Provides cosmetic and restorative care, from smile design and veneers to larger treatment plans. Care is provided by a general dentist.
OUR STORY
Lacquer Dental was founded by Dr. Aylin Paredes to be a Portland practice where artistry and science meet, and where the dentist who plans your smile is a general dentist who also restores it.
Dr. Paredes built the practice around the details that make dental work look like your own teeth: shade, translucency and proportion.
What began as a small cosmetic practice is now four general dentists working side by side, and the philosophy has not changed. Every treatment is approached with a craftsperson's care, and every plan is explained in plain words first.
We use digital smile design, guided implant planning and imaging because they let us show you the plan before we begin. They don't change the facts that results vary and that we go over the risks and your other options first.

WHAT GUIDES US
These values inform every decision we make — from the materials we choose to the way we communicate with you.

We aim for dental work that looks like your own teeth, so shade, shape and proportion get as much of our time as the repair itself.

We show you what we see, explain every option, and give you a written estimate before treatment, so the decision is yours and nothing comes as a surprise.

We don't have patients — we have relationships. We get to know you and your family, and we plan care around both.
