Michelle Yang
Dr. Michelle Yang is a board trained pediatric dentist who earned her dental degree from Oregon Health and Science University (OHSU) in 2012. She brings extensive experience in compassionate, relationship centered pediatric dental care and has a strong commitment to preventive, minimally invasive dentistry.
Dr. Michelle is known for her calm and reassuring approach and for helping children feel safe and confident in the dental chair. She understands that every child is different. Some are curious and chatty. Others are shy or a little nervous. All are welcome here. She takes the time to meet each child where they are using age appropriate language, patience, and lots of encouragement.
She is passionate about helping children build healthy habits and positive feelings about dental care from an early age. Dr. Michelle believes that prevention, education, and kindness are the foundation of lifelong oral health and happy smiles.
Originally from Korea, Dr. Michelle moved to Portland as a student and is excited to care for families in the community she calls home. Outside of the office, she loves traveling, cooking, hiking, and spending time with her husband and their Labradoodle. |
