Kuhn Marshall, DMD

I’m not sure what it is with dentists in this town but a good one is hard to find. I went to this guy a few years ago for cleaning, x-​Rays and exam. Decided not to go back because the hygienist was so chatty and obnoxious I wanted to ask her if she had an off switch. The dentist was so-​so but not excellent enough for me to ever return.
One hit wonder.

I called around 15 dentists before I could find one open on Friday. I got an appointment at 8:00am with Dr. Tooke. I thought I had a minor gum infection because the pain wasn’t so bad, but an x-​ray showed an infection under a previous root canal. Dr. Tooke explained my options and I decided to go with an extraction and implant. The whole thing took an hour and a half (not the implant, you have to wait a few months for that). The process was painless. Dr. Tooke and his assistant (I can’t remember her name, I was a bit drugged) were totally committed to making sure the process was comfortable for me in every way. Anytime I raised my hand they immediately stopped and attended to the pain before continuing. As someone who has had many, many bad dental experiences I can not recommend them enough. The entire staff is wonderful in every way.

I used to hate going to the dentist… and then I came here. I love these people. They always go the extra mile to get to know their patients and I always have the most professional, non-​scary experiences.
Dr. Marshall, Teresa, Denise, Heather and Sandy… thank you for being great!

I have been seeing Dr. Marshall for the past eight-​years and never had a bad experience. It’s nice to know there are dentists out there who truly care about their patients the way Dr. Marshall and his staff does. I had a situation where I experienced a bad reaction in my mouth in which I was very concerned. I called his office and they were completely booked but still they were able to squeeze in some time after hours to see what was going on. He diagnosed my issue as an allergic reaction and never even charged me for the visit! I love these guys. Professional, caring, thorough and competent. What more do you want in a dentist?

ETA: I had to return the following week for an adjustment on this same filling, which had been causing me pain ever since the initial appointment. Dr. Kuhn did make an effort to talk about how the previous appointment had gone, as I had left the office crying, and explained to me in more detail what had happened with my filling, what the complications were about, etc. I appreciated that he did this, as I know direct conversation with an unhappy customer is not an easy thing to initiate.

Professional and great cosmetic work.

This guy rules. Don’t tell my current dentist (I moved to the east coast, what can ya do?) but I actually think Marshall Kuhn the Younger is my favorite dentist of all time. His hygienist was friendly and did a great job cleaning my choppers, and was friendly without too much conversation. When a lady’s hands are in your mouth, it’s sort of hard to be a part of the convo. So, then this young red-​haired guy comes in and tells me he personally thinks my tongue ring is cool, but he’d lose his dental license if he didn’t recommend I lose it. A funny, hip dentist? Only in Portland… Anyway, he told me there’s a hole in my tooth that will be a problem in about ten years. I knew this perfect smile wouldn’t last forever. Oh well. I left happy anyway.
