Know About Us

Relax! At Dr. Little's Office in Portland, we provide sedation dentistry to make your treatment fear free! Dr. Little has the tools, the technology, and the training to improve your smile easily and comfortably.

In 1993, I began studies in dental laboratory skills. I entered a prestigious dental lab school and, after graduation, began working in-house for prominent dentists who exposed me to world-class dentistry. Dr. Gordon Christiansen (see CRA) is the one who motivated me to return to school to complete my education.

Mission Statement

“Dentistry - when done properly - is about relationships. It is about patients trusting a caring practitioner and staff to do the right thing. It is about practitioners learning and knowing about the best solutions for each individual who seeks our help” - Alan Stern, D.D.S.

Ethics

This is a tough issue because in all professions there are ethical dilemmas. Dr. Clarke, who was my mentor, was the past president of the American College of Dentists and wrote the book on ethics for dentists. In my opinion, if you have to go to courses that show you how to “Sell dentistry so it doesn’t feel like selling dentistry” (which is a real course), you need to re-examine your professional ethics. In our office, we will always follow the ethics set aside by the ACD. You will always be given an explanation of all your options so you can choose which may work best for you.

Trust

Trust is earned over time. Flashy walls and expensive equipment don’t equate trust. My mentor, Dr. Clarke, believed that earning a patient's trust is priceless. It takes years of building relationships with patients to begin understanding how priceless being a dentist is. Dr. Clarke passed away in 2004 and, after 20 years, I now understand... I just wish he was still here so I could tell him how right he was.
