The Art of Smile Making – Meet Our Cosmetic Dentist, Dr. Owen Combe

At the Art of Smile Making, we are committed to providing the very highest standard of care to our Portland and Lake Oswego-area dental patients. With an artistic hand, our cosmetic dentist, Dr. Owen Combe, fashions radiant smiles using the latest technologies and materials. Meet our other skilled cosmetic dentists, Dr. Lance Rosenau, and the rest of our skilled staff.

R. Owen Combe DMD

Owner and Director, The Art of Smile Making

“The best reward is restoring health and giving a patient the ability to smile again. Even greater is the life change and transformation that goes along with smiling, it can improve relationships, self esteem, even overall disposition. The endorphins released by smiling relieve stress, increase energy, and even improve your immune system. A recent University of Maryland study even suggests that smiling more (even intentionally) might increase your life expectancy.”

Philosophy

Dr. Owen Combe’s diverse background and education clearly positions him as the preeminent Portland-area cosmetic dentist. As a professionally trained artist with a Bachelor of Fine Arts from the Pacific Northwest College of Art Museum School, a Doctorate of Dentistry from Oregon Health & Science University, a Bachelor of Science from Portland State University, and an associates degree in Computer Science, Dr. Combe blends art, science, and technology to provide patients the most advanced cosmetic procedures directly from our clinic, The Art of Smile Making.

“We spare no expense in offering The Best when it comes to patient treatment and cosmetic dental procedures, weather it be a simple broken tooth or full mouth reconstruction. We can say that because it is true. What separates us from mediocrity? The hundreds of hours of continuing education every year above and beyond those required by the state; this is an investment in us and our patients. In addition, and probably the most important factor aside from choosing an artist/dentist you trust is our in-house lab and personal ceramist…

“Restoring your smile at any other clinic puts the control of your case in the hands of an outside lab. If things are not perfect at your delivery appointment this means up to a two week wait for every correction, more injections, and multiple removal of your temporaries. At The Art of Smile Making, Las Vegas Institute-trained master ceramist Clay Rosenau is working with us to help custom color and change details as patient and doctor see fit. There is no wait, and there is no chance of having a smile permanently cemented that you are not completely happy with. This just isn’t possible at any other cosmetic dental clinic in Oregon or Washington.

“I invite you to experience a complimentary consultation in our Portland and Lake Oswego area office with a respected cosmetic dentist from our team. We can walk you through the process, and even show you "before" and “after” pictures of your smile with computer imaging technology.”

“Over 30 years of successful private practice as a Portland-area cosmetic dentist in Newberg and Lake Oswego has helped me learn the newest methods and perfect my skills and techniques in cosmetic and restorative dentistry.

This training plus 30 years of experience enable me to treat not only basic cosmetic cases, but more advanced full mouth reconstruction.”

You want to be sure that you are doing the right thing and that your dentist is someone you can trust. You can be assured that my staff and I will go out of our way to answer questions, keep you informed, and put you at ease.”
