Riverside Dental · Bellevue, WA · Since 2012
Family dentistry without the pamphlets.
A two-dentist practice in Bellevue serving Eastside families since 2012. Cleanings, fillings, crowns, whitening, kids’ first visits, the things that put off a panic appointment. Same-week openings for new patients; same-day for active patients with a real problem.
What we do
A general practice, in the older sense
Preventive, restorative, cosmetic, and pediatric. We handle most of what a Bellevue family needs from a dentist without referring out; the small list of things we refer out, we have a short list of specialists we trust.
01
Preventive care
Cleanings, x-rays, oral cancer screening, fluoride. Twice a year for most patients; more often if periodontal disease has a foothold.
02
Cosmetic dentistry
Whitening, veneers, bonding, Invisalign. We will tell you which of these you actually want and which are sold to people who do not need them.
03
Restorative care
Fillings, crowns, bridges, root canals, single-tooth implants. Most done in-house; complex implant cases co-managed with an oral surgeon we trust.
04
Family & pediatric
First visits from age 2. Sealants, fluoride, sports mouthguards, the kid-friendly chair, the patience for a four-year-old’s first cleaning.
