Wonderful dental office. The service is exceptional. The confirmation text to the welcome when you walk in the door- both receptionists at the front t desk said hello and smiled. Ronda (sp?), the hygienist that worked on me was great. My previous hygienists have also been wonderful. Dr. Robinson is always upbeat, friendly and highly experienced. I can easily say this since I am also in the dental profession. I would highly recommend this office.

Exceptional care from highly skilled, personable dentist (Dr. Robinson) and his staff!! I have had a lot of dental procedures in my life (I'm in my mid-70s) and found Dr. Robinson when we moved to OR. He is by far the most skilled and highly relatable professional I have experienced. Additionally, his staff is particularly remarkable in not only their own skill sets, but in the true healing qualities of authentic interaction that we all need in this ever fast paced disconnected world. There's so much more that one receives from this office along with excellent dentistry!! As a medical professional myself I couldn't give a higher recommendation.

C. J. (Verified Patient)

Dr Robinson's office epitomizes professional quality and personalized warmth. With LO Dentistry, you always have comfort and peace of mind knowing you are well taken care of throughout a visit!

A. S. (Verified Patient)

Thanks so much for completing a full cleaning and exam though I was almost a half hour late.

Frequently Asked Questions About General Dentistry

What’s included in a general dentistry visit?

A general dentistry visit usually includes a thorough exam, professional cleaning, and digital X-rays if needed. During your appointment, we'll check for signs of cavities, gum disease, or bite issues. Your dentist will discuss any symptoms you've been noticing, like sensitivity, dry mouth, or grinding. Our team takes time to explain your oral health clearly and answer your questions.

How often should I come in for a cleaning and exam?

You typically benefit from visiting every six months, but your needs may vary depending on your oral health history. If you're managing gum disease or other ongoing conditions, we may recommend more frequent visits. Our team will always explain why a specific schedule makes sense for you.

 Can you help with dry mouth or bad breath?

Yes. If you're struggling with dry mouth or frequent bad breath, we'll work with you to identify the cause and recommend personalized solutions. For bad breath, we may advise you on hydration strategies, special products to use at home, or other treatments that improve saliva flow. Chronic bad breath (halitosis) can also be a sign of gum disease or underlying dental issues that can be addressed through professional cleanings and other treatments.
