Find Services for a Lifetime of Smiles

You and your family members deserve to have attractive smiles. This is much more likely when you have a consistent oral care routine. This starts at home when you brush your teeth twice daily and floss once per day. You should also make regular visits with your dentist at least twice each year for professional care.

During these appointments, you can get one or more of our many services:

  • Dental Cleanings and Exams - We provide a thorough cleaning of your teeth and an assessment of your oral health. We use advanced technology, including digital X-rays, to monitor changes to your teeth.
  • Guided Biofilm Therapy - This advanced cleaning technique removes harmful biofilm from your teeth, so your mouth can be as clean as it has ever been. We are the first practice in Oregon to offer this service.
  • Orthodontic Care - Using clear aligners, you can correct bite concerns, straighten crooked teeth, and close spaces in your smile. Both teens and adults have seen success with this discreet orthodontic solution.
  • Restorative Dentistry - When problems arise, you want solutions. We can fix everything from cavities to replacing a complete arch of teeth.
  • Oral Surgery - You can save a lot of time by coming to our office for your dental surgery. We can perform tooth extractions (including wisdom teeth) and other procedures right here.

Your comfort is important to us as well. We can use our decades of experience to provide personalized treatment. You may want to take advantage of our amenities. Get cozy with a blanket and pillow. For added assistance, ask about our sedation options.

Call 866-552-4346 to schedule an appointment with your family dentist in Portland, OR. By coming to Kennedy Dental, you can have healthy and beautiful smiles for many years to come.

Common Questions About Family Dentistry

What is family dentistry?

Family dentistry focuses on protecting the smiles of you and your loved ones. A family dentist is skilled in treating patients of all ages, ranging from young children to seniors. They offer a range of services, from happy appointments for children to cosmetic, restorative, and other dental procedures for everyone else in the family.

Why should I go to a family dentist?

If you have kids, it's a good idea to go to a family dentist because it will simplify the task of keeping your family's smiles in good shape. Getting your dental care in one place means you'll have all your dental records in one location, which makes it easy to transfer them if you move. Also, you can schedule multiple appointments with just one phone call.

What should I look for in a family dentist?

One of the most important things you should look for in a family dentist office is one that routinely treats a wide age range of patients with a variety of dental problems. When your family dentist has the experience and expertise you need, you can rest easy knowing your family will receive the best smile care possible.

Going to Kennedy Dental was by far the best dental visit & consult I've had. I'm fairly dental phobic but Kassie explained everything she was going to do before hand & while she was cleaning my teeth as well. I have alot of broken & missing teeth in my mouth & hadn't been to the dentist in years. Dr. Kennedy was very nice & so personable. I actually have alot of hope now that with their help, I will have a healthy smile back soon. I am very grateful for Dr. Kennedy, Kassie & Nancy. They all made me feel much better. 😊

I've been seeing Dr. Kennedy and his staff for four years now. I cannot say enough good things about these people.

Always professional and kind! I have been a patient at Lombard Dental since 1996. Dr. Kennedy is always so patient with me as I have some anxiety at the dentist. His staff is so comforting and attentive towards me…. Always offering a blanket or emotional support. I left for a few years as my place of employment changed and I completely regret it…. But I am back now and so happy to be! Thank you, Kennedy Dental! If I could give you 10 stars I would! Rochelle Drakos

I had an absolutely amazing experience at Kennedy Dental. It was my first time visiting the dentist in awhile and the team was super helpful and responsive in answering my questions and scheduling an appointment online. The team addressed concerns I had with my teeth and showed genuine interest in my overall health. While I did purchase some oral care products, I didn't feel like they were pushing any services on me. I was very relaxed and afterward my mouth didn't ache like it does after walking out of some dentist offices. Money is always a concern, especially when not all health insurance covers dental care. The office has some great first-time patient specials and ongoing care plans for those who have to pay out-of-pocket. When I left I didn't realize how much time I had spent there, but they covered a lot of procedures from x-rays to pictures, cleaning, etc., but I was there for almost two hours. So if you're going there for a first-time visit I would just make sure you leave yourself enough time for the appointment. I definitely will be going back to them in the future.
