Dentistry,
slowed down.
Most of our patients haven't been to a dentist in years. That's okay — we start where you are, explain everything before it happens, and stop the moment you ask.
We designed every step around the fear, not around the teeth.
About one in seven adults puts off the dentist out of fear. If that's you, you're not broken — you're exactly who we built this for.
A conversation, not a chair
Your first visit is just talking. We learn what happened before and what you're afraid of — fully clothed, sitting up, no instruments in sight.
Stop anytime
Raise your hand and everything pauses. No sighs, no rush, no making you feel small for needing a moment.
Sedation, openly discussed
From a calming pill to deeper sedation — we'll walk through every option and the honest trade-offs of each.
Why nervous patients trust us
Calming options
From a simple pill to full sedation — your choice, explained plainly.
15 years of nervous patients
Dr. Reyes has spent a career welcoming people who almost didn't come.
Every price, up front
You'll know the cost before anything happens. No surprise bills.
Quietly well-equipped
Modern, low-noise tools — and headphones, blankets, and breaks whenever.
I built this practice for the version of me that used to cancel appointments.
I know what it's like to sit in the parking lot and drive home. So Stillwater runs on one rule: nothing happens to you without your understanding and your okay.
I grew up in Southeast Portland, a few blocks from where we are now. You'll find me at the Belmont farmers' market on Saturdays, and once a month at a free clinic for neighbors without insurance. This is my corner of the city, and you're my neighbor.
You're not the only one who was scared.
I cried in the parking lot afterward — happy tears. First time in fifteen years I sat in that chair.
They told me the cost up front and let me stop twice. Nobody made me feel like a baby about it.
The headphones, the blanket, the window. It honestly felt like a friend's living room.
The questions people are afraid to ask.
We talk, sitting up and fully clothed. No imaging, no cleaning, no instruments. We learn your history and what worries you, then plan the next step together — only if you want one.
Never. Most of our patients haven't been in a long time — that's exactly who this practice is for. There are no lectures here.
Yes. Raise your hand and we pause immediately, every single time. You are always in control of what happens and when.
We tell you the full price before we do anything, and we'll lay out options honestly — including doing nothing today. No surprise bills, ever.
