ABOUT ME
Dr. Reese says, “The best part of being an orthodontist is witnessing the removal of a patients’ braces and seeing their new smile beam across their face. As an orthodontist, we have the unique privilege of changing how people view themselves and, in turn, can change their lives in a positive way.”
“My practice philosophy is to treat each patient as my own family. Providing high quality care while having fun is important to me, as my patients are trusting the future of their smile in our hands.”
“I began college to pursue engineering and later switched to medicine. My father’s career as a dentist introduced me to the profession, but orthodontics was a twist that allowed me to combine my physics and medical knowledge with my artistic skills to help others feel better about themselves.”
After graduating from Northwest Nazarene University, Dr. Reese received his Dental Degree and his Masters Degree in Orthodontics from the Indiana University School of Dentistry. He is a member of the American Association of Orthodontists, the Pacific Coast Society of Orthodontists and the Oregon State Society of Orthodontists.
Dr. Reese says, “I enjoy running, hiking, watching movies, and attending concerts. I love to explore new places to eat and play in Portland with my friends and my four young children.”
