What sets our practice apart? It’s not just the technology or the techniques—it’s the time we take. In a world where appointments can feel rushed and impersonal, we’ve intentionally built a different model. Here, your consultation isn’t 10 minutes—it’s as long as it needs to be. We don’t just look at your x-rays and tell you what you need; We explain the why, show you the how, and listen to your when. You’ll never hear a sales pitch from us—just honest, personalized recommendations. Because when you understand your smile, you can truly care for it. And that’s what lasting health is all about.

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
This is the ultimate goal for us: to become your trusted dental home.

We don't take the privilege of being your chosen practice lightly, and we're committed to continuing to earn your trust with every visit.

Ever heard of “mask mouth”? 😷 With many of us back to wearing masks in the winter, you might notice a not-so-fresh feeling by the end of the day. It’s real—and preventable!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Mask-related dry mouth happens when we breathe more through our mouths, reducing saliva flow. Saliva is your mouth’s natural cleaner, so less of it means more bacteria buildup and bad breath. Our tip? Stay extra hydrated, chew sugar-free gum to stimulate saliva, and never skip your morning and evening brushing—especially your tongue! And if you’re a mouth breather in masks, try nasal breathing exercises. Your breath (and your teeth) will thank you.

When you come in for a check-up, you might think we’re just on a "cavity hunt." But a truly comprehensive exam is about so much more!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
We’re looking at the complete picture of your oral health. This includes a thorough screening for oral cancer—a quick and painless check that could save your life. We’re also deeply assessing your gum health, because gums are the foundation of your smile; issues here can affect your overall health. We examine your bite and jaw joint (TMJ) for signs of wear, tension, or misalignment that could lead to headaches or pain. We use advanced tools and technology to see what the naked eye can’t, ensuring nothing is missed. This 360-degree approach allows us to catch potential problems early and create a care plan that supports your long-term wellness, not just your teeth. It’s preventive care at its most powerful.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Ready for an exam that cares for your whole smile? Experience the Summerwood difference. Book your comprehensive check-up online or give us a call!

Invisalign is famous for creating beautifully straight teeth, but its benefits go far beyond aesthetics! A properly aligned smile is a healthier smile.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
When teeth are crowded or crooked, they create hard-to-clean nooks and crannies where plaque and tartar love to hide, significantly increasing your risk for cavities and gum disease. A misaligned bite can also put excessive stress on your jaw joints and muscles, leading to chronic headaches, neck pain, and TMJ discomfort.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
By using Invisalign to guide your teeth into their ideal positions, we’re not just crafting a stunning smile—we’re creating an occlusion that functions harmoniously and is much easier to keep clean for a lifetime. It’s a perfect example of how we blend art and science; we use the precision of Invisalign technology to achieve a result that is as healthy as it is beautiful.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Ready to invest in a straighter, healthier, and more confident you in the New Year? Start with a free Invisalign consultation with us.

Cosmetic & General Dentistry

Dr. Julie Spaniel operates Summerwood Family Dental, near Bridgeport Village in Tigard. Her philosophy is establishing trust, one patient at a time.

Dr. Spaniel had the privilege to develop a practice based on genuine trust. She has the experience and expertise to perform at the highest level of quality. Dr. Spaniel takes pride in being an active member of the American Association of Oral Systemic Health. The premise that our oral health is directly related to the health of our entire body. We cannot live our best life and be at optimal health if our mouth, teeth, gums and oral tissues are inflamed and unhealthy. Understanding the individual needs of each person, how their medical history impacts their life and oral health allows her to tailor each plan of care to best fit a patient’s lifestyle.
