Portland Dental Anesthesia

Anyone looking for an amazing and compassionate anesthesia experience must use Portland Dental Anesthesia. I have severe dental phobia and several heath issue that make anesthesia a challenge. Portland Dental Anesthesia was absolutely amazing every step of the way from the pre op to the post op and beyond. I highly recommend them for any of your dental anesthesia needs.

Dr Ryan and Denise are so knowledgeable, friendly, and reassuring. All of my daughter's concerns were treated respectfully and completely delt with. We had beyond a positive experience with them.

Dr. Ryan and Denise are amazing to work with! They listened carefully to all of our concerns, and even requested notes from other specialists we worked with to make sure they were providing the very best care for our daughter. Well, they met our expectations and beyond! All went very smoothly. No problems afterward. If we have to use anesthesia again they are the team we want and we won't waste our time being worried, that's for sure!

Wonderful experience for my son with autism. My eleven year old with special needs was very nervous but they were extremely patient with him through the whole process. They called ahead of time to see what he needed and what would make him more comfortable. Denise spent a good 45 minutes with me on the phone going over his special needs before the procedure. Denise was patient while my son decided how he wanted to be put under. Dr. Allred was kind and compassionate. He came over to my son to show him the mask he would be breathing through and let him touch it to get him comfortable. He fell asleep with no pain and no trauma. When he woke up they brought us to him and both Denise and Dr. Allred stayed with us the entire time he was waking up. They didn't rush him to be ready to leave and told us to take our time. After he was ready Denise walked us to our car and praised my son for doing such a good job and handling it all well. My son is excited to go back for his two week follow up! It couldn't have gone any better. We are so grateful for Portland Dental Anesthesia for taking great care of our child. Highly recommend!

Caring, thoughtful and sincere concern while helping with dentist phobia. Listened to concerns and worked with us to make a 5 star experience. Thank you

My daughter was in good care with Dr. Allred and Denise. They were both very kind and gentle. Thank you!

Appreciate everyone taking care of my precious little guy! Went above and beyond, don't think I could trust another like this!

I was probably one of their most nervous moms having a two year old going under anesthesia. They didn’t make me feel silly for being so upset. They acknowledged how serious this was but also how serious they take it. 100% professional yet family oriented.

My 8 year old daughter needed to have 2 extra teeth extracted for orthodontic treatment and like any parent I was very nervous for her to be put under. We showed up at the Dentist office at 5am as scheduled. An hour went by and the dentist nor the office manager had heard anything from Dr.Allred. We went home unsure of what was going to happen and then got a call from the dentist office and ended up returning at 7am to have the procedure done- two hours after scheduled time. Dr. Allred offered nothing more than “I’m sorry my alarm didn’t go off”. It was incredibly unprofessional and left bad taste in my mouth but I just hoped he was rested and we could get the procedure done. My daughter had to get a shot which she was aware of. He gave my daughter bubbles - told her to blow bubbles and then sneak stuck her with the needle. I don’t understand this because Denise, who took all the information from me, had asked what will make her the most comfortable and I told her my daughter liked to be explained to what was being done while it was being done. None of the information I gave her was utilized by Dr. Allred. I also don’t understand the distraction with bubbles when my daughter is 8, almost 9, years old. She can handle a shot and didn’t need to be distracted anyway-which I had told Denise on the phone as well that she handled shots pretty well. He didn’t even pinch the area to deaden the nerves so it wouldn’t hurt as bad. It was ridiculous. So of course the shot works fast and my daughter passed out crying. It was horrible. The procedure was quick and when she woke up she was crying- for 40 minutes straight. Dr.Allred came by and said that’s normal and then I never saw him again. His assistant Mellissa was helping as much as she could but between me, my mom and her we were barely able to contain my daughter and keep her from hurting herself while she was crying and flailing around coming off of the medicine. Dr. Allred did not come by and help at all although I know

Dr Allred is very gentle and sweet. Made me feel calm and comfortable for wisdom teeth removal at age 49. Highly recommend him!

Dr. Allred and his staff are amazing! I was absolutely terrified when I was told my 4yr old daughter needed general anesthesia to have a couple teeth extracted. I got to talk with Dr. Allred assistant Denise a couple days prior, she answered my questions and put me at ease. She talked me through step by step what the process was going to be. The day of the procedure I got to talk with Dr. Allred. Super easy to talk to. He truly understands how difficult this can be for parents. He sat with me and answered the additional questions I had. He was absolutely amazing with my daughter! I new she was going to get a shot prior so they could place a IV catheter and I was absolutely dreading it! My daughter freaks out with vaccines so I was waiting for a meltdown, but Dr. Allred amazingly distracted her with bubbles!!! I was amazed! It was over before she even realized what happened! The whole process went so smoothly. I got to sit with her after when she was waking up and Denise stayed with me and then helped me out to the cars once my daughter was ready. I can not sing there praises enough. They really took what I thought was going to be a terrifying experience and made it surprisingly somewhat relaxing. They are incredible! Thank you Dr. Allred and Denise for your wonderful help!

Was so worried, but everytging turned out great!

I cannot recommend them enough. The pre-surgery intake was so helpful. They even offered to talk with our young daughter about any of her concerns. It helped to know that they cared so much. We could not be happier with their work.

My 2 year old daughter chipped her tooth and needed a pulpotomy, and in order to do so she needed general anesthesia. Dr. Allred was amazing and made sure we were well informed. It made us feel comfortable knowing how prepared he was, and how well she was being monitored. She went to sleep, and woke up without having any memory of what could have been a scary procedure.

We had to have a broken tooth extracted and crowns put on for my 3 year old daughter which required general anesthesia. My family was so nervous because we had never done anesthesia and my daughter is allergic to many antibiotics, so any new medicine is a bit nerve wracking. However, Dr. Allred and Kelly made us very comfortable by patiently explaining what would happen and answering all of the numerous questions we had prior to the procedure. On the day of appointment, Dr. Allred again patiently answered questions before the procedure and took great care of our daughter during and afterwards.

We had to do a dental treatment for my 5 year old son which required general anesthesia. My wife and I were very scared to put him on anesthesia but Dr Ryan and Denise made us very comfortable by patiently explaining the procedure. On the day of treatment, Dr Ryan took care of our son like his own and it was such a relief that everything went well.

I have a 2 year old son who was recommended to get dental procedures done to prevent further issues, as a mother my biggest fear was for him to be put out. I have never experienced anastisia...especially with a young child. Long story short we went through with the procedure and I am so excited to share with all other parents reading this that Dr. Allred is the most caring, conforting, educated Dr. The entire team treated us like family. After they took him to the room I knew he was in good hands. I will never forget him and his team for making a nervous situation become a relief. Thank you so much for reading, I hope I can help someone else with their decision. Dr. Allred is the best!
