”

We’re easily accessible via Cornell Road, Evergreen Parkway, or Cornelius Pass Road.

Do you accept dental insurance from Tanasbourne area employers?

Yes, we accept most PPO dental insurance plans regardless of your employer or residential location. We’re in-network with many major carriers and also work effectively with patients who have out-of-network coverage. Our billing specialists will verify your specific plan’s benefits and coverage details, file all claims electronically on your behalf, and work diligently to maximize your benefits and minimize your out-of-pocket costs.

Can you see me the same day for a dental emergency?

Absolutely. We prioritize dental emergencies and maintain dedicated appointment availability specifically for urgent cases. When you call with a dental emergency – severe pain, broken tooth, lost filling, knocked-out tooth, or other urgent issue – we work to see you the same day, typically within just a few hours. We treat emergency patients from throughout the Portland metro area including Tanasbourne. Call (503) 614-0198 immediately if you have a dental emergency.

What is CEREC and how does it benefit busy professionals?

CEREC is advanced technology that allows us to design, create, and permanently place custom dental crowns, inlays, and onlays in a single appointment. Instead of messy impressions, uncomfortable temporary crowns, and a second visit weeks later, you receive your permanent restoration in one convenient visit, typically within 2-3 hours. This is especially valuable for busy Tanasbourne professionals working at Nike, Intel, or other area employers who find it difficult to schedule multiple appointments around demanding work commitments.

Do you treat children and families?

Yes, we provide comprehensive family dentistry for patients of all ages, from young children through seniors. Dr. Ostovar and our entire team have extensive experience with children and create positive, fun dental experiences that build healthy habits for life. We’re gentle, patient, and skilled at making kids comfortable and cooperative. Many Tanasbourne families choose us because every family member can receive excellent care in one trusted, convenient location.

Is Invisalign available for adults?

Definitely. Invisalign is an excellent choice for adults who want to straighten their teeth discreetly without the appearance and restrictions of traditional braces. The clear aligners are virtually invisible – most people won’t even notice you’re wearing them. They’re also completely removable for eating and special occasions. Treatment typically takes 12-18 months, and we offer flexible payment plans to make it affordable. Dr. Ostovar will create a digital treatment plan showing you the projected results before you even begin.

What sedation options do you offer for anxious patients?

We offer multiple effective sedation options to accommodate different anxiety levels and procedures. Nitrous oxide (laughing gas) provides mild to moderate relaxation while allowing you to drive yourself home afterward. Oral conscious sedation creates deeper relaxation for patients with significant anxiety or extensive procedures – you’ll need someone to drive you home with this option. Dr. Ostovar will discuss your individual anxiety level and recommend the best option for your specific needs and situation.

How much does dental treatment cost?

Costs vary depending on the specific treatment needed. We provide detailed, written cost estimates before beginning any treatment, clearly outlining what your insurance will cover if applicable and your anticipated out-of-pocket expense. We accept most PPO insurance plans, offer flexible CareCredit financing, and have an affordable in-house membership plan for uninsured patients. Our goal is to make quality dental care accessible and affordable for all Tanasbourne families.

What are your office hours?

We offer flexible hours designed to accommodate busy Tanasbourne professionals and families, including early morning appointments before work, evening appointments after business hours, and select Saturday availability. When you call to schedule, our staff will work with you to find a convenient appointment time. Call (503) 614-0198 to learn our current schedule and book your appointment.

What should I bring to my first appointment?

Please bring a valid photo ID, your dental insurance card if you have coverage, a current list of any medications you’re taking including dosages, and information about any dental concerns, questions, or goals you have. If you’re transferring care from another dentist, we can request your previous records, but it’s not required before your first visit. We recommend arriving about 10 minutes early to complete any necessary paperwork comfortably.

Do you offer teeth whitening for Tanasbourne professionals?

Yes, we offer professional teeth whitening using the most advanced, effective systems available. We provide both in-office whitening for immediate dramatic results – perfect for professionals preparing for important presentations, meetings, or events – and custom take-home trays for gradual whitening on your own schedule. Professional whitening is significantly more effective and safer than over-the-counter products and can brighten your smile by several shades.
