RiverPlace Dental

I had an emergent issue on a Sunday. I called Sunday morning and left a message hoping I could get in Monday morning for, well, anything. I walked in Monday morning knowing I may not even be able to be seen with their other appointments already scheduled. Well, I rang the bell and Megan came out to greet me. She had gotten my message. She had looked in my chart and reviewed my history. She knew I needed to be seen. She got my in! Her team member got my x-rays stat. She reviewed my probable diagnosis with me. She was 100% correct, it was really bad. She referred me to Malmquist Oral Surgery one floor below and due to Megan's good reputation and strong relationship with them, Malmquist got me right in as well.

Granted I had only seen Megan one time. I was hardly an established and known patient. She really took care of me. I will continue to see her.

Everyone at the office is extremely professional and warm. They certainly make the dental visit a comfortable experience that puts me at ease immediately. Dr. McInnis is very gentle and she provides sound advice. I have moved around the country quite a bit and have had many dentists and she is one of the best.

Dr. McInnis and her staff are great! I recently had to switch dentists and am so happy that I did. Megan does the cleanings herself and is very quick and thorough. I had to have a few fillings done and I was completely comfortable during the procedures. I would recommend her to anyone who needs a dentist!

Like a lot of people, I don't like going to the dentist. I put off some dental work and was really dreading the experience of going back for multiple appointments. I got an appointment with Dr. McInnis as a new patient and I am SO glad that I did. Dr. McInnis and her team were extremely thorough and went above and beyond to make sure that I was comfortable despite coming in with a lot of anxieties. The procedures were painless because of their careful attention to detail, and Dr. McInnis talked me through all of them. I am so grateful to have found such an exceptional dentist!

A great dental experience every time!
Dr. McInnis and the staff are wonderful. Everyone makes you feel comfortable and welcome. From a simple cleaning to a filling, a crown and a tooth extraction, every time the visit is awesome!
A very down-to-earth and professional office. Making an appointment is easy and the reminders are great. RiverPlace Dental is a gem! I highly recommend them to anyone who wants to look forward to going to the dentist.

We were so pleasantly surprised to find this jewel of a dental office. I was fortunate enough to get a next day appointment. Right away I was pleased that they have free parking. The office is clean, bright, and welcoming. Patient comfort, attention to detail, stellar staff, and Dr Block's passion for helping people have confident smiles, are just a few reasons why we give this office a 5 star rating. They made us feel good about spending our money. Thank you Dr Meghan, Hannah, and Debbie for making a trip to the dentist so painless.

Very friendly! My first visit was nothing short of enjoyable, which for a dentist visit, is a huge compliment! Everyone on the staff made me feel welcome. The appointment was smooth and painless. During the x-rays and cleaning, they walked me through what was happening so I knew why they were doing certain things, which in my 27 years of life has never once happened. I really appreciated that, as often times you're sitting there, mouth wide open, having no clue what is going on, how long something is going to take, etc. All in all, I am very happy I found this office and will be going back!

I actually love going to the dentist now! Dr. McInnis is down to earth, funny, and is overall a great dentist! The rest of the staff is also very personable and welcoming. They've created a very professional and efficient environment without sacrificing a sense of ease and comfort. I especially love how they'll give you a hot towel at the end of the visit with lavender in it and a sugar free lollipop. It's the little things like that which make the whole experience feel positive. Looking forward to going back in six months!

I moved to Portland a few months ago and was looking for a dentist in the downtown area. I got a postcard about Dr. Block's dental practice in the mail and decided to schedule an appointment after seeing other positive reviews online.

When I called to schedule the appointment, I spoke with Debbie on the phone. She was so kind and patient in helping me find a time to come in that worked with my schedule as well as helping me navigate through the benefits of my new dental insurance (including what would be covered and what I would expect to pay out of pocket).

When I arrived for my appointment, I checked in with Debbie at the front desk and she helped me get started with the new patient forms. As I was filling them out, Debbie offered me coffee or the various flavors of La Croix they have available in the lobby. This definitely left a positive impression and I was appreciative of the great hospitality.

Ashley, Dr. Block's Assistant, gave me a warm greeting and then led me to an open examination room towards the back. I usually find the dental x-ray to be extremely painful for my gums, but Ashley was very gentle and made sure to ask if I was comfortable as we took multiple x-rays of different sections of my teeth. Afterwards, Dr. Block came in and examined my teeth, and then cleaned/polished them as well. From past dental visits, I'm used to seeing a hygienist or a dental student perform the teeth cleaning, so it was quite refreshing to see Dr. Block pay such close attention to the care and condition of my teeth.

Dr. Block found two cavities, which I was initially skeptical of due to not having cavities since I was in high school, but she showed where they were on the x-rays and explained that they were those old fillings that started to wear away over time. Luckily, I was able to get another appointment with Dr. Block to get them filled the following week, just in time before the winter holidays.

The icing on the cake from my experience was the fact that Dr. Block asked about my current mouth guard/dental device, which was causing me a lot of pain when I wake up in the mornings. She helped me get fitted for a new (and thinner) mouth guard and even went the extra mile of providing my insurance company with documentation to see if they would cover part of the additional cost!

Overall, I was very impressed with the level of care and service I received from Dr. Block, Ashley, and Debbie. I'm used to having a very transactional relationship with my health care providers, so I was very appreciative of the fact that they made the effort to get to know me and build a rapport with me as well. I highly recommend RiverPlace Dental if you are looking for a new dentist in the downtown Portland area!

Look no further! RiverPlace Dental is the best. Dr. McInnis and her team go above and beyond to care for you. Even my husband, who has a lot of dental issues and hates going to the dentist loves this place. Dr. Mclinnis is very knowledgeable, skillful, and compassionate. The entire office makes you feel like part of the family! The quality of care at RiverPlace Dental is extraordinary, and I am truly grateful to have found them.
