OUR STORY · EST. 2018 IN PORTLAND 100% Independent & Dentist-Owned

We built the dental studio we wished existed.

Growing up, Dr. Maya Lin was terrified of the dentist — the sterile fluorescent lights, the cold instruments, and the rushed 5-minute checkups that felt like an interrogation.

In 2018, she teamed up with cosmetic specialist Dr. Marcus Vance to reimagine dental care from scratch. We replaced waiting-room clipboards with an espresso & herbal tea bar, swapped syringes for computer-guided painless wands, and banned guilt-tripping forever.
