Dr. Tanner is a 2007 graduate of Oregon Health and Science University’s School of Dentistry. He received the Rose Award for outstanding patient care and a fellowship for neuroscience research which was later presented and published. Currently, Dr. Tanner is a member of our local Dental Society as well as the American Dental Association and the Academy of General Dentistry.

Even though Dr. Tanner has received and delivered formal medical dentistry training, he intimately understands that Nature has designed us in specific ways to heal and adapt. Dr. Tanner’s holistic, wise and balanced approach to dentistry is often best for the patient.

Dr. Tanner believes in supporting strong communities. He regularly volunteers his time providing free dental work to people in need with Medical Teams International. He encourages you to contribute any time you can in community service as well.

In his spare time he enjoys running, reading, camping, hiking, cooking, and spending time with his wife and five children. Additionally, Dr. Tanner is fluent in Japanese and speaks some Spanish.
