For 5 years I haven't been able to chew on the right side. It's a few days after the procedure and I have no pain and can finally chew on my right side. I even fell asleep during the procedure!! I highly recommend!

High costs, and my two procedures didn't resolve my problem. I paid $1717 for a root canal in 2024…read moreafter being referred by my dentist. That was unsuccessful, so in April 2025 I had oral surgery for $2136. When I called yesterday to schedule an appointment due to swelling and pain in the affected area, I was told the cost to see me would be $440 since it's been more than a year (15 months) since my treatment. I'm sorry I didn't have my dentist pull that tooth two years ago, it would have saved a lot of money and is probably what's required now after two expensive and unsuccessful treatments. And I'd feel much better about the experience if they stood behind their work rather than charging me to come in again to see what's the matter now.

Yes I was nervous, but while waiting in the dental chair after getting an xray, you could hear conversations from the Dr's and Patients. They were all so kind to the patients, explaining every detail. And my Dr came in, was as well thorough. The procedure was to take about 40 minutes, To be honest, while they were not rushing at all the procedure of drilling, and filling with a few mere minutes.

Dr Houston is a great dentist , I had a terrible smile due to my front teeth after being broken…read moreyears ago and had been bonded back together several times. He capped my teeth and now I have a beautiful smile . I wrote a not so nice review of him due to the fact that another tooth , not the front ones , broke after eating something what I think may have been a bone or some type of hard object . I got quite upset and wrote a rude review, which I now regret . So with that I feel the need to apologize to Dr Houston and his team that I have known for many years of great service to me as well as my family . I would recommend him and do recommend him to be your Dentist as well as your family dentist.

I purchased my denture at Willamette Dental when I had dental insurance from work. It was still…read moreexpensive with insurance but not sure exact amount I paid for denture including extracting teeth. I had a crack in denture within a year and a half of purchase and Willamette Dental refused to work with me to get the denture fixed. I was willing to pay for some of the repair even though I knew I had been careful with it and never dropped it. They declined to offer help or even refer me out. When I came in for a estimate for repair the dentist said "as soon as you sit in the chair there is a charge" This was AFTER my exam...WTH? I'm like NOPE! An estimate is an estimate and nobody said there was a charge for that. As I was leaving the dentist was still unsure about charges. I knew I wasn't going to pay a dime for a visit! I went to another denture maker and paid $175 to have fixed and they BROKE AGAIN. I got a lemon and nobody wants to help or admit these are cheap ass dentures. I left on the most negative note possible, which was too bad because I thought they were a great bunch of people and the dentist was good. NOPE!

I would give this dentist zero stars, if that were possible…read more First of all, his practice has a series of dental chairs set up in a long row like a barbershop with no walls in between or privacy between patients whatsoever. Secondly, the dentist himself is borderline sadistic. The one time I went to see him, I was sitting in one of the chairs and he sort of snuck up behind me, sat down really close to me, and announced, "Hi! I'm Dave!" The next thing I knew as he went to examine my teeth, I suddenly felt a sharp pain because he poked me in my gum with a sharp instrument, unexpectedly, and caused my gum to bleed. He gave no explanation as to why he did this and no apology for causing me pain. I couldn't wait to get out of there. If you've ever seen the Steve Martin movie, "Little Shop of Horrors," you'll want to stay away from Dr. Lester.
