"Those that have the ability to help, have an obligation to help."

This quote means a lot to Dr. Buring and our team. And on National Dentist Day, it feels like the right time to share why.

For Dr. Buring, dentistry isn't just a job. It's a way to use whatever skills he has to make people feel better, healthier, more confident, more at ease. Whether it's easing anxiety, fixing a problem that's been bothering you for years, or just being someone who listens, we're grateful every day that we get to do this work in this community.

To every patient who has walked through our doors: thank you for letting us help. You're the reason this work matters.

It's Dental Assistants Recognition Week, and we have so much to say about our lead dental assistant, Alyssa.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Where do we even start? Alyssa is the calm in the chaos, the one who keeps the back office running like a well-oiled machine, and the person who somehow manages to make every patient feel at ease—even when they're nervous. She has mastered the art of juggling a million tasks at once while still having a smile on her face.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Dental assistants are the heartbeat of a practice . They prep rooms, sterilize instruments, assist during procedures, and yes—they're often the ones holding your hand when you need it most . Alyssa does all of that and more, with a kind word and a laugh that lights up the whole office.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Alyssa, we see you. We appreciate you. And we honestly don't know what we'd do without you. 💙

Hearing that we’re personal, professional, thoughtful, and flexible is the best kind of feedback. Thanks, Steven! (And we’re pretty fond of our space, too. 😉) We’re so glad you feel well cared for at Summerwood.

Which toothpaste wins? Standing in the toothpaste aisle is overwhelming! Our team breaks it down.

There’s no single “best” toothpaste - it’s about what’s best for YOUR mouth.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Sensitive? Look for potassium nitrate or stannous fluoride.
Worried about enamel? Hydroxyapatite is a game-changer.
The most important ingredient of all? Fluoride.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Don’t overcomplicate it. Find one with fluoride that addresses your main concern (sensitivity, gum health, whitening) and that you like the taste of—so you’ll actually use it!

Dr. Buring, Jenna and Alyssa are holding their favorites.

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.
