Dr. Terry’s Biography
As a dental officer during a 15-month deployment to Iraq for the U.S. Army, Dr. Terry was honored to care for the dental needs of military personnel and Iraqi civilians. It was earlier, though, while studying biology and shadowing a friend in the field that he realized this was the area in which he wanted to serve others. He’s known for his attentiveness to not only his patient’s words but also their nonverbal clues, always working to ensure everyone’s optimal comfort. What stood out about Willamette Dental was its focus on evidence-based dentistry and the quality of care provided.
Because he’s close to his family, weekends are often spent with them either enjoying outdoor activities or participating in community service projects.

I would like to be able to make all my dental/orthodontic appointments simultaneously and not have to have a filling repair before making an orthodontic appointment. This policy delays treatments.

Oct 18, 2025
I was happy to get an appointment quickly when I broke my tooth but saddened that I would have to come back to have the tooth prepared for a crown. I was surprised that the dentist suggested that I could wait to do this, particularly when it was a 2 month wait! I can't imagine walking around with a broken, hard edged tooth for 2 months!

They were so nice and very understanding! When I got nervous about getting anesthesia, the hygienist was so sweet and offered to hold my hand (lol). I shed some tears and the Dr. was patient with me and understanding. Though I haven't been at this clinic for long, I have only good things to say :)
Sep 18, 2025
I was treated well, and listened to. Happy patient
Sep 19, 2025

Dr. Terry is a great listener & did a thorough exam regarding the tooth pain I experienced. I am thankful that I was able to be seen as soon as possible.

I really like the staff and the Dr. They are all very friendly and welcoming. My only gripe is the 2 months in between appointments to take care of my dental issues.
Aug 29, 2025
Form my first interaction with the front desk, individuals to the hygienist to the dentist. Everyone I came in to contact was friendly and helpful. This made my first appointment with a new dentist and provider, very pleasant and reassuring, which reduced the stress and anxiety. Thank you you
Aug 29, 2025
Dr. Terry and Ariana made this a fun appointment for my child. My daughter liked that Ari asked her lots of questions about herself and was really nice. Thank you for doing a great job explaining everything.

Aug 17, 2025
Amber at the front desk is absolutely amazing. And Dr. Terry always makes sure that I am calm enough with the nitrous oxide and my mouth is numb enough before he starts any work. And I really appreciate that because I have way bad, bad dental anxiety. So I just want to put that out there every time I come. Amber is super, super nice. I am professional and Dr. Terry is amazing.
Aug 16, 2025
Great and helpful
Aug 8, 2025
I had my teeth cleaned and I have been experiencing pain all most like a nerve is exposed. I don't know why. I will call and let my dentist know.

They treat you like family like you really matter. ?
Jun 13, 2025
My son had some interesting comments to share about the side conversations his hygienist was having during his appointment. Something about the legality of a person killing their own pet in the state of Idaho? My son said he wasn't bothered by it, but certainly commented on how odd it seemed.
Jun 12, 2025
I always love coming here. Kind, professional and efficient. My kids love the prizes and good bags!
Jun 7, 2025
You guys are the friendliest and professional practice I've been to ever. Keep up the good work!

Mar 31, 2025
I was treated well by the staff I encountered. I was asked what I wanted regarding my treatment rather than being given their opinion like it was my only option. I appreciated that. I was pleasantly surprised by the estimated out-of-pocket expense for the treatment I opted for.
Mar 29, 2025
The front desk lady is amazing!
Mar 21, 2025

Too long a wait for appointments
Mar 15, 2025
My hygienist was very nice and easy to talk to! 1st time I had a male hygienist at Willamette and appreciated him listening to me and we had nice conversation together! Highly recommend!
Mar 15, 2025
I was very pleased with my visit as I've always been. I would have liked my dentist to get better acquainted with me the first time, and be more detailed in helping me to understand my options. A better recommendation of treatment would also be helpful.
Mar 9, 2025
a very friendly staff!!!
Mar 9, 2025
It was good
Mar 7, 2025
Amazing with kids. Made my son so comfortable and even though it was a bad news visit he left saying he loves the dentist.
Mar 2, 2025
I thought it was a great experience except she had to wait about 45 min for the dr to come in when I sat in the lobby watching 6 other patients in and out after she went in.

Feb 16, 2025
There's a need for another dentist so that dentist appointments are not 2 months out.
Feb 14, 2025
Great experience getting my teeth cleaned and checked.
Feb 13, 2025
Scheduling a root canal 3 months out on a hurt tooth seems a bit much
